This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2000 Ford F150. The contact stated that while driving 5 mph, there was noise from the vehicle and the spark plugs began misfiring. The vehicle was driven home where a mechanic inspected the failure and advised the contact that the plugs were fractured and were blown from the compartment. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was notified who stated there were no recalls. They offered no other assistance. The failure mileage was 175,000.
The vehicle was parked in front of my home, and about 30 minutes after the vehicle was parked, it caught fire. The vehicle had been turned off for about 30 minutes before it began to smoke and then caught fire and flames burned through the entire front of the vehicle. The fire then spread and burned through the tire before the fire department was able to contain and put out the flames.
