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.

My Ford Flex stalls while driving anywhere from 10 mph (in residential area) to 80 mph on highway. Electrical is still working the engine shuts off and I lose control of gas/brakes. Three warning signs pop up at the same time: Check brake system, collision warning not available, and service advance trac. Once I restart the car, the codes will disappear. The problem was intermittent at first, but now it's occurring more frequently. I'm too scared to drive my car now. Ford isnt being much help. I need help.
Both of the tail lights have water intrusion about 3 0Z of water within the chamber. I have replaced lights several times.shortening out which has caused a problem with safety and traffic violations.
I placed the SUV in park, turned it off (the car was stationary). As I leaned on the vehicle to get out of it, I notice it rolled back. Because it was unusual, I push on the car frame to ensure everything was okay. When I pushed the vehicle, it continued to roll out of my garage. I had to run and jump in the car, restart it, and put in in the park position again. This caused great concern for me because my small children were in the car. After this occurred, I called Ford to report it. Recently, I've done research and realized that some of the 2012-2014 Ford Flex vehicles were recalled due to this problem. fox6now.com/2014/08/14/Ford-recall-your-car-could-roll-away-even-if-its-parked/. when I called Ford to report, I specifically asked them did they have any knowledge of the vehicle being in park but disengaging and rolling and the response I received was no. The person suggested I put the emergency brake on until I could figure out what was wrong. This seems to have not been the truth as there was a recall for this problem in 2014. Although my vehicle was not included in that recall, I am having that problem.
Ithe interior lights stayed on, door sensors malfunctioned, engine power went off, and alarm would go on intermittantly. These problems happened while the car was moving and when it was parked.
