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.
car gave error message of system shift fault car would not shift from park to drive and would automatically shift back into park. issue could be a bushing or solenoid issue Car has premature wear on rotors and needed to be replaced
While driving to work on I35 the a red message popped up on the dash saying "Stop Safely Now" and the engine/hybrid motor instantly completely died. Steering and breaking were almost impossible because I am not a strong person and I was nearly rear ended several times. I had no chance to get to the shoulder and was blocking the lane in the middle of traffic till I was able to get someone to tow it to a side street. Completely unacceptable and very dangerous for the car to die completely like this.
When placing my car in to park it doesn't actually go in to park. If you get out after it does this the car will roll. This is terrifying. It started to roll out my driveway after putting it in park. I have to put my emergency brake on so it doesn't roll. I have a video of the incident but I can not attach it.
Was at complete stop, heard a loud "pop" noise from my car that shook my break pedal. Break pedal has felt "squishy" and goes almost to the floor when stopping.
The contact owns a 2019 Ford Fusion. While attempting to accelerate from a stop, the accelerator pedal seized. When the contact turned off and restarted the vehicle, the accelerator pedal returned to normal. In addition, the contact stated that the brakes seized while in traffic this week, which almost caused a crash and the check manual warning message illuminated. The vehicle was taken to flammer Ford (3335 commercial way, spring hill, fl 34606, (352) 686-8255) where it was diagnosed that an auto stop/start module needed to be installed. The vehicle was not repaired, but an appointment was scheduled for April 9, 2019. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and would not allow the dealer to repair the vehicle because the diagnostic trouble code could not be read during the diagnostic test. The failure mileage was 8,070.
