Complaints on fileComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Fire reported

STARTED VEHICLE NORMALLY AND AS SOON AS THE BRAKE WAS APPLIED, A LOUD 'POP' SOUND WAS HEARD BEHIND THE DASH AND A LARGE AMOUNT OF SMOKE CAME INTO THE CAB FROM THE A/C VENTS. I CONTINUED FOR ABOUT ONE MINUTE. THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF AND PARKED IN PLACE. THE SMOKE SUBSIDED. THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THE PROBLEMS INDICATED IN THE SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH RECALL AFFECTING 1993 FORD F-250 VEHICLES CAUSING UNDER HOOD FIRES. HOWEVER, AFTER CONTACTING FORD, THEY INDICATED THAT MY PARTICULAR VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, AND I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF TOWING AND ANY REPAIRS.
