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.

FORD RECALL 11S21 GAS TANK STRAP RECALL PERFORMED AT LUCAS FORD IN BURLINTON NJ. THEY SAID THE STRAP PULLED THROUGH ROTTED FRAME AND FORD SAID BECAUSE THE RECALL ONLY SAYS THEY HAVE TO REPLACE RUSTED STRAPS THEY WILL NOT REPAIR. THEY TOLD THEM TO PUT NEW STRAPS ON LEAVING REAR ONE NOT CONNECTED. IF THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL THIS IS A FAIL AS MY TRUCK COULD STILL HAVE THE TANK DROP AND BURST INTO FLAMES. THIS IS THE SAME AS TOYOTA RECALL FOR POORLY TREATED FRAMES JUST FORD WAS ALLOWED TO ONLY REPLACE 20 DOLLARS STRAPS THAT PROBABLY AREN'T EVEN THE PROBLEM. *TR
