Owner complaintsComplaints 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.

From owner reports, verbatim

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR CRUISE CONTROL ON MY 1993 F150 IN SEPTEMBER AND FOLLOWED INSTRUCTIONS FOR CORRECTION TO TAKE TO A LOCAL DEALER. AT THE DEALER THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS DISCONNECT TO REMOVE FORDS LIABILITY FOR POSSIBLE FIRE AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE FUSED HARNESS WOULD BE AVAILABLE AND INSTALLED IN DECEMBER. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER TODAY AND WAS TOLD IT WILL BE AROUND MARCH BEFORE THE HARNESS IS AVAILABLE. WHAT ARE A CONSUMER'S RIGHTS TO OBTAIN A REMEDY IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME? I DON'T CONSIDER OVER 6 MONTHS ACCEPTABLE AND NOT THAT FORD HAS ESSENTIALLY REMOVED THEIR LIABILITY BY DISABLING THE ITEM, THEY HAVE NO IMPETUS TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM QUICKLY. THANKS FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE. *TR

SOME TIME AGO, MY FORD F150 WAS SENT A RECALL NOTICE; THE PROBLEM WAS THAT ONE FUEL TANK WAS SENDING FUEL TO THE OTHER. I WAS TOLD IT WAS OK. THE EVENT IS STILL OCCURING WITH FUEL SPILLING FROM THE FILL PORT. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE MATTER REEVALUATED. THE DEALER TO WHICHI TOOK THE TRUCK IS BELL FORD.*AK
