MY DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DIDN'T DEPLOY WHEN I WAS IN A CAR WRECK ON SATURDAY OCTOBER 7, 2017..

Was in the car during a very slow, around 5mph front end collision. The knee airbag went off at low speed. I. Exited the vehicle to look at damage and then I sat back in the driver seat. Upon sitting back in the driver seat I noticed the smoke that had cleared from the airbag had started to build back up and became more dense. I had my feet outside the door while sitting in the driver seat and when I when I looked around I noticed a fire getting larger and larger from the pillar to my left, between the rear seat and the front driver seat. I didn’t have anything to put it out so I tried to blow it out and it was getting larger and larger melting more of the plastic up the pillar. I ripped off a work shirt I had and was able to smother the fire with it. Had I not been able to smother it this fire would have engulfed the whole vehicle. After observing the damage the wiring harness had shorted out and burnt/ caught on fire that goes from the front of the vehicle to the back.there was no prior damage to the vehicle and no damage to the car other than the front end collision during the accident.

HELLO! FORD SHELBY GT 350'S HAVE A FATAL ENGINE FLAW THAT WILL LEAD TO THE DEATH OF MANY OWNERS. THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WHERE THE OIL FILTER SIMPLY FALLS OFF THE ENGINE BECAUSE THE ENGINE IS PRONE TO A TON OF VIBRATION. AS A RESULT, OIL IS SPILLED EVERYWHERE AND CAN RESULT IN THE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO OIL HITTING THE TIRES. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE NOW, THANKFULLY THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED IT WHILE IN THE GARAGE AND THUS THERE WAS NO RISK WHILE DRIVING. HOWEVER THE SECOND TIME, WHICH OCCURRED LAST NIGHT, WAS WHILE I WAS ON A WINDY MOUNTAIN ROAD. I AM LUCKY TO BE ALIVE RIGHT NOW TO WRITE NHTSA THIS LETTER. RIGHT BEFORE THE CAR COMPLETELY LOST OIL PRESSURE, DUE TO THE FILTER FALLING OFF, I NOTICED THAT THE HANDLING WAS OFF, ALMOST AS IF THE CAR HAD A LOW/FLAT TIRE. THANKFULLY I WAS GOING WELL UNDER THE RATED SPEED LIMIT AFTER I NOTICED THIS OR ELSE I WOULD HAVE LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR AND LIKELY WOULD HAVE GONE OFF THE SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS CASES ONLINE WHERE OTHER OWNERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE FILTERS FALLING OFF DUE TO VIBRATION ISSUES. MY CARS OIL CHANGE HAS ALWAYS BEEN DONE BY THE DEALERSHIP (TWO DIFFERENT FORD ONES JUST TO ENSURE THIS ISN'T A CASE OF A BAD TECHNICIAN). THERE HAVE BEEN CASES WHERE PEOPLE ARE ON THE RACE TRACK WITH THESE VEHICLES AND THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENS. IT WILL SAVE MANY PEOPLE'S LIVES IF THESE VEHICLES ARE RECALLED.

WE PURCHASED OUR NEW MUSTANG FROM HASTING'S FORD IN GREENVILLE, NC IN NOV 2017 FOR MY WIFE'S BIRTHDAY. THIS WAS OUR FOURTH MUSTANG AND WE REALLY LOVED THE MUSTANG UNTIL THIS PURCHASE. ON DEC 13TH 2017 MY WIFE WAS DRIVING IN A 20 MPH ZONE AND MADE A RIGHT TURN AT ALMOST A STOP AND THE ACCELERATOR SUDDENLY SPED UP ON ITS OWN WHICH CAUSED HER TO GO UP ON THE CURB AND HIT A BUILDING. THE CAR STOPPED AND SHE PUT IT IN REVERSE AND IT DID IT AGAIN. SHE FINALLY TURNED THE CAR OFF. WE HAD IT TOWED TO THE BODY SHOP, WE CHECKED THE CAR MAT AND IT DID NOT CAUSE THE PROBLEM. THE BODY SHOP TOOK IT TO A LOCAL FORD DEALER AND THEY CHECKED THE COMPUTER AND STATED THAT THERE WERE NO CODES LISTED. WE RESEARCHED AND IT STATES THAT IT THE THROTTLE BODY FAILS THAT THERE WOULD BE NO CODE SENT. WE CONTACTED THE DEALER HASTING'S FORD AND THEIR COMMENT WAS THAT NO RECALLS WERE ON THE VEHICLE AND THAT WAS THEIR RESPONSE. WE CALLED FORD AND THEIR RESPONSE WAS THAT THEY HOPE IT WOULD NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. WE HAD THE CAR DAMAGE FIXED OVER $10,000.00 FOR THE REPAIRS FOR A CAR THAT HAD 497 MILES ON IT. NOW WE HAVE A NEW CAR THAT MAY KILL US ONE DAY BUT AS FORD STATED THEY HOPE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

THEN I HAD TO SWERVE TO THE RIGHT TO AVOID ANOTHER CAR HEAD ON. THE CAR WENT BACK OVER THE MEDIAN. THE CAR ENDED UP GOING OVER ANOTHER CURB INTO A FIELD BESIDE THE FREEWAY ENTRANCE RAMP.IT THEN WENT TO THE LEFT HITTING A FREEWAY CONSTRUCTION SIGN. AFTER HITTING THE SIGN IT CAUSED THE CAR TO ROTATE 180 DEGREES IN MIDAIR COMING DOWN ONTO THE RIGHT FRONT OF THE HOOD AND THEN LANDING ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CAR.IT THEN ROLLED ONTO THE ROOF AND CONTINUED TO ROLL ANOTHER 180 DEGREES LANDING BACK ON ITS WHEELS RESULTING IN A FULL 360 DEGREE ROTATION.

Car leaking Freon for years causing black mold throughout the car and directly in my face for years. It’s otorless but does smell musky like black mold the technician said. Repair shop stated Freon leak but can’t locate it resulting in me losing my job from being too sick to work from black mold overgrowth in my body from this car. My son and I have brain fog, digestion issues, clumsy, sinus and throat always has mucus, fatigue and overall feeling of being unwell. This has caused my now 4 year old son and I to be in and out of the hospital for about 2 years but the last year was really bad. Ford is not acknowledging this is a problem however I found a TSB listed online. Please help me get this car fixed or help me get out of this car as it is killing us resulting in poor quality of life and life long health issues that affect our lives every day.

The 2015-17 all have the same issue with the ac system as a whole, it is very faulty and not safe. This is due to a manufacturing defect. The ac constantly blows hot air even when on cold and only on to the windshield which causes visibility issues which could be fatal for me or anyone on the road. I went to ford yesterday to ask about the issue which I was told “we only have one person today that can look at it” and was later told that he wouldn’t take a look, without any reasoning. I had to go to a different company to get my car diagnosed. As I stated before this is a occurring issue with the year make and model of my vehicle.

The contact owns a 2017 Ford Mustang. The contact stated while driving 60 MPH, the front driver's side door or the front passenger's side door was inadvertently unlatched. The door lock chime reminder engaged and the door lock warning light illuminated. The contact veered to the side of the road. The contact then opened the unlatched door and closed it again. The contact stated that the failure had been reoccurring on both the front driver's side and the front passenger's side doors. The contact notified an unknown Nissan dealer, who sold her the vehicle, of the failure. The Nissan dealer referred the contact to the Ford manufacturer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they could not assist because the VIN was not included in a recall related to the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 45,000.

"I am reporting High Desert Ford (formerly Sunland Ford) for refusing to perform the remedy for Safety Recall 25S89 (NHTSA 25V572) on my 2017 Ford Mustang. Despite my vehicle exhibiting the exact 'distorted/blank image' defect described in the recall, the dealership refused the repair based on two non-compliant grounds: 1. Digital vs. Physical Defect: The dealer stated that because no 'Diagnostic Trouble Codes' (DTCs) were present, they would not replace the camera. This ignores the fact that NHTSA 25V572 identifies the root cause as internal PCB corrosion—a physical hardware failure that Ford acknowledges causes visual distortion regardless of digital codes. 2. Illegal Tie-In (Magnuson-Moss Violation): The dealership is conditioning my federal safety remedy on the removal of an aftermarket dash display. They claim diagnosis is 'impossible' with it installed, yet simultaneously claimed the vehicle 'passed' inspection. This constitutes an illegal tie-in provision under 15 U.S.C. § 2302(c), as they have failed to provide any technical proof that the display caused the internal camera corrosion identified by Ford. I have video evidence of the safety failure which the dealership refused to review. By denying this repair, High Desert Ford is knowingly leaving a vehicle on the road with a defect that increases the risk of a crash."
