Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
I fear for my safety in my vehicle because it’s been a lot of trouble since I first bought it. The vehicle reduces power and won’t let me accelerate even though the agency said they had fixed it already, the auto stop malfunctions and messes with the vehicle’s engine. Now that this new incident happened with the engine/gasoline that the car started shaking and just wouldn’t turn on I am very concerned. The agency claims it was contaminated gas but I went to the gas station to file a police report and the gas at the gas station was completely fine. There was a recall on the “fuel injectors cracking, causing gasoline or vapors to leak at a high rate onto hot surfaces in the engine compartment.” -nhtsa and I believe this is what might be wrong with my vehicle even though it doesn’t come out with the vin. I drive from home to school, work, and the university everyday and I feel unsafe because the truck stutters which I am certain it has to do with a manufacturer gas tank error. I’m not sure what can be done in this case, but I feel like my life or the life of others is in danger driving it out in the road with all the stuttering the vehicle has been doing even from months back.

WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
Bought this car new only 10 months ago, and have had to take it in constantly. 1. Within a few weeks after purchase, the bolts came flying off the wheels while driving on the freeway causing the wheels to nearly fly off! 2. Multiple recalls for the computer system, took it in at least 3 different times, screen was blacking out and electronics went down. 3. Tail lights went completely out. 4. 3 weeks ago while driving, the Bronco completely died in the middle of a heavy traffic intersection. All doors locked me in, had to manually push vehicle to the side and call for a tow. Towed it to Ford dealer, they said the fuel system went out, they’ve had it for 3 weeks and still don’t know what’s wrong with it!! I went to see the Gen Mgr, 2 employees there said I bought a lemon. GM said if I have a lemon then the whole fleets are lemons. This is a $43,000 car and I should not be having issue upon issue continually. I want them to replace my vehicle or give me a full refund! Very dangerous to drive a car that has severe safety issues!

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
I had parked and turned off my Bronco after a 2 hour drive. When I went back outside about 30 minutes later, I started the vehicle only to get an ear piercing noise coming out of the speakers. I turned off the radio and car but it lasted about 30 seconds and then stopped. Twice again I tried to start the car and the loud noise started again and lasted 30-45 seconds. My Apple Watch registered a noise at 110 decibels. I could not stay in the car as it hurt my ears. No warning lights or anything to let me know this was going to happen. I have taken it in to the dealer and they said it was a PCM module going bad.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Vehicle has had continuous issues with loss of oil pressure. Vehicle has been to ford service dept multiple times and is still uncorrected. Issue arises when placed under mild to hard acceleration conditions, ie passing a vehicle on interstate conditions. Problem is able to be duplicated when at operating temperatures. Once oil leashed is lost, the vehicle goes into limp mode with an illuminated engine light and low oil pressure warning message in the display screen. Message will clear and vehicle will go back into normal operation once the vehicle has been shut down and restarted. The engine light will remain illuminated. This issue almost resulted in a motor vehicle collision while enroute to work this morning trying to avoid a semi that rapidly changed lanes to avoid another accident. When I went to accelerated to avoid the collision, I lost power and was almost hit.

TIRES
Potential Consequences:
Tires are Continental 225/65 R 17 On June 18, 2024 the right rear tire went flat in less than 200 yards at 15 mph in our driveway. The dealership said it was a non reparable puncture that split the sidewall. On July 28, 2024 the left rear tire went flat in less than 200 yards at 15 mph in our driveway. The vehicle has less than 2500 miles and never carries heavy loads. I understand that there was a recall on similar Continental Tires. Fortunately both of these incidents happened in our driveway. We live near the Blue Ridge Mountains, had this occurred at higher speed on a mountain road it could have been disastrous.

On more than one occasion, the speakers have emitted an ear piercing startling noise while driving. The first time it happened, i was driving and I could not get the noise to stop despite turning off the radio. My ears ached for days. It had been only a couple days since I purchase the vehicle. I took it to Ford’s service department. It stayed there for a few days only to be told they cannot find any issue with the car or software The second and 3rd time it happened, the radio was not on but my phone was connected through the USB port. The duration of the screeching was shorter but still disturbing enough to leave me shaking. Both the volume on the car radio and the volume on my phone were set to a very low setting. Screeching noise emitted was loudly deafening and a safety hazard.
