I FEEL THAT THIS PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY POOR ENGINEERING BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD MOTOR BUT THEY REFUSE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILTY. THIS FIRE WAS NOT MY FAULT ! THIS FIRE WAS CAUSED BY A FAULTY PLASTIC BRAKE RESERVOIR UNIT THAT LEAKED ON THE MAIN WIRE HARNESS CAUSING A SHORT THEN A FIRE. MY INSURANCE COMPANY PAID FOR THE REPAIRS AFTER I PAID OUT $500 DOLLERS FOR MY DEDUCTIBLE. I FEEL THAT FORD MOTER SHOULD REIMBURSE ME MY $500 DOLLARS. MY INSURANCE COMPANY REFUSES TO PURSUE THE MATTER. FORD MOTOR REFUSES TO TAKE ACTION UNLESS MY INSURANCE COMPANY TALKS TO THEM. MY HANDS ARE TIED. I'M JUST A CONSUMER FIGHTING TWO GIANTS. THANKS FOR TAKEING THE TIME TO HEAR MY COMPLAINT. MIKE N.*AK

MAJOR WIRE HARNESS IS NEAR PLASTIC MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER, SOME WIRES ARE UNDERNEATH UNIT. CAUSE: OIL BRAKE FLUID LEAKING FROM PLASTIC RESERVIOR CAUSING WIRE TO DISSOLVE, THEN CAUSED A FIRE TO START WHEN STARTING VEHICLE.

THE INCIDENT OCCURRED ON MAY 28, 2011 WHEN MY WIFE HAVING THOUGHT WHAT SHE HEARD WAS THUNDER LOOKED OUT OF THE KITCHEN WINDOW INTO THE BACKYARD, AND SAW SMOKE COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE A 1995 FORD BRONCO XLT. SHE THEN NOTIFIED ME AND I PROCEEDED OUTSIDE TO FIND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INDEED ON FIRE. THE FIRE STARTED UNDERNEATH THE HOOD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT DIRECTLY OVER THE DRIVERS SIDE TIRE. I ATTEMPTED TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE USING A WATER HOSE, BUT WAS UNABLE TO DO SO. AT THE SAME TIME MY WIFE THEN CALLED THE LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT AROUND 9:30 A.M. AND THEY ARRIVED SHORTLY THEREAFTER. BY THE TIME THE FIREMEN WHERE ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE THE ENTIRE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AS WELL AS THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE WINDSHIELD ALONG WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WINDOW HAD SHATTERED. THE PASSENGER SIDE TIRE WAS DAMAGED, AND THE DRIVERS SIDE TIRE WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED. PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT THE IGNITION WAS NOT ON, THE ENGINE WAS NOT RUNNING, AND THE VEHICLE HAD NOT RAN FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE WEEK. AFTER DESCRIBING TO THE FIRE MARSHAL THE EVENTS THAT LEAD TO THE FIRE HE STATED THAT HE HAD ENCOUNTERED SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLES OF THE SAME MAKE AND YEAR MODEL WHICH WAS DETERMINED TO BE A RESULT OF A SPEED DEACTIVATION SWITCH. I THEN CALLED FORD AND USING THE VIN NUMBER DISCOVERED THAT THE THIS VEHICLE DID INDEED HAVE A RECALL FOR SUCH A SWITCH. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD AND AM CURRENTLY WAITING FOR A REPLY ON THE MATTER.

I HAD AN UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT OCCUR YESTERDAY WITH MY 1995 FORD BRONCO. ABOUT AN HOUR OR SO AFTER RETURNING HOME (VEHICLE PARKED IN DRIVEWAY), I NOTICED SMOKE AND FIRE POURING-OUT FROM UNDER ITS HOOD. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE WITH A NEARBY GARDEN HOSE, BUT THE VEHICLE IS A TOTAL LOSS. THE SAD THING IS THAT ALTHOUGH A 1995, IT HAD NEVER SEEN AN UPSTATE WINTER AND WAS AS CLOSE TO MINT AS IT GETS FOR A VEHICLE OF ITS AGE. THE 'HOT SPOT' APPEARS TO BE IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF THE MASTER CYLINDER, FOR WHICH FORD DID ISSUE A RECALL FOR A FAULTY CRUISE CONTROL HARNESS WHICH COULD RESULT IN A FIRE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. IRONICALLY I DID HAVE THE RECALL WORK PERFORMED...... THOUGH THIS SEEMS AWFULLY COINCIDENTAL. *TR
Jun 03, 2010
THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT CAUGHT ON FIRE. RESULTS SHOWED THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE IN THE ENGINE. *JB *BF
Apr 25, 2005
I HAVE AN ELECTRIC RECLINING SEAT (DRIVER SIDE) IN MY 1995 FORD BRONCO. SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING THE BACK OF THE SEAT COLLAPSED BACKWARD. I NARROWLY ESCAPED COLLIDING WITH ANOTHER CAR AND THE FREEWAY WALL. I WAS ABLE TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A SAFE STOP. I TOOK THE BRONCO TO FORD. THEY SAID THE FRAME TWISTED AND BROKE. I AM NOT HUGE! ABOUT 240 LBS. THEY CHARGED ME $350.00 TO FIX IT. I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT IT AT THE TIME, BUT IN 1997 I WAS REAR ENDED AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE SEAT AT THAT TIME. IT COMPLETELY COLLAPSED RENDERING THE AIR-BAG AND SEAT BELT INEFFECTIVE. A NEW SEAT WAS PUT IN AT THAT TIME. SO THIS SEAT IS ONLY ABOUT 6 YEARS OLD. THIS SOUNDS TO ME LIKE A POOR DESIGN AND A SAFETY HAZARD. *NLM
Jun 25, 2003
THE STARTER MOTOR CABLES AND SOLENOID SHORT OUT BECAUSE THE STARTER MOTOR IS LOCATED NEAR THE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL SO THAT ROAD SPRAY IS DIRECTED AT THE STARTER MOTOR. THE FAILURE HAS HAPPENED TWICE AT $500 A INCIDENT. *NLM

COMPLETE FAILURE OF REAR DIFFERENTIALS - ALL INTERNAL PARTS DESTROYED. FORD DEALER THAT REPAIRED VEHICLE GAVE NO REASON FOR FAILURE. NO EXTERNAL DAMAGE. VEHICLE USED NORMALLY - NO OFF-ROAD OR HEAVY TRAILER USE. CONTACTED FORD VICE PRESIDENT, NOT COMPENSATION OFFERED. PAID $3K TO REPAIR REAR END WITH NO DEALER WARRANTY. REASON: NOT SURE WHY IT WENT OUT BEFORE. FORD STATED THAT DUE TO FAILURE HAPPENING 36 MONTHS A 14 DAYS AFTER VEHICLE MANUFACTURED - NOT COVERED UNDER POWERTRAIN WARRANTEE. CONTACTED BBB, NO ASSISTANCE. SOLD BRONCO AND WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER FORD PRODUCT AGAIN DUE TO THE WAY I WAS TREATED BY THE COMPANY. THE DEALER THAT FIXED THE UNIT TOLD ME THAT HE "FELT" IT WAS DUE TO A DEFECT IN MATERIALS IN THE REAR END - BUT COULD/WOULD NOT PUT THAT IN WRITING.*AK

TIRES

DT: CONSUMER STATED THAT THE REMINGTON WIDE BRUTE TIRE FAILED. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIRE THAT FAILED. . THE FIRST ONE WAS ON THE INSIDE WALL WHICH CREATED A BUBBLE. THE RUBBER PULLED AWAY FROM THE TIRE. THE TIRE WAS NEVER HIT ON A CURB NOR HAD ANY OTHER PUNCTURES. CONSUMER CALLED THE DEALER AND FILED A COMPLAINT. THE SECOND TIRE FAILED ON THE OUTSIDE TREAD WHICH RIPPED OFF. THE TIRE HAD NOT BEEN HIT, AND THE BANDS SNAPPED TWICE. THE TREAD WAS STILL GOOD ALTHOUGH. THE LOCATION WAS ON THE REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE, AND THE SECOND ONE WAS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR. CONSUMER HAD NOT CALLED THE TIRE MANUFACTURER. THE VEHICLE WAS VIBRATING AT 60 MPH. CONSUMER PURCHASED BOTH SETS OF TIRES AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP. THE CONSUMER CHANGED THE FIRST TIRE WITH ANOTHER BRAND, AND THE SECOND TIRE WAS ALSO A DIFFERENT BRAND. *AK

I BOUGHT MY 1995 BRONCO NEW FROM ACADEMY FORD IN LAUREL MD. I HAVE KEPT UP ALL MAINTENANCE AND WARRANTY REPAIRS. A FEW DAYS AGO IN MID APRIL 2005 I NOTICED SOME CORROSION ON THE REAR SPRING SHACKLE BRACKETS. I INSPECTED THE BRACKET CLOSER AND FOUND THAT THE BRACKETS HAD ORIGINALLY BEEN PAINTED WITH A HEAVY COAT OF BLACK PAINT. UNDER THIS BLACK PAINT ON ALL THE BRACKETS CORROSION HAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED THE INTEGRITY OF THE BRACKET. LARGE FLAKES OF RUSTED METAL ABOUT 1/16" THICK CAME OFF IN MY HAND. I'M NOT SURE HOW MUCH OF THE BRACKET METAL IS LEFT. AS SOON AS I ASCERTAINED THE EXTENT OF THE CORROSION I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE SITUATION ASSESSED BY MY LOCAL FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT. MY CONCERN IS THAT THESE CRITICAL BRACKETS SHOULD NEVER HAVE RUSTED TO A STATE OF COMPLETE DECAY . THESE BRACKETS HOLD THE REAR LEAF SPRINGS TO THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE. SHOULD THEY FAIL DUE TO CORROSION I FEEL THE CONSEQUENCES WOULD UNDOUBTABLELY BE CATASTROPHIC. *AK THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN SUBJECTED TO ANY UNDUE TREATMENT. I DO NOT PULL TRAILERS OR PLOW SNOW OR ANY OTHER CONDITIONS WHICH MIGHT CAUSE UNDUE STRESSES TO THE VEHICLE'S FRAME. I WAS VERY CAREFUL IN WINTER TO WASH OFF ANY ROAD SALTS OR SANDS THAT COULD ACCELERATE CORROSION. BUT MY BEST EFFORTS TO PROLONG THE VEHICLES LIFETIME ARE THWARTED BY A PROCESS THAT DID NOT PROTECT A CRITCAL BRACKET WHOSE FAILURE IS EMMINENT. THE BRONCO IS A FINE VEHICLE, I'VE HAD A FEW PROBLEMS THAT SEEMED REASONABLE FOR ME TO FIX, BUT THE CORROSION TO THE REAR SPRING SHACKEL BRACKETS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THESE BRACKETS MIGHT OVER THE LIFETIME OF THE VEHICLE SHOW SOME SURFACE RUST BUT NOT TO BE CORRODED TO THE POINT OF FAILURE.*AK
Apr 18, 2005
LEFT REAR COIL SPRING BROKEN AT 91,000 MILES. HAROLD ZIEGLER FORD NOW WANTS TO CHARGE $182 TO REPLACE IT. WHEN VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 30,000 MILES AND DURING A ROUTINE MAINTENANCE VISIT TO THIS DEALER, THE DEALER WITHOUT MY PROMPTING REPLACED THE RIGHT REAR COIL SPRING UNDER WARRANTY. IT'S OBVIOUS TO ME THAT FORD KNEW IT HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE SPRINGS SEVERAL YEARS AGO.

COMPONENT- CRUISE CONTROL CUTOUT SWITCH RECALL# 05S28. PERFORMED REPAIRED ON 6 JUNE 2006. CALLED MY DEALERSHIP REGARDING THIS RECALL, THEY ADAMANTLY REFUSE TO PERFORM A REPAIR ON MY VEHICLE DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY VEHICLE REPAIR HISTORY SHOWS NO OPEN RECALLS. HOWEVER AN SUPPLEMENTAL ORDER ORDER#16 WAS ISSUED SOMETIME IN 2016 BY FORD REGARDING THIS SAME MATTER STATED THAT THE REPAIRS PERFORMED DO NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND A NEW PART MUST BE INSTALLED. MY VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE THE REPAIR THAT CORRESPONDS TO THIS SUPPLEMENTAL ORDER, HENCE IT SHOWS NO OPEN RECALLS, APPARENTLY IT WAS IGNORED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER. I CALLED FORD NATIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE AND I WAS TOLD THAT IS UP TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER SERVICE MANAGER INFORMED ME THAT DUE TO NO RECALLS OPEN SHOWN IN MY VEHICLE REPAIR HISTORY I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR LABOR AND THE PART. THE DANGER OF FIRE IS IMMINENT IF THIS IS NOT REPAIRED ASAP. I CANNOT DO THE REPAIR MYSELF OR OTHER THAN AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR IF ANYTHING HAPPENS I WILL BE LIABLE. I NEED THAT YOUR AGENCY ASSISTS ME WITH THIS VERY CRITICAL SITUATION.
