What NHTSA owner complaints mean

These figures count complaints that vehicle owners and other members of the public have submitted to NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation. NHTSA uses complaints, together with other data, to spot safety issues that may warrant an investigation and to check whether existing recalls go far enough.

  • They are reports, not findings. Each complaint is the submitter's own account. Its presence in the database does not mean NHTSA has confirmed a defect.
  • Counts are not defect rates. The data doesn't say how many vehicles were sold, so a raw count can't tell you what share of vehicles had a problem.
  • Popular models collect more complaints. A model sold in large numbers will usually gather more complaints than a rare one, simply because more people own it.
  • One complaint can name several components. Totals by component can therefore add up to more than the number of complaints.
  • Coverage starts in 1995. NHTSA's complaint file contains complaints received since January 1, 1995.

Use complaint patterns as a prompt for questions: whether a recall covers the issue, whether the vehicle you are considering has had the fix, and what a mechanic finds on inspection. For confirmed safety defects, see the recall list for this model.

  1. NHTSA campaign 08V344000

    Reported

    Trailer Hitches

    Model years 2006–2007

    Knapheide is recalling 108 MY 2006-2008 pro series truck beds equipped with an icc bumper which included a provision for a ball hitch. There may be an insufficient weld attaching the hitch channel to the supporting structure.

    Consequence:
    This could result in bending of the hitch channel or the hitch could be pulled off the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
    Remedy:
    Knapheide will offer two remedies to its customers: (1) for those customers who do not use the hitch, the hitch will be removed from the truck bed and replaced with an icc bumper; or (2) for those customers who need a hitch, a receiver hitch assembly will be added to the existing hitch assembly and all suspect weld joints will be re welded. The recall began on August 15, 2008. Owners may contact knapheide at 1-877-473-5763.

  2. NHTSA campaign 06V471000

    Reported

    Engine and Engine Cooling › Engine › Diesel

    Model year 2006

    On certain low cab forward chassis trucks, the unsealed injection pressure regulator connector is exposed to the outside environment due to its location on the back of the engine and the engine's location in the vehicle. The connector has a heat insulation sleeve that may retain water around the connector.

    Consequence:
    Over time, the collected water may potentially corrode the connector leads resulting in various engine performance concerns including; running rough, difficult or unable to be started, or engine stall increasing the risk of a crash.
    Remedy:
    Dealers will replace the injection pressure regulator connector, inspect for corrosion, and replace the heat insulation. If corrosion is present, the connector will be replaced. If corrosion is not present, dielectric grease will be applied free of charge. The recall began on February 13, 2007. Owners may contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673.

    On certain medium duty chassis cabs, the cab entry step platforms on either side of the vehicle may crack during normal use.

    Consequence:

    Remedy:
    Dealers will install reinforcement brackets on both cab entry step platforms. The recall began on December 1, 2005. Owners may contact Ford at 1-800-343-5338.

How to read this recall list

This list shows every safety recall campaign NHTSA has on file for this make, model and model year. It is not specific to one vehicle: a recall often covers only vehicles built in a certain date range or with a certain part, and many of the vehicles it covers will already have been repaired.

What each recall field means

FieldWhat it tells you
Campaign numberNHTSA's unique ID for the recall, such as 20V771000. Quote it to a dealer or when searching NHTSA's site.
ComponentThe system or part involved, for example air bags, brakes or electrical software.
SummaryWhat the defect or non-compliance is and which vehicles are covered.

  • Some recalls carry an NHTSA consumer advisory, “Do Not Drive” or “Park Outside”. Follow it until the repair is done.
  • A single campaign often covers several models or model years, so the same campaign number can appear in more than one list.
  • Recalls are shown as NHTSA publishes them. Very recent campaigns may take time to appear.
