I contacted a local Ford dealership: Hempstead Ford, 301 N Franklin St, Hempstead, NY 11550, (516) 363-1579 to perform multiple safety recalls issued by NHTSA. The service department refused to schedule me for service because I did not buy the vehicle from their dealership. I reported this to Ford Customer Relations and was told that they cannot force the dealership to service my vehicle. I believe this is illegal.

There is a recall for my vehicle that I cannot get fixed unless I go 150+ miles away to get it serviced at another dealership. The dealership near me, which is where I purchased new from, says it needs to go to a dealership that has a body shop which theirs does not have. I don't think it should be on me to drive half the state to get remedied and why they can't use a local body shop to perform the repair. And they won't even give me the names of dealerships that I could use. Manufacturer Recall Number 21C06 NHTSA Recall Number 21V090

My windshield wipers stopped working. It seems the wiper motor still kicks on and I can hear it move, but the wipers don-??t move and are stuck. It-??s almost as if the wipers are off track or something. Once my vehicle was stopped, I was able to move the wipers back down, but it won-??t move after that. I can still hear the motor turning on though.

F150 is experiencing interior leaking from the windshield and other areas that Ford is unable to identify the cause. This can cause visibility issues and damage to electrical components resulting in a safety issue. The leaking causes the floor mats to be wet, which have also caused my foot to slip off the control petals. This could cause an accident. Ford is not able to identify the source, they were able to reproduce the leaks in the firewall but can't identify the source. Ford doesn't acknowledge this is a major issue and has only offered to caulk and seal in the most common areas. It was in the shop for four days March 25-27 and 22-23 2024. There are no warning issues just went floor mats and visible water on the interior of my windshield which I demonstrate to the dealership.

10/24/23 from 1700 -1800 hrs, @ Wickstrom Auto Group, my 2021 Ford F150. The primary concern is that the windshield wiper motor replacement wasn't done correctly. The wiper arms are not resting correctly on the windshield when in the off position. The wiper blades rest noticeably higher than before the replacement and are different from ALL other F150s on the dealer lot. The windshield wiper arms were replaced, and the new wiper blade arms do not allow adjustment. I strongly expressed my concerns about this error and believed the wiper motor was installed incorrectly, thus causing the wiper blades to rest in the WRONG place. Further inspected the wiper issue and researched the case on the Ford website. 1. The wiper blade is not resting as designed by Ford. 2. The wiper passenger side motor cowling/hood vent/ is not installed correctly, resulting in a large 1/2 inch gap between the windshield gasket. This is likely due to the wiper arm joint not being correctly aligned, causing the joint to push out on the motor cowling. Clear visibility is critical to safely operating a motor vehicle. I fear operating an unsafe motor vehicle. The location of the resting wiper blade is an indication of a more significant safety issue. On 10/25/23 @ 1056, I met with the dealer; a mechanic corrected the cowling gap. However, the wiper's resting high position remains. A representative stated there was nothing more the dealership could do. I am concerned that this will lead to significant driving issues in the upcoming winter. The windshield wiper needs to cover the proper window space. The unprotected area will accumulate large amounts of snow and ice. Measuring the distances of over 7 INCHES will result in icing. I am concerned that ice can form and break off when driving in such a sizeable, unprotected area. Ice may cause damage to the wiper window and get lodged under the wiper arm, causing a loss of vision when driving.

Ford recall on wiper motor(22V142- March 14 2022) and wiper arm(Recall 23V163- May 2023) are taking an unreasonably long time to be rectified. The answer they give is parts not available yet. I find it intolerably too long for remediation. I truly believe Ford is purposely stalling and should be fined.

Since the recall was first issued on March 14, 2022, I contacted the local dealer 5 times (4 in person during normal maintenance and one by phone) to address the recall. Issues have happened continuously and the latest was on July 22nd, 2023. The dealer is: Joe Cooper Ford of Edmond - 600 W Memorial Rd, Oklahoma City, OK 73114 - Phone: (405) 475-9000 Every time they stated they do not have the parts to perform the fix and they would contacted me once they received the part. This is over a year and I reported to them the erratic behavior of my wipers to no avail.

It's been back to Autonation dealership 3 times already, twice I had a appointment for this recall. After I get there, they tell me that they can't get the part until late this year. Went to a dealership in Texas they tell me the part is available put only to fleet and lease program trucks. My wiper are only working on the high setting. I drive a110 mile to work and back and never know when they are going to quit. The recall has been going on for 18 months. I asked them what happens if they quit completely. They just look at me and say we don't know. Can I use the Lemon Law for this

2021 Ford F-150 is equipped with 360 camera system and a backup camera. The 360 camera system failed within the first year of service. This left only the backup camera functioning. The dealer attempted to fix the camera system and resulted in all cameras including the backup camera not working. One year later ford claimed to have a part to fix all of the cameras. When it arrived at the dealer they reported that the software needed updated and the process would take approximately 3 hours. The next day the story changed again. Now it didn't need the part and Ford was advising that the software upgrade would cause more problems and not fix the cameras. The vehicle is now 2 years with 19,000 mile and still covered by a bumper to bumper warranty. The backup camera is a required safety devise on all new vehicles. I have a young child who is at risk because of this failed safety devise. Dealer reports no known fix at this time. Vehicle has been inspected by Ford dealer. Ford refuses to provide a loan vehicle until problem is resolved.

2021 FORD F150 PICKUP- Consumer states "I Purchased a new 2021 Ford F150 pickup from Capitol Ford in Carson City Nevada. I have 5-6 outstanding safety recalls. I having been trying to get the dealership to give me an appointment date for these for over a year and a half. I have also contacted Ford Motor Company who contacted the dealer last tall to try to get me an appointment. At the time the dealer told them I was scheduled to be called March of 2023 to schedule an appointment. Its now almost June and I still have not received an appointment. The next closest Ford dealer to me is over sixty miles away so it is not easy for me to go there nor do they give me a loaner or transportation to and from that dealership. I have asked Ford to buy back the pickup since, with this many outstanding safety issues I feel I paid them a lot of money for an unsafe vehicle that they and the dealer have not resolved. I'm asking you to contact Ford and get them to buy back this unsafe vehicle." Looked up NHTSA safety recalls from VIN: 21V090, 22V142, 22v193, & 23V163.

However, consumer was told that if the part failed at anytime between now & then, they would make the repair. Consumer is worried the wiper motor can fail when needed the most. Consumer questions if the repair can be made now if wiper motor were to fail, why not replace the motor now before it fails" Why should they be place in a hazardous situation and real safety concern"
