About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
The front springs are defective and break thus collaspsing the struts and making the vehicle hard to handle. The plastic intake manifild coolant channel walls are to thin and tend to blow-out. Finally, the backlit rear reflector tends to burnout to ofter for a integrated part. The vehicle will not pass inspection because the reflector is an integrated part of the tail light assembly. The cost of replacement is prohibitive so the reflctor remains burned out on many of the other T-birds I see on the road causing a problem with the vehicle's visibility. The ilumenator in the reflector should be servicable.
