Recently, while traveling at highway speeds, the A-pillar trim detached from my vehicle and flew off, striking a vehicle behind me. Fortunately, no accident occurred, but the situation was extremely dangerous and could have resulted in serious injuries or property damage. This is precisely the type of incident the recall was intended to prevent. I have reached out to my local dealership numerous times and am told that Ford has no parts available. This is not acceptable and Ford is not handling this recall in a timely fashion.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]},{"odiNumber":11741521,"manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"04/25/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"06/02/2026","vin":"1FM5K8D81KG","components":"STRUCTURE","summary":"The contact owns a 2019 Ford Explorer.

She was traveling at approximately 45 mph on a public road and was unable to steer normally. The sudden loss of assist caused her to nearly leave her lane and almost resulted in a collision.  This vehicle uses an electric\u2011assist rack\u2011and\u2011pinion steering system. There were no warning lights or messages before or during the event. Road conditions were dry.  After the incident, steering remained abnormally heavy/intermittent. It isn't as though it mimics an old school vehicle without power steering, where it simply requires a good deal of strength. With this situation, if you work hard to make a correction, the car suddenly pulls further quickly in that direction, or in the opposite direction in a very jerky manner. The failure occurred without any prior symptoms and created an immediate loss\u2011of\u2011control hazard, especially for younger or smaller drivers who cannot overcome the sudden increase in steering force. It basically feels like it is locked up.   I am reporting this because the failure was sudden, unannounced, and nearly caused an accident. This appears to be a malfunction of the electric power steering assist system, and it presents an unreasonable safety risk.  On a related note, I am the Director of Quality for a manufacturing facility and have conducted hundreds of formal risk assessments during product design. A sudden, unannounced loss of steering assist represents a high\u2011severity, low\u2011tolerance safety hazard. In my professional opinion, this failure mode warrants an accelerated investigation.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]},{"odiNumber":11738217,"manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"02/28/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"05/15/2026","vin":"1FM5K8DH8KG","components":"POWER TRAIN","summary":"I had my transmission replaced in California on Feb 2025.

The trim remained tethered only by the keypad wiring, causing it to flail in the wind and create an immediate road hazard. Simultaneously, the vehicle\u2019s instrument cluster triggered a \"Liftgate Open\" warning, despite the liftgate being secure. I was forced to make an emergency pull-over onto the shoulder of the interstate\u2014a dangerous situation\u2014to prevent the trim from completely detaching and striking other vehicles. Upon reaching my destination, the vehicle suffered a significant electrical short. The interior lights remained on indefinitely due to the false \"liftgate open\" sensor reading, and the door keypad became completely inoperable. To prevent a total battery drain and potential fire risk from the short, I had to manually disconnect the battery. The dealership confirmed the failure but stated that current B-pillar recalls (such as Recall 25S53) currently only apply to 2016\u20132017 models, despite my 2019 model using the same defective clips and adhesive. This failure is identical in nature to Recall 24S02 (A-pillar detachment). The detachment of this trim is a documented projectile hazard. Furthermore, the resulting electrical short in the door harness has compromised the integrity of the vehicle\u2019s sensor system. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate the expansion of the B-pillar recall to include the 2019 model year to prevent further highway incidents.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]},{"odiNumber":11733267,"manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"01/11/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"04/23/2026","vin":"1FM5K8D84KG","components":"SUSPENSION","summary":"See attached document for complaint.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]},{"odiNumber":11731692,"manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"04/15/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"04/16/2026","vin":"1FM5K8GT8KG","components":"STEERING,WHEELS,SERVICE BRAKES","summary":"Brakes, rotors, tires and now steering column and starting gear is needing replaced after recall of rear toe link in 2019 ford explorer","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]},{"odiNumber":11731030,"manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"04/14/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"04/14/2026","vin":"1FM5K8HTXKG","components":"SEATS","summary":"The massage seat on the driver and passenger front seats malfunctioned.

I own a 2019 Ford Explorer, VIN [XXX]. In 2023, I brought my vehicle to Wayne Akers Ford in West Palm Beach due to a torque converter recall. Before the issue was fixed, their transmission technician was fired, and I was redirected to Mullinax Ford. That began a two-year ordeal of being passed around between dealerships, misdiagnosed, and ignored while the original issue persisted.  Alpaca Ford on 10th Avenue witnessed the malfunction twice but refused to repair it. I was told by Lenny, the Service Manager, and the Advisor Manager to \u201cmonitor the mileage\u201d and report back \u2014 a delay tactic that eventually allowed them to deny my repair once the issue persisted at under 30 miles. When I returned with proof, they claimed the warranty had expired. This was caused entirely by their inaction and misguidance.  To make matters worse: \u2022I was forced to pay $1,300 for motor mounts that didn\u2019t resolve the issue, despite telling them repeatedly it was unrelated. Ford covered a portion, but I was left to pay $897 out of pocket. \u2022Tim Olsen at Wayne Akers Ford has refused to provide my refund and is now ignoring all calls and communication. \u2022Ford\u2019s corporate customer service has been involved from the beginning and failed to intervene effectively \u2014 despite acknowledging the situation. \u2022I recently left a Google review describing my experience at Mullinax Ford, including my repeated denial of loaner vehicles while white customers were offered them freely.

The exterior A-pillar trim on my 2019 Ford Explorer, covered under the aforementioned recall, has caused severe issues including vibrations and a loud whistling noise around the windshield area, particularly at highway speeds. These problems are not only a nuisance but also pose a potential safety hazard, as the vibrations could lead to more severe structural damage or detachment of the trim while driving.  I have contacted several Ford dealerships in my area, as well as Ford headquarters, seeking a resolution under recall 24S02. Unfortunately, I was consistently informed that the necessary parts to correct the issue are not available. I was told that Ford had provided the parts, but they were only available for a two-week period and are no longer in stock. The person I spoke with at the dealership advised me to call back at a later time to check if the parts are available.  Additionally, when I reached out to Ford\u2019s headquarters customer relations department for further assistance, I was simply transferred to my local dealership without any other form of help or guidance. This lack of support from the manufacturer is deeply frustrating and concerning.  Furthermore, one of the dealerships informed me that another customer with similar issues under the same recall has been waiting for over a month and has yet to receive the necessary parts. This delay, coupled with the lack of clear communication and guidance, is highly concerning, especially given the potential safety risks associated with the defect.  Given the severity of the issue and the inadequate response from Ford, I am requesting that the NHTSA intervene to ensure that Ford takes the necessary steps to resolve this safety concern promptly.  I am concerned that a serious incident can occur if not resolved.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]},{"odiNumber":11611231,"manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"08/27/2024","dateComplaintFiled":"08/27/2024","vin":"1FM5K7F81KG","components":"STRUCTURE","summary":"The contact owns a 2019 Ford Explorer.

Causing a stutter while driving and an extremely rough idle when trying to stop at a stop light/sign. This stutter happens intermittently and unexpectedly weather driving at a high rate of speed or low. A light never came on and no codes were able to be read. The last day I was able to dive my car the idle suddenly dropped so low mid driving. Thankfully I was going at a low rate of speed and able to get my vehicle off the road. I took my vehicle back to the Ford dealership and asked that they re-evaluate as the problem had gotten worse. That\u2019s when I was informed my torque converter had malfunctioned. Not only did the dealership provide me with that information, but they also informed me that this is a known issue and has affected so many Explorers in this way, Ford had issued multiple TSBs to their service departments notifying them of this issue. I have attached screenshots of TSB 20-2271 and 22-2287, showing Ford is aware of these issues being reported on the 2016-2019 model Explorers. In my research, I\u2019ve also found that the NHTSA has had a previous case, 17S16, showing Fords directive to replace faulty Torque Converters back in June of 2018. It is clear that Ford has not taken this issue seriously and continues to produce and sell vehicles with this bad part. This stutter and sudden decrease in idle could cause a wreck. Thankfully it did not with me, but it is an ongoing issue that could in the future. Ford has acknowledged there\u2019s a problem but has not yet issued a recall on this part, for my VIN or cars like mine. I urge the NHTSA to investigate and encourage Ford to make this right and improve the quality of the torque converters they\u2019re producing and selling to consumers.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]},{"odiNumber":11493991,"manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"11/05/2022","dateComplaintFiled":"11/17/2022","vin":"1FM5K8GT0KG","components":"STEERING,POWER TRAIN","summary":"When I took a left hand turn coming from a stop-sign the control arm on my front right passenger side busted.

Because the control arm broke, it caused significant other damage to my vehicle due to the inability to steer my vehicle and the wheel to no longer be controlled by the steering wheel. There were no warning signs and nothing to signal to me that my car was in fact having issues.
