SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Traveling on I-77 in Bland County Virginia. I was doing 70 mph and had to slow to 40 mph due to a tractor trailer. Brakes failed, made it off the interstate safely. I went to a garage. They installed front brake pads which did not help. Upon checking, they recommended a vacuum pump as my brakes were no better and all of the oil was leaking out of my car. I checked with Ford and my warranty expired on May 16, 2022. Cannot even drive the car due to the oil and brake issue. The vacuum pump had disintegrated.

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
While I was driving on the freeway during traffic times, the vehicle would not accelerate upon pushing the gas pedal at first. All of a sudden it would jerk forward very fast. This could have caused me to unintentionally rear end the car in front of me or get stuck without being able to move with cars coming fast behind me. This could have cause an accident and myself or others could have been harmed. This happened multiple times during one trip. The check engine light came on a few days prior to this incident. The codes were ran for the check engine light and came up for "emissions" issues. The vehicle is currently at Norm Reeves Ford in Cerritos, Ca. They are stating it is a "flywheel issue and pump not properly aligning with the clutch". I am estimated to be charged $4,660.00 in repairs.

Potential Consequences:
We took our car in for oil change and tire rotation, we were informed by service manager tires couldn't be rotated because lug nuts couldn't be removed, did we want lug nuts replaced which we did, after done ask why did the lug nuts fail on a car with less than 21000 miles was told it was a split lug nut poorly designed and when seal breaks and swells they can't be removed. In my mind this is a safety issue as we wouldn't have been able to change a flat tire if the service department couldn't change and we wouldn't have known this issue existed had we not had the car in for oil change and tire rotation. So if we had had a tire issue on the highway we would not been about to change our tire, leaving us stuck on the road. I don't have a clue the number of cars on the road with lug nuts that couldn't be removed. I believe Ford should replace all these poorly designed lug nuts
