Complaint Summary

SEATS

Owner Narrative

The massage seat on the driver and passenger front seats malfunctioned. The drivers seat massage pillows stayed inflated on the seat and backrest. Driving to work this morning the massage pillow on the drivers seat popped. This was a very loud almost gunshot type of sound which caused me to swerve my vehicle and almost create an accident. This is due to the massage seat malfunctioning. Ford Motor corp is aware of the issue with the seats and have issued a Technical Service Bulletin but no recall. This is a serious safety issue as this could have caused a major accident while operating the vehicle. Ford Motor Corp refuses to fix the issue with my vehicle as it is no longer covered by my warranty.
