We are continually getting "AdvanceTrac" warning lights on the dash. We have been unable to find a Ford dealer to work on this issue. The light normally goes away after shutting off the vehicle and restarting. However, when this light comes on, the cruise control shuts off and is inoperable until the warning light resets. We believe that the traction control system is inoperable while this light is on.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
