Cool new TSB Feature

FTE is pleased to announce we have a new TSB lookup system for Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda vehicles.

Instead of using the clunkly interface the NHTSA offers, or the various web sites that minic this interface (actually using the NHTSA interface behind the scenes) we have a quick and easy point-and-click interface. Additionally, you can also use power search features to search the TSB database!

Database is automatically be updated weekly.

Check it out!
https://www.ford-trucks.com/tsb/tsb.php

Be sure to tell people you know on other Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda web sites! This system covers all models, not just the trucks, suvs and vans.

It looks like it would work really good. The only problem is (and I checked this on different models in different years) that the first link in each vehicle works but all the ones below it link to the first one. Do you know what I mean? Just thought I would let you know. Great job thought Ken!

Like the layout and is easier to get to your vehicle.

Don't know if it is my computer or what but no matter what bulletin I click on shows the first one on the list. I can't get it to show any others.

I picked 2000 Navigator and every tsb i select goes to the first tsb in the list.. In other words i pick a tsb about the fuel tank and it still takes me to the first tsb listed which is about the suspension.. just fyi!!

Is there a way to get the contents of the TSB's? All I'm finding is the title/description of them.

Unfortunately the NHTSA only provides the summaries, not the full text. We're working on the full text stuff....

Thumbs up

What you guys have done is GREAT! Now if we really could get the "full text stuff", that would be REALLY GREAT! Thanks so much for an awesome website!

Did not work for 2003 F250--unless, ford has retracted all the tsb's on it.
