2005 Ford Mustang Convertible

The contact owns a 2005 Ford Mustang. The contact stated that one day after a rainstorm she noticed several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that the headlights were inoperable due to the water leaking into the interior of the vehicle. Additionally, there was water leaking into the interior of the dashboard. There was also water coming out of the driver’s side front air vent and the interior lighting in the vehicle from the interior module and center console. The lights were flickering on and off. The contact took the vehicle to a local dealer however, the dealer was not able to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

Brought the vehicle in for airbag replacement. Made an appointment ahead of time. Left the car over night. Contacted the service dept the next day and they told me the repair was done. I went in and was handed the keys and paperwork and told it was done. I kept getting recall notices from Ford, so I contacted them to let them know the airbags had been replaced. They insisted I never brought the car in, but I have the paperwork. Upon going over the details with Ford during the first phone call. Only one airbag had been replaced, and they gave the car back to me under the impression it was safe to drive. Last week was the third time I've contacted. Each time they say they will investigate the matter and never call back. I've lost confidence in this dealership and Ford for being unwilling to admit they dropped the ball and fix the problem. Their letters say they will come to you, but that's not happening either. I would like to watch this being done, sorry I just don't trust them anymore. (I have the paperwork)

I'M HAVING THE SAME ISSUE EVERYONE ELSE IS WITH THEIR SPEEDOMETER, TACH, FUEL GAGE. IT WAS WORKING FINE, THE WEATHER WARMED UP AND IT WOULD WORK SOMETIMES. THEN IT JUST STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE I HAVE NO WAY OF TELLING HOW FAST I'M GOING. I COULD UNDERSTAND THIS HAPPENING IF I HAD 100,000 MILES ON IT, BUT AS OF YESTERDAY, 4/26/2021 IT JUST HIT 39,034. WITH EVERYONE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE, HOW IS NOT A SAFETY RECALL. I HAD TO REPLACE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AT COST OF $875. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND A DANGEROUS ONE.

I WAS PULLING OUT OF WORK ONTO A BUSY STREET WHEN CAR WENT INTO IDLE MODE BECAUSE OF THE THROTTLE BODY DRIVE BY WIRE SYSTEM.THERE WAS NO INDICATION ANYTHING WAS WRONG OR ABOUT TO GO WRONG. GOD WAS REALLY LOOKING OUT FOR ME ON THIS PARTICULAR DAY BECAUSE THE CARS THAT WERE ON THIS BUSY ROAD WASN'T IN A HURRY LIKE THEY NORMALLY ARE AND I AVOIDED A (T-BONE)COLLISION. IT REALLY SCARED ME AND I HAVEN'T DROVE THE CAR ANYMORE AND IT'S FOR SALE. I THOUGHT IT SHOULD BE REPORTED AND I WILL TELL WHOEVER BUYS THE CAR WHAT HAPPENED UPFRONT. I'M NOT WILLING TO RISK IT DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. I SWITCHED THE KEY OFF AND STARTED THE CAR BACK UP AND DROVE IT 40 MILES HOME WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS AND IT WILL NEVER BE DRIVEN BY ME AGAIN.

JUST GOT IT DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT

TAKATA INFLATORS. I HAVE BEEN TRYING SINCE LAST AUGUST TO GET THE RECALL DONE ON BOTH MY FRONT AIRBAGS.FIRST THE DEALER(CHARLES GABUS FORD IN DESMOINES IOWA)PROMISED ME A LOANER CAR FOR THE DAY MY CAR WOULD BE IN THE SHOP,ONLY TO TRAVEL THERE 40 MILES AND THEN THEY SAY THEY HAD NONE AVAILABLE.THEN I CONTACTED FORD MOTOR CO. RECALL DEPARTMENT JUST TO TRY TO GET MY NAME OFF OF THEIR RECALL MAILING LIST DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY DON'T REALLY TAKE THIS RECALL SERIOUSLY.AFTER REQUESTING TO TALK TO A SUPERVISOR BECAUSE I WAS GETTING NOWHERE WITH THIS WOMAN ,SHE SIMPLY HUNG UP ON ME.

HAD AIR BAGS REPLACED ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO AND IT SHOWS ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE THAT BAGS STILL NEED TO REPLACED,HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE BEFORE IT SHOWS THEY WERE REPLACED?

ENGINE GOES TO FUEL THROTTLE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY OR IN TOWN & ALSO WHEN AT A FULL STOP ON ITS OWN I HAVE TO EITHER SHUT OFF IGNITION OR IF DRIVING PUT VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL THEN HIT THROTTLE TO STOP THE HIGH RPM EXTREMELY UNSAFE. HAVE NOT DRIVEN CAR IN OVER TWO MONTHD

TAKATA RECALL. WE NEED A FIX. WE KEEP GETTING RECALL NOTICES, WHEN WE CALL THE DEALERS, THE SAME ANSWER EVERY TIME, WE WILL CALL YOU WHEN WE GET THE PARTS. NO RETURNED CALLS. OUR FAMILY HAS A FORD AND CHEVY THAT HAVE BEEN ON THE RECALL LIST FOR "4" YEARS!?! NEITHER HAVE A FIX FOR IT. I UNDERSTAND TAKATA IS TO BLAME, BUT AN ALTERNATIVE FIX SHOULD BE MADE TO TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AIRBAG RECALL - THE MANUFACTUER HAS BEEN SENDING REMINDERS ABOUT THE AIRBAG RECALL FOR YEARS NOW AND EVERY TIME I CHECK WITH MY NEAREST DEALERSHIP THEY PUT ME IN THE LIST TO RECIEVE PARTA BUT I NEVER GET THE CALL THAT THEY ARE IN. AND THE DEALER SAYS THE PART JUST ISN'T IN YET. AND THIS HAS BEEN OVER 4 YEARS NOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 FORD MUSTANG GT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THE TRANSMISSION SENSOR AND GEAR RATIO WERE MALFUNCTIONING. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN BACK HOME. THE FOLLOWING DAY, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR UNLESS IT WAS SHIFTED INTO LOW GEARS. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER ABLE TO SHIFT INTO HIGHER GEARS. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 174,283.

THERE IS AN APPARENT DESIGN FLAW IN 2005 MUSTANGS AS I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AS TO WHAT I AM EXPERIENCING. DUE TO THIS DESIGN FLAW AFTER A RECENT DAY OF HEAVY RAIN 1 HEADLIGHT AND 1 SIGNAL LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF ONCE THE CAR HAS BEEN SHUT OFF. I RESEARCHED AND APPARENTLY THE SMART JUNCTION BOX (SJB) GOT WET AND THE ELECTRICAL UNIT IS NOW MALFUNCTIONING. THERE WAS ALSO A STRONG BURNING SMELL WHEN I GOT HOME THAT NIGHT AS WELL. SPOKE WITH AN ONLINE MECHANIC TECHNICIAN AND HE CONFIRMED THAT THE SJB NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THERE HAS BEEN A LONG HISTORY OF THE CAR LEAKING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WHENEVER IT RAINS DUE TO THE DESIGN FLAW. ALSO MY GAS GAUGE NEVER READS PROPERLY, INSIDE LIGHTS ARE ALSO DIM/OFF AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN GOING ON AND OFF FOR NEARLY A YEAR AND MY MECHANIC COULD NOT DIAGNOSE WHY THE REVIEWS ONLINE SAID WHEN THEY SPOKE TO FORD THAT ADMITTED THAT IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT BECAUSE THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL THAT THEY WILL NOT REPAIR THIS FOR FREE. ESTIMATES I READ PUT THE COST AROUND $1000 TO GET THIS FIXED AND DO NOT WANT TO PAY THAT KIND OF MONEY ESPECIALLY WHEN FORD ADMITS TO KNOWING THERE IS A PROBLEM. I AM HOPEFUL THAT WE CAN GET FORD TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS. IT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM SINCE THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAN CAUSE A FIRE FROM REPORTS I HAVE READ. THIS HAPPENED TO MEET ON 12/21/18. I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND PARKED THE CAR AND SHUT IT OFF. AS I LOCKED THE CAR I NOTICED THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT AND PASSENGER SIDE SIGNAL LIGHT STAYED ON AND I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO MAKE THEM SHUT OFF. ALSO THERE WAS A STRONG BURNING ODOR WHEN I LIFTED THE HOOD.

AFTER WE HAD THE FIRST AIRBAG RECALL REPLACED WE STARTED TO EXPERIENCE THE FLICKER 9F THE AIRBAG LIGHT. WE ASSUMED THIS WAS DUE TO THE NECESSITY OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG NEEDING TO BE RECALLED. OUR SERVICE TECHNICIAN DOESN'T AGREE. THEY SAY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER NEEDS REPLACING. THE ONLY INFORMATION I CAN FIND ON THAT IS THAT ALL OTHER GAUGES FAIL IF THE CLUSTER NEEDS REPLACING. THAT IS WHY I FEEL THAT THE LIGHT IS ON DIRECTLY BECAUSE OF THE AIRBAG RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL: I'VE BEEN CALLING MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP FOR THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF SINCE I GOT THE LETTER ABOUT THE RECALL ON MY PASSENGER AIRBAG. EVERY TIME I CALL ITS ALWAYS THE SAME "WE DON'T HAVE ANY PARTS FOR THE RECALL. WE WILL NOTIFY YOU WHEN WE GET PARTS IN" AND THEY NEVER CALL BACK. I WANT TO GET THIS FIXED SOONER RATHER THAN LATER AND I THINK IVE GIVEN SIOUX CITY FORD MORE THAN ENOUGH TIME TO GET PARTS IN.

RE: NHTSA RECALL 16V-384: IN JULY 2016 FORD ANNOUNCED A RECALL BUT NEVER HAD THE PARTS READY. IN DECEMBER 2017 FORD SENT A LETTER STATING THAT THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR THE PARTS. THEY ALSO SUGGEST NOT TO USE THE PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS FIXED. THIS IS A JOKE. IF THAT ISSUE IS SO RELEVANT TO SECURITY, HOW CAN FORD AFFORD TO DO NOTHING OVER AN 18 MONTH PERIOD. ALSO, HOW CAN THEY SUGGEST THAT WE NOT USE THE PASSENGER SEAT (OTHER THAN TO COVER LEGAL EXPOSURE). ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BUY ANOTHER CAR TO BE ABLE TO TRAVEL TOGETHER??

FORD SENT ME A RECALL NOTICE TELLING ME NOT TO ALLOW ANY PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE AIRBAG HAS BEEN REPLACED. THIS IS MY WORK CAR AS I AM IN REAL ESTATE AND THE LOSS OF THE CAR WOULD SERIOUSLY AFFECT MY BUSINESS. I HAVE SPOKEN TO FORD LOCALLY AND NATIONALLY AND THEY SAY THAT THEY WILL NOT PROVIDE A LOANER CAR AS A RESULT OF THIS DEFECT REGARDLESS OF THE EFFECT ON MY BUSINESS. CAN YOU HELP TO DIRECT ME TO THE RIGHT AREA TO COMPLAIN.

TAKATA RECALL AS WELL AS PROBLEMS FILLING THE GAS TANK. WHILE STATIONARY TRYING TO PUMP GAS IN TO THE GAS TANK THE GAS PUMP WILL SHUT OFF AFTER PUMPING NO ORE THAN 1/16 OF A TANK THEN REQUIRING YOU TO DRIBBLE GAS IN TO THE TANK WITH THE PUMP REGULARLY SHUTTING OFF EVERY FEW SECONDS AND NEVER FILLING THE TANK WITH OUT THE PUMP SHUTTING OFF COMPLETELY, AND THIS HAPPENS AT ALL PUMPS IN EVERY STATE AND EVERY BRAND OF GAS. ONCE YOU PUMP AS MUCH GAS AS THE PUMP WILL ALLOW YOU HAVE TO HOLD TE THROTTLE PEDAL DOWN TO THE FLOOR TO GET THE CAR TO START AND THEN YOU HAVE TO FEATHER THE PEDAL TO KEEP THE ENGINE RUNNING WHICH CAUSES THE ENGINE TO RACE AND IS VERY DANGEROUS.

TAKATA RECALL--I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IN JUNE OF 2016. MY COMPLAINT IS WITH FORD'S LACK OF RESPONSE: A YEAR AND A HALF LATER THEY STILL HAVE NOT PROVIDED REPAIRS FOR THIS RECALL. A LETTER MAILED IN DECEMBER 2017 SAID THE REMEDY PARTS ARE STILL DELAYED. THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE RESPONSE.

TAKATA RECALL. FORD SENT A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE DATED DECEMBER 2017, IN REGARDS TO A PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR: 16S26. IN THIS LETTER, FORD TELLS ME THERE WILL BE NO PARTS AVAILABLE UNTIL AT A MINIMUM OF SPRING 2018, AND WORD FOR FORD: "WARNING: UNTIL REMEDY PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE, DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO SIT IN THE FIRST ROW PASSENGER SEAT. THE AIR BAG COULD RUPTURE DURING DEPLOYMENT IN A CRASH AND CAUSE INJURIES OR DEATH. WHEN THE FRONT ROW PASSENGER SEAT IS NOT OCCUPIED, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY, ELIMINATING THE RISK." FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS STATED THERE ARE NO LOANERS DUE TO THIS..JUST THAT I CANNOT HAVE ANY PASSENGERS IN MY CAR. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY, AND FIND IT RIDICULOUS MY ONLY OPTION IS TO NOT HAVE ANY PASSENGERS. FORD NEEDS TO LEGALLY PROVIDE A RENTAL CAR AS THEY FEEL THEY DON'T NEED TO ASSIST THE CUSTOMERS THEY ARE PUTTING IN DANGER.

TAKATA RECALL -THIS RECALL WAS COMMUNICATED IN JULY, 2016. SINCE THEN, I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES. I'M BEING TOLD THAT A REPLACEMENT IS NOT AVAILABLE.

I PURCHASED MY CAR NEW MARCH 1, 2005. I HAVE DONE ALL OF THE SUGGESTED MAINTENANCE THROUGH THE DEALER. IN 2011 - WATER POURING IN UNDER DASH FRONT PASSENGER FLOOR. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY COULDN'T FIND THE LEAK. I STARTED TO WET VACUUMING THE WATER OUT. THEN THE CAR STARTED TO SMELL LIKE MOLD. I FINALLY CALLED MY NEPHEW WHO WORKS FOR FORD IN ANOTHER CITY. HE CLEANED OUT THE DRAIN IN FRONT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AND DRIED OUT THE CAR. WHY DIDN'T THE MECHANIC AT LANDMARK KNOW ABOUT THE DRAIN? AROUND THIS TIME THE CAR STARTED TO LOCK AND UNLOCK ITSELF WHILE PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY. CALLED DEALER NO HELP. CALLED NEPHEW HE SAID WIRING ISSUE. THE LOCKING AND UNLOCKING STOPPED. SINCE THEN THE LOCKS TRY TO RELOCK ANYTIME I ACCELERATED FROM A FULL STOP. I HAVE FOUND MY WINDOWS ROLLED DOWN. I NEVER LEAVE MY WINDOWS DOWN. I AM A BIG STICKLER WHEN IT COMES TO LOCKING MY CAR UP AND I DON'T LEAVE MY WINDOWS DOWN. IT HAPPENED AGAIN THIS LAST WEEK. NEXT CAME THE TRUNK. IT WOULD UNLOCK WHILE I WAS DRIVING. FINALLY REMOVED THE FUSE TO MAKE IT STOP. THE NEXT FAIL WAS THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. NOTHING WORKS RIGHT. SPORADICALLY THE SPEEDOMETER WORKS BUT CAN STOP ANY TIME. LUCKILY THE ODOMETER WORKS SO I USE THE TRIP METER TO KNOW WHEN TO GET GAS. RIGHT NOW MY CAR LIES DEAD IN THE DRIVEWAY. THE CD CHANGER STARTED SHUFFLING CD'S WHEN THE CAR WAS RUNNING OR PARKED. PROBLEM WAS IT HAD NOT BEEN TURNED ON. I HAVE ON OCCASION SMELLED SMOKE IN THE CAR WHILE DRIVING. FROM RESEARCHING THE INTERNET, EVIDENTLY THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHORTING OUT DUE TO WATER GETTING INTO THE FUSE BOX DUE TO THE DRAIN ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. MY CAR ONLY HAS 107000 MILES ON IT. FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND HAS KNOW. THEY NEED TO MAKE IT RIGHT. OH AND TO TOP IT OFF, I TOOK IT TO A FORD SPECIALIST AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR. $370 LATER MY CAR IS STILL DEAD.

TAKATA RECALL TAKATA IS FILING FOR CHAPTER 11. MY DEALERSHIP DOES NOT HAVE PARTS FOR MY CAR AND CAN'T GET THEM BECAUSE OF THE CHAPTER 11 , SO THAT MEANS I CAN'T DRIVE MY CAR WITH A PASSENGER WITHOUT RISKING THE LIFE OF THE PASSENGER. THE DRIVER SIDE HAS BEEN REPLACED.

TAKATA RECALL - I RECEIVED NOTICE THAT THE COMPANY IS FILING CHAPTER 11 AND I STILL HAVE AN OUTSTANDING RECALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG (THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS ALSO RECALLED BUT I HAVE HAD THAT ONE REPLACED ALREADY). I WENT TO THE RECOMMENDED WEBSITE (WWW.AIRBAGRECALL.COM) TO SEE ABOUT OBTAINING A FREE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG BUT THE RECALL STATUS SAYS 'RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE.' HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO RESOLVE THIS SAFETY ISSUE?

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN ASKING MY LOCAL DEALER WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG WILL BE REPLACED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE SAME QUOTE FOR YEARS, "WHEN FORD FINDS A NEW SUPPLIER FOR THE TAKATA AIR-BAG WE WILL HAVE ONE FOR YOU". MY FAMILY CANNOT RIDE IN MY PASSENGER FRONT SEAT. IF THIS IS A MANDATORY RECALL, THEN WHY ISN'T FORD MADE TO REPLACE THE PART? WHY CANNOT FORD JUST USE A NEW AIRBAG IN PLACE OF THE OLD AIR-BAG? I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MANY MECHANICS THAT THE FRONT DASHBOARD OF RECENT YEAR MUSTANGS TAKE THE SAME STYLE OF AIRBAG. IF ANOTHER PERSON IS INJURED, IT WILL BE ON THE HANDS OF NHTSA FOR NOT FORCING THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG. I LIVE IN ONE OF THE HOTTEST, MOST HUMID CLIMATE CHANGING AREAS IN THE USA. SUMMERS OF HUMID 105 F. DEGREE, AND WINTERS DOWN TO 20 DEGREES. MY MUSTANG IS A CONVERTIBLE AND RECEIVES 100% OF THE HUMIDITY WHEN THE TOP IS DOWN.

THE FORD DEALER NEVER REPLACED THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS NAMED IN THE NHTSA RECALL# 16V384, ALSO KNOWN AS MANUFACTURER RECALL# 16S26 THESE MUST BE REPLACED BY FORD MOTOR CO, AND/OR TAKATA, FOR SAFETY REASONS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

TAKATA RECALL I AM COMPLAINING TODAY ABOUT SARASOTA FORD. MY CAR WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD NOT WORK AND IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH ELECTRICAL. I HAD MY FRIEND TAKE MY CAR THERE BECAUSE I HAD TO RETURN BACK TO THE MIDWEST. I DID NOT WANT TO DRIVE 19 HOURS WITHOUT WIPERS. I FIGURED SINCE IT WAS THERE I WOULD CALL AND HAVE THEM TAKE CARE OF THIS AIRBAG RECALL. I WAS TOLD EVERYTHING WAS TAKEN CARE OF AND I PAID THEM OVER THE PHONE AND WAS GOING TO FLY AND PICK IT UP THAT WEEK. HURRICANE IRMA MADE THAT IMPOSSIBLE BY THE TIME I DID PICK UP MY CAR I NEVER SPOKE TO ANY OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS SAFE TO DRIVE 19 HOURS HOME. I HAD TO EVEN WALK IN THE BACK PARKING LOT BECAUSE THE SECRETARY WHO DID HELP GET MY KEYS COULDN'T DRIVE A STICK. THERE WAS A BAG OF FOOD LEFT IN MY BACKSEAT AND MAGGOTS WAS IN MY BACKSEAT . I KNEW THEY WERE SWAMPED SO I DIDN'T EVEN COMPLAIN. I WAS ON MY WAY BACK TO KC AND MY CAR WON'T START WHEN I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. I IMMEDIATELY CALL SARASOTA FORD AND THEY PUT ME ON HOLD FOR A LONG TIME. I FINALLY HUNG UP AND SOME LOCALS HELPED ME POP START MY CLUTCH. I DROVE TWO MORE HOURS AND MY CAR STARTED OVERHEATING. I PULL OVER AND ITS STEAMING. I HAD TO GET A HOTEL ROOM IN ALABAMA SOMEWHERE AND A TOW TRUCK. IT ENDED UP BEING THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING. I THOUGHT THAT SARASOTA WOULD OF GAVE MY CAR A FULL DIAGNOSTIC TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM. I JUST WENT TO THE AIRBAGRECALL.COM BECAUSE I GOT ANOTHER REMINDER TO FIX RECALL THIS WEEK AND IT MY STILL HAS A AIRBAG RECALL. I AM JUST LUCKY MY CAR ONLY BROKE DOWN AFTER GETTING FIXED AT SARASOTA FORD. I COULD OF WRECKED AND THE AIRBAG WOULD OF BEEN FAULTY.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED MULTIPLE NOTICES OF THIS RECALL FOR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS. I CONTACT ALL AMERICAN FORD IN HACKENSACK AND FORD CORPORATE. BOTH STATE THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO AFFECT REPAIR DUE TO UNAVAILABILITY OF PARTS FROM TAKATA. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE AIRBAG FAILURE IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. I JUST WAS MY CAR REPAIRED. NOW I RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE TAKATA BANKRUPTCY. WHY CAN'T I GET MY FORD MUSTANG REPAIRED BY FORD OR REPLACE THE AIRBAG WITH SAFER ONES?

THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IN MY 2005 FORD MUSTANG ARE STARTING TO FAIL. SO FAR FUEL GAGE AND TACH OUR INOPERTABLE. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT ALOT OF MUSTANG OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN A RECALL SINCE THEY KNOW THEY HAVE A STEPPER MOTOR ISSUE IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTERS.

FORD ISSUED A PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL IN JULY 2016 ALMOST ONE YEAR LATER THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE APPROPRIATE PARTS TO CORRECT THE RECALL - SOME EFFORT BY THE GOVERNMENT ON BEHALF OF CONSUMERS NEEDS TO TAKE PLACE TO ENCOURAGE FORD TO SOLVE THE SUPPLY PROBLEM NOW.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A RECALL FOR MY PASSENGER AIR BAG IN JULY 1916. IT IS NOW JUNE 2017 AND REPLACEMENT PART IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THIS DELAY IN REPLACEMENT PART IS TOTALLY ACCEPTABLE, ESPECIALLY FOR A CRITICAL SAFETY SYSTEM.

MUSTANG IS STUCK IN LIMP MODE. CAN NOT REV ENGINE ABOVE 5 MILES PER HOUR.

I PURCHASED MY 2005 FORD MUSTANG V6 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IN JULY OF 2016. AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE WORKING FINE BUT ABOUT A MONTH LATER I NOTICED THE FUEL GAUGE WAS SITTING AT E SO I ATTEMPTED TO FILL IT THINKING I HAD AN EMPTY TANK WHICH MEANT I SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PUT 14-16 GALLONS IN AND AS I WAS REFUELING I NOTICED IT KEPT SHUTTING OFF EVEN THOUGH I HAD JUST STARTED THE PUMP EVENTUALLY I GOT IT FILLED AND ONLY PUT IN ABOUT 6 GALLONS WHICH I THOUGHT WAS ODD BUT I WENT WITH IT AND GOT BACK IN MY CAR STARTED IT UP AND NOTICED THAT THE GAUGE WAS STILL SITTING AT E AT THAT POINT I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG BUT I FIGURED IT COULD WAIT SINCE I KNEW HOW FAR I COULD POTENTIALLY GO ON A FULL TANK BUT THEN AFTER I LEFT AND HEADED FOR HOME I NOTICED THAT MY SPEEDOMETER SAID I WAS GOING 60 BUT EVERYONE WAS BLOWING PAST ME AT LEAST 10MPH FASTER WHEN THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 60. SO I PULLED OVER AND NOTICED THAT AT A STOP THE SPEEDOMETER CAME TO REST AT 35MPH I WAS ABLE TO FIX IT BUT IT KEPT HAPPENING I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH THAT I DIDNT GET PULLED OVER BECAUSE I HAD NO IDEA HOW FAST I WAS GOING. THEN FOR A WHILE THAT STOPPED HAPPENING BUT EVERY NOW AND THEN AND AT AN INCREASING RATE THE ENGINE KEEPS STALLING LIKE ITS NOT GETTING ENOUGH FUEL WHEN I STOP AT AN INTERSECTION OR STOP SIGN EVEN THOUGH I HAD JUST FILLED THE FUEL TANK THE DAY BEFORE AND HADN'T DRIVEN MORE THAN 50 MILES. THE MILEAGE AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENTS BEGINNINGS WAS ~24,000 MILES THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 34,000 AS OF 5/15/17.

ALMOST 1 YEAR HAS PASSED AND THERE IS NO SOLUTION YET.

AFTER HEAVY RAIN FOR A COUPLE WEEKS. I WAS DRIVING STRAIT, IN THE RAIN ON A CITY STREET. I NOTICED MY RADIO TURNED OFF. THEN ALSO NOTICED MY HEADLIGHTS AND BLINKERS WERE ALSO NOT WORKING. AFTER REACHING MY DESTINATION BEFORE IT GOT TOO DARK I STOPPED AND TESTED ALL LIGHTS INCLUDING BRAKE LIGHTS. ALL OF THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS WEREN'T WORKING, THE GAS LIGHT CAME ON (ALTHOUGH I HAD ATLEAST A HALF TANK) TCS LIGHT AND ALSO THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT WERE ON IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. AFTER PARKING THE MUSTANG IN THE GARAGE FOR A COUPLE WEEKS UNTIL I HAD TIME TO CHECK THE STATUS OF THE CAR. I NOTICED THE FLOOR OF THE CAB (PASSENGER SIDE) WAS DAMP. THE CAR BATTERY WAS DEAD (LESS THAN A YEAR OLD, RED TOP OPTIMA) AND THERE WAS MOLD ACTUALLY GROWING IN PARTS OF THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR. I DID SOME RESEARCH REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND FOUND IT COMMON FROM A FAILED PLUG UNDER THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS NEXT TO THE A/C FILTER. CAUSING THE WATER TO FILL UP BETWEEN THE FIREWALL AND THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, AND ULTIMATELY LEAKING INSIDE THE CAB ONTO THE SJB (SMART JUNCTION BOX) LOCATED DIRECTLY BEHIND THE FIREWALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE FOR IT CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IF ELECTRONICS FAIL WHILE DRIVING AND ALSO THE FACT THAT THERE IS MOLD GROWING IN MY CAR FROM THIS ISSUE. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND NEEDS ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY

I WAS TOLD I WOULD RECEIVE FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS ONCE THE PARTS WERE RECEIVED. I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE ANY MORE INSTRUCTIONS.

TAKATA RECALL - I, ALONG WITH OTHERS, AM STILL WAITING FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG TO BE REPLACED BY FORD. IT HAS NOW BEEN OVER A YEAR SINCE THE RECALL, AND THE PART IS UNAVAILABLE. THE PERSON AT VISTA FORD TOLD ME I SHOULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR WITH ANYONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT -- I SHOULD PUT THEM IN THE BACK, WHICH IS BARELY COMFORTABLE FOR A DOG. THEN I CALLED FORD MOTOR CO, WHOSE REP TOLD ME THAT FORD AND THE NHTSA SAY THE CAR IS PERFECTLY SAFE TO DRIVE WHILE I'M WAITING FOR THE RECALL. ISN'T FORD LIABLE AND DO YOU REALLY ENDORSE CONTINUING TO DRIVE PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT? NOBODY KNOWS WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE -- I'M EXTREMELY CONCERNED.

ON DEC 15 2016 APPROXIMATELY 8:15 P.M I WENT TO THE 711 A MINUTE UP THE ROAD FROM MY HOUSE. AS I WAS LEAVING THE STORE TO GET ON DOUBLE CREEK DR TO COME BACK HOME I WAS ENTERING THE STREET TO GET IN THE FAR LEFT TURNING LANE TO MAKE A U TURN AT THE LIGHT TO GO BACK TO MY HOUSE . I WAS SLOWLY COME OUT OF THE DRIVE WAY OF 711 PICKED UP SPEED ABOUT 15 -20 MPH . WHEN SUDDENLY THE GAS THROTTLE STARTED PICKING UP SPEED . I WAS HEADED STRAIGHT FOR THE RED LIGHT THE GAS PEDDLE QUICKLY PICKED UP SPEED . THERE WAS TRAFFIC THAT HAD A GREEN LIGHT GOING HORIZONTALLY, I TRIED EVERYTHING TO TRY AND STOP MY VEHICLE . IN ORDER TO AVOID GETTING T BONED I TURNED MY OUT OF CONTROL CAR FROM THE THROTTLE BEING STUCK TO THE FAR RIGHT SCARED FOR MY LIFE . THERE WAS A VEHICLE TURNING LEFT AND I HIT THE DRIVER SIDE OF VEHICLE ALL THE WAY DOWN THE SIDE . WHEN THAT HAPPENED . I WAS ABLE TO BRAKE SLOW DOWN THE CAR AND PULL INTO THE STORE. WITH IN A FEW MINUTES THE POLICE OFFICERS WERE THERE . THERE WAS DAMAGE TO BOTH OUR VEHICLES . MY MUSTANG WILL BE TOTALED . THE OTHER GENTLEMAN TOOK OFF IN AN AMBULANCE . THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM THANK GOD NOBODY WAS KILLED. THE INSURANCE COMPANY HAS THE CAR AND WE ARE GOING TO REQUEST AND ASK THAT FORD DO A DATA DOWN LOAD OR INSURANCE COMPANY . SO FAR FORD DOES NOT WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS MATTER . WE OPENED UP A CASE WITH FORD AND WAS QUICKLY BLEW OFF. I AM NOT BLOWING THIS OFF IN THE NAME OF JESUS AND A CHILD OF GOD . I WAS PROTECTED FROM SOMETHING THAT COULD OF BEEN DEATH. MY CHILDREN HAVE BEEN IN THIS CAR OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS AND THIS COULD OF HAPPENED AT ANY TIME OF ME GOING FASTER SPEEDS LIKE ON THE FREEWAY. FORD NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS AND I'M NOT STOPPING TILL THEY TAKE RESPONSIBILITY , BEFORE SOMEBODY IS KILLED . *TR

EVER SINCE I GOT MY MUSTANG THE FUEL GAUGE WAS ACTING UP AND WOULD SOMETIMES GIVE ME A CORRECT READING BUT MOST OF THE TIME IT JUST SITS AT EMPTY EVEN AFTER REFUELING. THEN JUST RECENTLY I STARTED DRIVING INTO WORK WHEN I NOTICED THAT MY SPEEDOMETER SAID I WAS DOING ABOUT 100 MPH ON CITY STREETS AND CONFIRMED IT WAS INACCURATE WHEN I CAME TO A STOPLIGHT AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP BUT THE SPEEDOMETER READ 50 MPH. WHEN I GOT TO WORK I STOPPED THE ENGINE AND STARTED IT BACK UP AND I HAD TO REPEAT THIS PROCESS 7-8 TIMES TO GET IT TO RESET BACK TO 0 MPH THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT OCCURRED SINCE I GOT IT. *TR

THE DEALERSHIP SENT ME A LETTER IN JULY 2016 BUT STILL HAS NOT REPAIRED THE FAULTY AIRBAG

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE HAD MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG REPLACED THREE TIMES AND NOW THERE IS A RECALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. I GOT THE NOTICE IN MAY 2016 AND NOW IN DECEMBER 2016 I STILL CAN'T GET FORD TO REPLACE THE AIRBAG UNDER THE RECALL. IT IS A RECALL, FOR GOODNESS SAKE AND ANYONE DRIVING WITH ME COULD BE KILLED BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG...HOW LONG MUST I WAIT????? *TR

MY 05 V6 MUSTANG'S INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS GOING OUT. THE TACTOMITER STAYS AT ZERO AT ALL TIMES AND THE SPEEDOMITER VARIES. AT TIME MY SPEEDOMITER ACTS NORMAL THEN IT WILL GO BELLOW ZERO. MY SPEEDOMITER WILL FIX ITS SELF AFTER 10 - 15 MINUTES OF THE CAR BEING TURNED OFF. I HAVE NOTICED, ON THE INTERNET, THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY EXACT YEAR MODEL EVEN IF THEY HAVE REALLY LOW MILAGE. I BELIEVE THAT FORD SHOULD RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE NOT BEING ABLE TO TELL HOW FAST YOU ARE GOING IS QUITE THE SAFTEY HAZARD. I BELIEVE THAT THE ONLY REASON WHY FOR HASNT RECALLED IT YET, IS BECAUSE THEY CHARGE $500 - $800 AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO GET IT FIXED. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.

THROTTLE BODY FAILED AS I WAS DRIVING AT SPEED ON THE FREEWAY. WHEN IT FAILED, THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY WENT INTO IDLE MODE WHICH MADE IT VERY DANGEROUS TO AVOID TRAFFIC AS I ATTEMPTED TO MOVE ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE FREEWAY. THE CAR MOVED AT NO MORE THAN 5MPH! THE REPAIR IS VERY EXPENSIVE. I FEEL THAT THIS PART SHOULD NOT FAIL AFTER JUST 76,000 MILES. ATTACHED IS THE REPAIR BILL. *TR

THE AIR BAG WAS STUFFED BACK INTO ITS HOUSING AND TAPED SHUT, BUT THE SEAT BELT WAS LOCKED IN ONE POSITION DUE TO THE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. *JB

THE SPEEDOMETER IS ERRATIC. SOMETIMES IT SHOWS I AM DRIVING 40 MILES OVER THE SPEED I AM AT AND IN IDLE IT SOMETIMES SHOWS THE SPEED NEEDLE BELOW THE ZERO. SOMETIMES IT SHOWS I AM DRIVING 20MPH UNDER WHAT I THINK I'M DRIVING AT. RESULTING IN 4 TICKETS. I AM PAYING OVER $500 TO HAVE FORD REPLACE THE CLUSTER.

TAKATA RECALL. ON 3/25/15 I HAD MY DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG REPLACED PER FORD RECALL 14B09. THEN IN JULY OF 2015 I GOT A LETTER FROM FORD STATING THAT THE AIRBAG HAD TO BE REPLACED AGAIN AND WAS STILL UNDER RECALL. THE NUMBER OF THIS RECALL IS 15S21 AND FORD WOULD SEND ME A LETTER WHEN PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. IN FEBRUARY OF 2016 I STILL HAD NOT HEARD FROM FORD SO I CALLED MY DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. AT THE SAME TIME I EMAILED FORD AND THE REPLY WAS TO WAIT FOR PARTS TO BE AVAILABLE. FINALLY ON 5/25/16 I EMAILED FORD AGAIN TRYING TO FIND OUT IF PARTS WERE AVAILABLE AND I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD BE NOTIFIED IN THE "VERY NEAR FUTURE" ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF PARTS. AS OF TODAY 6/30/16 I STILL HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT THE PARTS BEING AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN SINCE MARCH 2015 THAT I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AROUND WITH A POSSIBLE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG IN MY MUSTANG. APPARENTLY THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG THEY PUT IN ON 3/25/15 MAY ALSO BE DEFECTIVE PER FORD. MY WIFE AND I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE. I ACTUALLY ASKED FORD IF THE VEHICLE WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AND THEY DID NOT REALLY ANSWER THAT QUESTION. I LIVE IN AN AREA OF HIGH HEAT IN PHOENIX AND I AM WONDERING IF OUR LIVES ARE IN DANGER DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. APPARENTLY MY VEHICLE IS ON THE PRIORITY TWO LIST FOR GETTING THE AIRBAG REPLACED WHATEVER THAT MEANS. IS THERE ANY WAY TO SPEED THIS UP? THANK YOU. *TR

OVER TIME, THE VEHICLE GAS TANK HAS DEVELOPED A CONDITION WHERE FILLING UP THE TANK PREMATURELY CAUSES THE GAS PUMP TO SHUT OFF PRIOR TO THE TANK BEING FULL OF GAS. TYPICALLY AFTER ONLY A FEW SECONDS. IF YOU TRY TO ENGAGE THE PUMP AGAIN, A BUILDUP OF PRESSURE CAN CAUSE GASOLINE TO SHOOT BACK OUT OF THE TANK AND ALL OVER THE GROUND AND THE PERSON PUMPING GAS. THE ONLY WAY AROUND THIS IS TO FILL THE TANK WITH THE NOZZLE UPSIDE DOWN. SOMEHOW THIS DISENGAGES WHATEVER SAFETY MECHANISM THE GAS PUMP HAS, AND ALLOWS THE USER TO PUMP A FULL TANK OF GAS. FORD EVEN HAS A TSB RELATED TO THIS ISSUE. IT STATES SOMETHING TO THE POINT OF A DESIGN FLAW IN THE GAS TANK. IT'S ONLY REMEDY IS TO REPLACE THE TANK, OR THEY LITERALLY SUGGEST GOING TO A DIFFERENT GAS STATION. SOME PUMPS ARE DIFFERENT AND THAT USED TO WORK, BUT AT THIS POINT THERE IS NOT PUMP THAT I DO NOT ENCOUNTER THIS ISSUE WITH.

TAKATA INFLATORS I RECEIVED A LETTER ADVISING MY MUSTANG WAS RECALLED DUE TO AIRBAGS I JUST SPOKE WITH UNIVERSITY FORD IN CHAPEL HILL NC AND WAS ADVISED THAT THEY WERE REPLACING RECALLED AIRBAG WITH SAME AIRBAG AS A TEMPERARY FIX TO SEND THE REMOVED AIRBAG TO FORD FOR STUDY. THEY WOULD GET IN TOUCH WITH ME WHEN A PERMANENT FIX WAS AVAILABLE. IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE TO REPLACE WITH A TEMPORARY FIX. MY OTHER VEHICLE A TOYOTA, AIRBAG WAS REPLACED BY DEALER WITH NONE OF THIS RUN AROUND IF THERE IS A RECALL THEN I DESERVE TO HAVE A PERMANENT FIX NOT A TEMPORARY ONE. WHILE FORD IS DRAGGING THEIR FEET MY SON WHO DRIVES THIS CAR IS IN DANGER OF LOSING HIS LIFE. I KEAN THIS IS EITHER A RECALL OR A STALL AND SOUNDS LIKE FORD IS STALLING AT THE COST OF THE LIVES OF PEOPLE DRIVING THEIR CARS. WHY WOULD I REPLACE AN AIRBAG WITH ONE OF THE SAME TYPE WHEN THE REPLACEMENT MIGHT BE DEFECTIVE AND THE ONE THEY TOOK OUT FOR STUDY MIGHT TURN OUT TO BE FINE. FORD NEEDS TO STEP UP AS THE OTHER MANUFACTURERS HAVE. TOYOTA DID NOT DO A TEMPORARY FIX, THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED MY NOTICE OF RECALL FOR DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DATED MAY 21, 2015. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD BE INFORMED WHEN A REPLACEMENT WAS AVAILABLE AND TO JUST WAIT UNTIL THEN TO CALL AGAIN. AS OF APRIL 11 2016 NO WORD FROM FORD OR MY LOCAL DEALER. WHEN I CALL THEM I AM TOLD " WE DON'T KNOW WHEN" THEN SAY MAYBE IN 3 TO SIX MONTHS. THEY ALSO HAVE SAID THAT AS MY CAR IS A FLORIDA CAR IT IS A PRIORITY. 11 MONTHS GONE AND 3 TO 6 MONTHS TO GO FOR A PRIORITY CAR. YOUR SITE SAYS THAT MANY BAGS HAVE BEEN REPLACED, BUT I CAN'T EVEN GET A GOOD TIME TABLE. HOW CAN I GET THE TRUTH FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY?

TAKATA RECALL I PURCHASED A USED 2005 FORD MUSTANG FROM TIDELAND FORD IN PAWLEYS ISLAND S.C WHEN I CHECKED ON THE RECALL LIST MY CAR WAS ON THE LIST FOR TAKATA AIRBAG, I WENT TO THE DEALER TO CHECK TO SEE IF IT HAD BEEN REPAIRED AND WAS TOLD IT WASN,T THEY CLAIM MY AIRBAG IS OF THEE OLD FORD STYLE NOT THE SAME AS THE NEWER FORDS AND FORD WILL BE REPLACING THE NEWER ONES FIRST AND NOT TO HOLD MY BREATH ON MINE GETTING MINE FIXED IN THE NEAR FUTURE BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO OLD STYLE IN INVENTORY.

DEFECT IN UNDER COWL DRAINAGE LEADS TO RAINWATER LEAKING INTO PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. WATER DRAINS DOWN WIRING HARNESS INTO THE SMART JUNCTION BOX CASING ELECTRICAL SHORTS THAT AT FIRST CAUSED THE RIGHT HEADLAMP TO SHUTDOWN AFTER 15 SECONDS. RECYCLING THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH BRINGS THE HEADLIGHT BACK ON FOR ANOTHER 15 SECONDS. THIS CONDITION RENDERS THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO OPERATE FROM SUNSET TO SUNRISE. NOW THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADLAMP HAS BEGUN THE SAME PROBLEM. I CHECKED ONLINE AND IT IS APPARENT THAT THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE FOR WHICH THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER HAS NO PART AVAILABLE TO FIX. THEY INITIALLY INFORMED ME THAT THE SMJ WOULD BE AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE LAST SEPTEMBER. THAT HAS NOW BEEN PUSHED BACK TO FEBRUARY OF 2016. THEY WANT OVER $400 FOR THE PART PLUS ADDITIONAL LABOR TO PROGRAM AND INSTALL A COMPONENT THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED YEARS AGO. THIS PROBLEM IS ALREADY COVERED UNDER A TSB AND THE DEFECT CAN CAUSE A MULTITUDE OF MALFUNCTIONS THAT COULD EASILY RESULT IN LIFE THREATENING SITUATIONS. I JUST RECENTLY CHECKED AND FOUND OVER 286 REPORTS ON FILE WITH NHTSA, YET NO APPARENT INVESTIGATIONS APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN CONDUCTED, NOR A RECALL. IT IS MY SINCER HOPE THAT NHTSA IS NOT WAITING FOR A BODY COUNT BEFORE TAKING ACTION.

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE (15S21/NHTSA RECALL 15V-319) IN JULY 2015. I CALL THE FORD DEALERSHIP ON A REGULAR BASIS AND AM TOLD EACH TIME THAT FORD IS WAITING FOR PARTS. THIS RECALL INVOLVES UNSAFE AIR BAGS. I BELEIVE THAT 5 MONTHS IS WAY TOO LONG TO HAVE TO WAIT FOR PARTS TO FIX A DANGEROUS AND LIFE THREATENING DEFECT. PLEASE ASSIST.

WHEN I SHIFT FROM PARK OR NEUTRAL POSITION TO DRIVE, THE CAR SURGES FORWARD. THIS HAS HAPPENED BOTH WHEN THE CAR IS IN DRIVEWAY STATIONARY AND INTERMITTENTLY AT A STOPLIGHT. THE DATE BELOW THAT IS REQUIRED IS INCORRECT; IT HAS BEEN DOING IT SINCE I GOT THE CAR I BELIEVE IN FEB 2005, BUT I DIDN'T THINK OF IT BEING A SAFETY ISSUE UNTIL IT WAS PASSED DOWN TO MY DAUGHTER THIS YEAR; FOR SOMEONE THAT ISN'T PREPARED, IT COULD EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT

IN JULY 2015 I RECEIVED A NOTICE OF THE TAKATA RECALL ON MY 2005 FORD MUSTANG GT. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER IN NOVEMBER 2015 AND HE SAID THAT THE REPLACEMENT AIR BAGS WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THIS HAS BEEN ALMOST 5 MONTHS AND STILL NO REPLACEMENTS.WHAT IS THE FEDERAL GOV. DOING TO SPEED THIS UP.

THIS 2005 MUSTANG WAS BOUGHT USED ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. WITHIN A FEW MONTHS WE NOTICED THE MESSENGER SIDE FLOOR WOULD BE WET WHEN IT RAINED. SOON AFTER THE SPEEDOMETER QUIT WORKING. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DID NOT COVER THE REPAIR. A FEW MONTHS LATER THE HEAT AND AIR CONTROL UNIT WENT OUT. THESE TWO REPAIRS COST OVER A THOUSAND DOLLARS TO FIX. ON OCTOBER 102015 WHILE AT THE DRIVE UP TELLER AT A BANK THE CAR WOULD NOT COME OUT OF PARK. TRIED SHUTTING IT OFF BUT WOULD NOT RESTART. SEEMED TO HAVE COMPLETE ELECTRICAL FAILURE. NO LIGHTS GAUGES OR ANYTHING ELECTRICAL WOULD WORK. IT WAS RAINING. AFTER JUMPING THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES WE WERE ABLE TO GET IT HOME. WE INSPECTED THE ECU AND FOUND GREEN AND WHITE CORROSION INDICATING WATER HAD BEEN GETTING INSIDE THE BOX.

HIGHWAY CRASH AT 75 MPH. THE MUSTANG HIT A VEHICLE THAT JUMPED THE MEDIAN . NO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT . I NEVER HAD A WARNING LIGHT OR ANY INDICATION THAT THE SRS SYSTEM WAS AT FAULT . THIS MUSTANG HAD A FULL FRONTAL IMPACT . I DID CONTACT FORD ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND I WAS TOLD { YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO LITIGATE A CASE AGAINST US } I WOULD HAVE TO PROVE THAT IF THE AIRBAGS DID DEPLOY MY INJURY'S WOULD OF BEEN LESS SERIOUS . I DID BRAKE MY NECK FROM THE IMPACT .I'M SURE THE AIRBAG WOULD HAVE HELPED ME...

WHEN TRYING TO FILL THE GAS TANK FUEL BACKED OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE AND WOULD NOT ENTER THE TANK. GAS SPILLED OUT ONTO THE GROUND.

FUEL GAUGE READING PAST EMPTY, WILL NOT SHOW ANY CHANGE IN FUEL LEVEL. OTHER GAUGES SHOWING SAME SIGNS OF FAILING. INTERNET HAS MANY COMPANIES THAT WILL FIX THE GAUGE CLUSTER, SO IT MUST BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MUSTANGS. ALSO THE LED DAYTIME LIGHTING ON THE DASHBOARD GAUGES IS VERY LOW NOT ABLE TO READ THE SPEEDOMETER OR OTHER GAUGES.

CORROSION ON LEADING AND TRAILING EDGES OF ALUMINUM HOOD.

I HAVE A VERY HARD TIME PUTTING GAS IN MY CAR . ALLOWS ME TO ONLY PUT A LITTLE AT A TIME. IT IS VERY FRUSTERATING. I SHOULDN'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM EVERY TIME I PUT GAS.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED . HAD ONLY 35,000 MILES ON IT 3 YRS AGO. A YEAR IN A HALF AGO I NOTICE ON FRONT END OF HOOD PAINT LOOKED BUBBLY. DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING OF IT, CAUSE IT WAS A VERY SMALL AREA. NOW IT IS GETTING WORSE. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS RUST. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?

MY TACHOMETER FAIL A FEW YEARS AGO. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, HE SAID ALL MUSTANG GAUGES FAIL AND TO BE HAPPY IT WASN'T THE SPEEDOMETER. SLOWLY OVER TIME ALL THE ELECTRICAL HAS BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS. SOMETIMES THE CAR WON'T START, ALL THE GAUGES STOP WORKING, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF FOR NO REASON. ALSO THE DRIVER SEAT ELECTRICAL FAILED, WAS REPLACED AND FAILED AGAIN. I COULDN'T AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED.

HESITATION IN GAS PEDAL/THROTTLE BODY. WHEN PULLING OUT FROM A STOP THERE IS A HESITATION IN GAS PEDAL. PUSH DOWN ON PEDAL AND THERE IS NO RESPONSE UNTIL PEDAL IS DOWN ABOUT HALF THROTTLE AND THEN CAR WILL LEAP AND STAY AT HALF THROTTLE AT WHICH TIME I LET OFF GAS PEDAL AND CONTINUE TO REPEAT PROCESS UNTIL UP TO A SPEED OF ABOUT 30 MPH. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. EVERY ONE I TALK TO ABOUT THIS SAYS IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL, 2005-2014 FORD MUSTANG. HOW MANY HAVE DIED FROM THIS PROBLEM AND HOW MANY MORE WILL DIE OR BE INJURED BEFORE A RECALL IS ISSUED FOR THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM?

THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LOCATED INSIDE THE VEHICLE STOPPED READING PROPERLY. AT FIRST I WAS NOT ABLE TO READ MY RPM'S GAUGE AS IT WAS SHOWING I WAS IDLING AT 3,000 WHICH WAS INCORRECT AS I CAN HEAR MY ENGINE. THEN MY OIL GAUGE BEGAN READING PAST FULL. BOTH OF THOSE ISSUES FIXED THEMSELVES (UNSURE OF HOW OR WHY) AND THEN MY SPEEDOMETER GAUGE WENT BAD. NOW THE NEEDLE IS POINTING STRAIGHT DOWN REGARDLESS OF HOW FAST OR SLOW I AM GOING. THIS IS A DANGER TO MYSELF ON THE ROAD AS I CANNOT GAUGE MY SPEED. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT OTHERS WITH THE SAME MODEL AND YEAR OF MY CAR ARE EXPERIENCING AND SHOULD BE FIXED WITH A RECALL.

THE CLUSTER ELECTRICAL GAUGE PANEL HAS SLOWLY STOPPED WORKING. FIRST THE SPEEDOMETER STARTED SPINNING OVER 360 DEGREES, THEN THE TACHOMETER WENT, FOLLOWED BY THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE, AND NOW INTERMITTENTLY THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE. ON-LINE RESEARCH SUGGESTS THIS IS A FREQUENT ISSUE MAINLY INVOLVING THE 2005 MUSTANG YEAR. FORD HAS REFUSED ISSUE A RECALL AND HAS DECLINED TO FIX THE PROBLEM ONCE THE VEHICLE HAS PASSED THE WARRANTY PERIOD (THE ISSUE ALMOST ALWAYS DEVELOPS AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD EXPIRES). FORD HAS CHARGED SOME AN EXORBERENT $800 FEE TO FIX THE PANEL. OBVIOUSLY, IT IS AN ISSUE DRIVING WITHOUT A SPEEDOMETER, TEMPERATURE GAUGE, AND OIL PRESSURE GAUGE (THE TACHOMETER NONWITHSTANDING). TO HAVE A MAJOR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ISSUE IN A STATISICALLY SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF VEHICLES OF THE SAME MAKE AND SAME CALENDAR YEAR SEEMS TO WARRANT MORE INTEGRITY ON THE PART OF FORD IN ADMITTING A TECHNICAL FLAW AND GRACIOUSLY OFFERING TO REPAIR IT. *TR

THE DAY AFTER GETTING MY OIL CHANGED (WHICH HAS BEEN DONE ROUTINELY THROUGH OUT THE LIFE OF MY CAR) ON MY WAY TO WORK THE FOLLOWING MORNING MY CAR BEGAN TO SLIP ERRATICALLY OUT OF GEAR, IT DROPPED INTO NEUTRAL WHEN GOING FROM A COMPLETE STOP (I NARROWLY AVOIDED GETTING HIT TURNING LEFT ACROSS TRAFFIC) AND THEN SLIPPED INTO REVERSE AT A STOP LIGHT, WHICH I DID NOT DISCOVER UNTIL I HIT THE GAS AND NEARLY SLAMMED INTO THE CAR BEHIND ME AT THE LIGHT. WHEN I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP I HAD THE CAR INVESTIGATED BY A THIRD PARTY TO ENSURE THAT JIFFY LUBE WAS NOT AT FAULT FOR THE DAMAGE DONE TO MY TRANSMISSION WHEN THEY CHANGED THE OIL IN THE CAR. THE REPORT CAME BACK STATING THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS EXPERIENCING CATASTROPHIC FAILURE DUE TO UNEVEN WEARING ON THE INSIDE OF THE TRANSMISSION FROM THE SERVO BARS. I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION THAT IS IN MY CAR AND I WAS FORCED TO BUY A COMPLETELY NEW TRANSMISSION FOR $4600, OTHERWISE MY 10 YEAR OLD GENTLY DRIVEN WELL TAKEN CARE OF CAR WITH LESS THAN 65,000 MILES ON IT THAT IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION WOULD HAVE BEEN BASICALLY SCRAP. THIS IS A DANGEROUS MECHANICAL FAILURE THAT IS FREQUENTLY OCCURRING AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR WORSE A FATALITY. *TR

PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED AND EVERY TIME I GO TO FILL UP THE VEHICLE WITH GASOLINE IT SEEMS TO BE DIFICULT TO INSERT THE NOZZLE ALL THE WAY IN AND GASOLINE SPITS OUT. NO RECORD OF ACCIDENTS CLAIMS AND VISUAL INSPECTION DOESN'T SEEM TO SHOW ANY DAMAGE TO THE ASSEMBLY. NO UNUSUAL BENDS IN THE NECK OF THE RECEIVER WHERE YOU INSERT THE NOZZLE. *JS

FIRST THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING OR WOULD HANG UP, THEN THE FUEL GAUGE STOPPED WORKING AND NOW ALL THE GAUGES HAVE STOPPED WORKING. *TR

NONE OF THE GAUGES WORK. I HAVE TO DRIVE PACING MYSELF WITH OTHER VEHICLES. ONLY THE ICON FOR GAS NEEDED COMES ON WHEN THE GAS IS LOW. STARTING AFTER ABOUT 10,000 MILES ON THE CAR I HAVE HAD INCREASING PROBLEMS GETTING FUEL IN THE CAR. NOT JUST MYSELF, BUT ANYONE THAT TRIES TO FUEL THE CAR. I INITIALLY STARTED HOLDING THE FUEL NOZZLE UPSIDE DOWN TO GET GAS AND THAT WORKED FOR A FEW YEARS. (ALTHOUGH YOU LOOK LIKE A DUMB ASS THAT DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO PUT GAS IN A CAR!) THIS LAST YEAR IT HAS GOTTEN SO BAD THAT I AM LUCKY TO GET 2 GALLONS IN IT, AND THAT IS WITH IT REPEATEDLY SHUTTING OFF. SINCE DAY ONE THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL MAKES A GRINDING/CLUNKING NOISE WHEN I TURN THE TIRE IN EITHER DIRECTION. IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE THE WHEEL WILL FALL OFF. MY CARS BODY ASSEMBLY IS ALSO CRAP. THE FRONT LOWER GRILL HAS POPPED OFF AND DISAPPEARED. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL, AT LEAST 10 OTHER MUSTANGS OF THIS YEAR MISSING THE SAME PART. THE PLASTIC, YES PLASTIC!, SCREWS POP OUT. THE PLACES WHERE THE INSIDE SEAMS OF THE CAR ARE SUPPOSED TO CONNECT ARE DETACHED. THE LIGHT ENCLOSURE IN THE TRUNK WILL NOT STAY ATTACHED. THE SEAT HANDLES FALL OFF. I ONLY HAVE 50,000 MILES ON THIS CAR. REPAIR SHOPS TELL ME TO WAIT FOR A RECALL, WHEN IS THAT GOING TO HAPPEN? *TR

ON THIS DAY THE OIL TEMPERATURE GAUGE STOPPED FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY. IN THE FOLLOWING MONTHS THE RPM GAUGE, THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE, AND SPEEDOMETER HAVE STOPPED FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY AND READ THE WRONG INFORMATION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 FORD MUSTANG GT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING SERVICED AT A DEALER, THE TECHNICIAN DISCOVERED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONER EMITTED A HARMFUL GAS INTO THE CABIN. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT SUSTAINED SENSATIONS OF LIGHTHEADEDNESS, SEVERE HEADACHES AND HEART PALPITATIONS THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT NOT TO ACTIVATE THE AIR CONDITIONER TO AVOID FURTHER HEALTH ISSUES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,200.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY TO 115 MPH. THE CONTACT HAD TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL IN ORDER TO SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

GAS PEDAL STUCK GOING DOWN HILL RESULTING IN AUTO RUNNING OFF ROAD AND OVER A CLIFF. THE DRIVER IS ON LIFE SUPPORT, THE PASSENGER PARALYZED WITH A BROKEN BACK. THE PEDAL STUCK ONE TIME BEFORE AND IT WAS NOT THOUGHT TO BE A RECURRING PROBLEM. AS A RESULT OF THE SERIOUS INJURIES, I AM FILING FOR THEM. *TR

THE GAS PEDAL STICK CAUSE BYE THROTTLE BODY COULD NOT STOP THE CAR.JUST ABOUT HIT A CAR WHEN I WAS DRIVING ..... *TR

EXITING THE HIGHWAY I 93 AND ENTERING I 95 S, THERE IS A RELATIVE SHARP CORNER TO TURN. BOTH MY SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER SHOWED INCORRECT SPEED AND RPM AND MADE ME BELIEVE I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO A SAFE SPEED OF 30 MPH. HOWEVER THESE GAUGES WERE NOT WORKING AND I WAS STRUGGLING TO MAKE THE CORNER. I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE FUEL, OIL PRESSURE AND WATER TEMP GAUGES NOT WORKING, BUT WITH TACHOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER NOT WORKING RELIABLE I BELIEVE THAT IT IS NOT SAFE TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE. AS A PRECAUTION, I AM USING MY NAVIGATION SYSTEM TO KNOW WHAT ACTUAL SPEED I AM GOING. LOOKING AT THE INTERNET, I AM FINDING LOTS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE DIAL STEPPER MOTORS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. IT IS A COSTLY EXCHANGE OF APPROXIMATELY $ 600 + LABOR AND WITH FORD KNOWING OF THE MALFUNCTIONING GAUGES AND NOT WARNING CONSUMERS IS REALLY UNACCEPTABLE TO ME. THESE CLUSTERS SHOULD BE REPLACED AT FORD'S EXPENSE AND NOT AT THE CONSUMER'S. THESE GAUGES WERE DESIGNED TO ENSURE SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER WERE NOT WORKING AT ALL. I READ IN VERY FORUM THAT 2005 MODELS WITH VERY SAME ISSUE. THINK FORD SHOULD RECALL THE CLUSTER. I READ THIS IN OTHER COMPLAIN AND MY OPINION IS THE SAME. "PLEASE RECALL THE GAUGE CLUSTER IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO FOR A BIG NAME COMPANY LIKE FORD. ORIGINAL OWNER". *TR

. I GOT IN MY CAR AN STARTED THE ENGINE. I THEN NOTICED MY FUEL GAUGE AND SPEEDOMETER WERE NOT WORKING AT ALL. I HAVE ALWAYS TAKEN CARE OF MY MUSTANG AN I THINK FORD SHOULD RECALL THE CLUSTER. THERE'S BEEN PLENTY OF 2005 MODELS WITH VERY SAME ISSUE. PLEASE RECALL THE GAUGE CLUSTER IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO FOR A BIG NAME COMPANY LIKE FORD. ORIGINAL OWNER. *TR

THE INCIDENT REPORTED BELOW ALSO HAPPENED TO ME. FORD REPLACED THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AT NO CHARGE TO ME. I GOT IN MY CAR AN STARTED THE ENGINE. I THEN NOTICED MY FUEL GAUGE AND SPEEDOMETER WERE NOT WORKING AT ALL. I HAVE ALWAYS TAKEN CARE OF MY MUSTANG AN I THINK FORD SHOULD RECALL THE CLUSTER. THERE'S BEEN PLENTY OF 2005 MODELS WITH VERY SAME ISSUE. PLEASE RECALL THE GAUGE CLUSTER IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO FOR A BIG NAME COMPANY LIKE FORD. *TR

WATER IS COMING FROM UNDER THE DASH BOARD WHEN IT RAINS AND CAUSING A BIG FLOOD IN MY VEHICLE. *JS

I GOT THE CAR @42,500 OR SO MILES. THERE WAS A BAD PUDDLE OF WATER AFTER IT RAINED. NEAR THE SMART JUNCTION BOX IS WHERE IT APPEARS TO BE GETTING IN. I HAVE READ ALOT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. FOR SURE A DEFECT THAT FORD SHOULD FIX... AS ANOTHER PERSON ON THIS SITE MENTIONED, I AM SURE THAT MAJOR ELECTRICAL DAMAGE COULD POTENTIALLY TAKE PLACE (I FORCED MYSELF TO COVER THE CAR AT ALL TIMES). THE GAS TANK IS DIFFICULT TO FILL UP ALL THE WAY. I CANNOT SIMPLY PULL THE GAS PUMP "TRIGGER" AND LOCK IT. THE PUMP STOPS, DUE TO THE TRIGGER BEING "TRIPPED" (AS IF THE TANK WAS FULL). SO I HAVE TO HOLD DOWN THE TRIGGER AGAIN (THE FUEL PUMP USUALLY GETS "TRIGGERED" 20 TIMES PER EVERY FILLING OF THE TANK). SUPER ANNOYING AND A KNOWN DEFECT THAT NEEDS A NEW GAS TANK TO BE CORRECTED. HOW DOES FORD NOT CORRECT THIS? *JS

SINCE ABOUT A YEAR AGO, NOVEMBER 2013, THIS VEHICLE HAS SHOWN MULTIPLE ISSUES. TO START, IT IS AN AUTOMATIC 05 MUSTANG WHICH, THE MORE I READ ONLINE, THE MORE THAT I SEEM TO FIND THAT MANY HAVE THESE EXACT SAME OR VERY SIMILAR ISSUES. INITIALLY THE DASH CLUSTER (EVERYTHING BESIDES THE TACHOMETER) WAS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD GET STUCK AT 20 MPH BUT STILL MOVE ACTING AS THOUGH THE 20 MPH WAS THE 0 MPH MARK (SO 35 MPH = 15 MPH). MORE RECENTLY THE GAS GAUGE HAS STOPPED WORKING, IT SITS AT EMPTY EVEN AFTER PLENTY OF GAS HAS BEEN PUT INTO IT. THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE ALSO GETS STUCK OFTEN, STILL MOVING AS THE SPEEDOMETER DOES. NOT TOO LONG AFTER THESE ISSUES STARTED OCCURRING, WHEN I WENT TO FILL UP THE GAS TANK IT WOULDN'T TAKE THE GAS AS IT NORMALLY WOULD. SOMETIMES ONLY A COUPLE DOLLARS WORTH WOULD BE IN BEFORE IT CLICKED OFF. AFTER PAYING CLOSER ATTENTION I HAVE ALSO NOTICED SOMETIMES GAS ACTUALLY SPLASHES OUT WHEN FILLING IT UP EVEN THOUGH IT IS DEFINITELY NOT FULL. MUCH MORE RECENTLY THE VEHICLE HAS WORRYING ISSUES. AT ONE POINT WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 70 MPH THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STARTED TO DECELERATE ON ITS OWN, EVEN WHILE I WAS PRESSING ON THE GAS PEDAL. I PULLED IT OFF TO THE SIDE, SHUT IT OFF COMPLETELY, STARTED IT UP AND IT WAS AS THOUGH NOTHING HAPPENED. EVER SINCE THAT INCIDENT THOUGH IT HAS BEEN RUNNING A BIT LOUDER AND NOW IT SEEMS A POSSIBLE MISFIRE IS HAPPENING WITH ONE OF THE CYLINDERS OCCASIONALLY. THE VEHICLE HAS A DELAYED AND VERY HARD SHIFT FROM THIRD TO FOURTH GEAR. IT IS NOT AS THOUGH THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN CARE OF, AND FOR A 2005 THE MILEAGE IS PRETTY LOW STILL. AT LEAST ONE OR TWO OF THESE ISSUES SEEM TO BE A SAFETY CONCERN, AND IT IS VERY OBVIOUS AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE THAT THESE ISSUES ARE PREVALENT IN TONS OF THESE EXACT SAME VEHICLES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER:14V343000 (AIR BAGS) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

THE FORD RECALL DUE TO POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUES WITH THE TAKATA AIRBAGS IS QUITE RESTRICTIVE AND NOT APPROPRIATE TO THIS MATTER. I PURCHASED MY CAR IN HAWAII AND SINCE 2005, HAVE LIVED IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, SOUTHERN ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO. NEVERTHELESS, WHEN I MADE THE APPOINTMENT WITH A FORD DEALERSHIP IN NEW MEXICO, EVEN THOUGH I LISTED THE REASON FOR MY REQUESTED SERVICE, I ONLY WAS TOLD ABOUT THIS RESTRICTION AFTER DRIVING TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WOULD HAVE BEEN WILLING TO PAY A NOMINAL FEE TO HAVE THESE AIRBAGS REPLACED BUT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS UNWILLING TO LISTEN. THIS IS THE SECOND "SAFETY" MATTER FOR THIS CAR THAT HAS BEEN RAISED BY FORD THAT THEY HAVE REFUSED TO ADDRESS (THE FIRST BEING A FRONT SUSPENSION MATTER) AND I'M NOT PLEASED. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE AND IF THE NHTSA IS HAVING HEARINGS ON THIS MATTER, I WOULD ENCOURAGE THE COMMITTEE TO CONSIDER EXPANDING THE FORD RECALL TO ALL CARS WITH THESE AIRBAGS. *TR

THEY GET STUCK ESPECIALLY IN COOLER WEATHER. THE TACH IS NOW STUCK HANGING IN THE DOWN POSITION. THE ODOMETER CAN GO ANYWHERE FROM 20 TO 40 MPH FASTER THAN I AM GOING. WHEN STOPPED IT WILL BE IN THAT POSITION. *TR

I HAVE THIS BUBBLING/ PEELING OF PAINT ON THE HOOD RIGHT WHERE THE HOOD STARTS TO WRAP UNDER IN THE FRONT OF THE CAR TOWARDS THE ENGINE. THERE'S A TSB OUT ON THIS BUT WHY SHOULD FORD OWNERS PAY FOR FORDS MISTAKE AND I ALSO SEEN A LOT OF FORUMS WITH OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER NEEDLE DOES NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY. SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT MOVE HALF THE TIME FROM RESTING POSITION AND THE TACHOMETER WILL ROTATE ALL THE WAY AROUND AND STAY WHERE IT IS WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF. THE BATTERY, OIL, AND TEMP NEEDLES DO NOT MOVE FROM OFF POSITION HALF THE TIME. TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT SMOOTHLY AND SHIFTS HARDER GOING FROM SECOND TO THIRD. *TR

THE VEHICLE BEGAN STALLING AT LOW SPEEDS, IN TRAFFIC, AT RED LIGHTS/STOP SIGNS AND WHILE TURNING. SEVERAL VERY CLOSE CALLS TO DATE. YOU MUST RESTART ENGINE DURING A TURN OFTEN WITH OTHER MOTORISTS BEARING DOWN ON YOU. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE AND WHEN YOU DO A SEARCH ON THE INTERNET. THE DEALERSHIP IS ALSO AWARE OF IT BECAUSE THEY TELL YOU RIGHT AWAY THAT YOU WILL NEED A $500.00 PART TO FIX IT AND THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE LABOR. I HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD BY A FEW MECHANICS THAT THIS USED TO BE SOLVED BY REPLACING THE IDLE AIR CONTROL SWITCH,ABOUT A $40.00 PART. THAT PART IS NOT OFFERED WITH THIS YEAR AND MODEL BUT IT COMES ON THE $500.00 PART. *TR

ALL DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS SHOULD BE REPLACED. CURRENTLY NHTSA HAS ONLY RECALLED CARS SOLD OR REGISTERED IN FL, HA, PUERTO RICO, & U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. IT HAS BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED THAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED AND KILLED DUE TO THE DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS IN SOME OF THE REMAINING 48 STATES. NHTSA FAILURE TO RECALL ALL THE DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS LEAVES EVERYONE IN 48 STATES EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY AND DEATH DUE TO A KNOWN PRODUCT DEFECT. ALL DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS SHOULD BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY!!!!! CC: US ATTY GEN, MI ATTY GEN, KS ATTY GEN, KS US SENATORS, KS US CONGRESSIONAL REPS, FORD, ALL MEDIA. *TR

I CURRENTLY OWN A 2005 MUSTANG GT. I HAVE SEVERAL ISSUES WITH MY GAUGE CLUSTER ON MY CAR. SPEEDOMETER IS STUCK AT 40 MPH, FUEL GAUGE DOESN'T WORK, TEMP GAUGE WORKS WHEN IT WANTS TO, OIL GAUGE ISN'T READING CORRECTLY LOW FUEL LIGHT COMES ON WHEN I DON'T NEED FUEL. I CONTACTED FORD ABOUT THE ISSUE AND THEY WERE NO HELP. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN. I DON'T KNOW HOW FAST IM GOING. I DON'T KNOW THE TEMP OF MY MOTOR. I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH FUEL I HAVE. I HAVE GOOGLED THIS ISSUE AND IT SEEMS THAT OVER A HUNDRED OTHER 2005 AND 2006 MUSTANG OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND FORD ISN'T HELPING ANYONE. FORD SHOULD STEP UP AND HELP US MUSTANG OWNERS WITH THESE ISSUES. *TR

ENTIRE GAUGE CLUSTER IS NOW INOPERABLE. FIRST THING TO STOP WORKING WAS FUEL GAUGE, NEEDLE STUCK AROUND 1/8TH TANK. LOW FUEL LAMP INDICATOR STILL WORKS AND IS ONLY WAY TO KNOW WHEN LOW ON FUEL. AROUND SAME TIME SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE STARTED STICKING AT RANDOM POINTS, MORE NOTICEABLE AS WEATHER GOT COOLER. WOULD GO UP WITH ACCELERATION BUT NOT ALL THE WAY BACK DOWN WHEN BRAKING. NEEDLE IS NOW STUCK ALL THE WAY CW ON TRIP RESET BUTTON. ODOMETER STILL WORKS CORRECTLY. THEN SAME WITH TACHOMETER A FEW MONTHS LATER. FINALLY QUIT LOOKING AT GAUGE CLUSTER WHILE DRIVING, NOT REALLY SURE WHEN COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE GOT STUCK AND QUIT WORKING. HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM. FORD SEEMED TO FIX THE PROBLEM IN THE NEXT YEAR MODEL, BUT STILL REFUSE ANY SENSIBLE SOLUTION FOR AFFECTED VEHICLES IN 2005. TO HAVE ISSUE FIXED BY FORD: $660 FOR NEW INSTRUMENT CLUSTER + LABOR. *TR

THIS IS REGARDING A DEFECT, BUT NOT AN ACCIDENT. I HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUES ON MY 2000 MUSTANG, WHICH FORD DECLARED A LEMON 2 YEARS AFTER I PURCHASED IT NEW. PRIMARY PROBLEM IS FAULT IN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, WHICH CAUSES INTERMITTENT AND INCREASINGLY INOPERATIVE PROBLEMS WITH ENGINE DYING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, EVEN AT HIGH SPEEDS, LOSING ALL STEERING AND CONTROL; CONVERTIBLE TOP OPENING AND CLOSING; WINDOWS OPENING AND CLOSING BY THEMSELVES BUT NOT WHEN DESIRED; AND DASH GAUGES NOT WORKING, INDICATING RANDOMLY AND LITERALLY OFF THE CHART, OR SPECTRUM, IF YOU WILL. OTHER INTRINSIC ISSUES INCLUDE GAS TANK GAUGE GIVING FALSE "FULL" READ EVERY FEW SECONDS WHENEVER ATTEMPTING TO REFUEL, REQUIRING NEAR CONSTANT REPOSITIONING OF NOZZLE, AND RANDOM INTERIOR PARTS FALLING OFF WITHOUT EVEN MINIMAL USE AND WITHIN 3 YEARS OF OWNING VEHICLE. VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS ONLY 67,000 MILES ON IT. SINCE THIS IS MY 2ND MUSTANG WITH SAME PROBLEMS, I HAVE TO BELIEVE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL. PLEASE RECALL THIS VEHICLE, AND ALL FORDS WITH THESE ISSUES. DANGEROUS AND PROBLEMATIC, NOT ONLY BECAUSE YOU CANNOT CLOSE AND LOCK YOUR CAR, BUT BECAUSE ENGINE DYING IN MIDDLE OF ROAD HAS ALMOST CAUSED WHAT COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON MORE THAN A FEW OCCASIONS, IN BOTH CARS. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING THE ENGINE STALLING OUT, WHICH SEEMS TO HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH RUNNING THE AIR CONDITIONER. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY FORD SALEEN MUSTANG 2005 RECENTLY HAS STOPPED WORKING PROPERLY, THE NEEDLE ON THE SPEEDOMETER SITS ON 10 MPH WHEN IDLING, WHEN I ACCELERATE THE NEEDLE IS OFF BY 10 MPH, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, NOT KNOWING HOW FAST YOU ARE TRAVELING. I HAVE LOOKED UP IF THERE ARE ANY RECALLS AVAILABLE THROUGH THE WEB AND HAVE ONLY FOUND SIMILAR ISSUES ON FORUMS. *TR

AFTER A LIGHT RAIN I NOTICED WATER DRIPPING INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE KICK PLATE/GLOVE BOX AREA. CAR WOULD NOT START. HAD IT TOWED TO DEALER. STARTED NEXT DAY AND COULD NOT REPLICATE PROBLEM. NEXT DAY, SAME PROBLEM. WATER NOTICEABLE IN PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. SHOOK SMART JUNCTION BOX AND NOTICE WATER LEAKING OUT. CAR STARTED AND STOPPED WHEN SJB SHAKEN. TOOK TO DEALER. REPLACED SJB FOR $750. MONTH LATER SAME ISSUE, THIS TIME CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY IN RAIN. LOSS OF ALL CONTROL, ELECTRICAL AND POWER. COULD NOT RESTART. POUNDED ON SJB AND EVENTUALLY STARTED. GOT IT BACK HOME. NOW BRAKES LIGHTS, TURN SIGNAL, HEADLIGHTS, A/C AND DISPLAY PANEL NOT OPERATING. I AM SURPRISED THAT SOMEONE HAS NOT BEEN KILLED YET. IN TRYING TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE, IT APPEARS THAT THE INTERNET IS FULLY OF THE SAME STORIES. SICKENING. *TR

THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ON MY MUSTANG BEGAN BEHAVING ERRATICALLY AT ABOUT THE TIME AND MILEAGE NOTED FOR A LONG TIME, THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER WOULD WORK FOR 30-45 MINUTES OF DRIVING (LESS WHEN IT WAS HOT OUTSIDE) THEN QUIT, HOWEVER THE GAS AND TEMPERATURE GAUGES WORKED CONSISTENTLY UNTIL A FEW YEARS LATER. IN 2010 OR THEREABOUTS THE OTHER GAUGES QUIT WORKING. THE WARNING LIGHTS STILL WORK AND THE SPEEDOMETER/TACHOMETER COME ON FEEBLY FOR A FEW MINUTES WHEN YOU FIRST START DRIVING THE CAR THE GAS AND TEMPERATURE GAUGES NEVER CHANGE AT ALL. I USED THE LOW FUEL LIGHT FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS TO TELL WHEN I NEEDED GAS AND HAVE HAD NO IDEA HOW FAST I WAS GOING MOST OF THE TIME. APPARENTLY THIS IS SO COMMON THERE IS A COTTAGE INDUSTRY PROVIDING A REBUILD OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FOR THESE CARS MUCH MORE CHEAPLY THAN FORD. ALTHOUGH MY CAR IS FAR OUT OF WARRANTY (254,000 MILES AND STILL RUNNING GOOD) I THOUGHT IT WOULD HELP TO REPORT THIS ISSUE SINCE IT APPEARS TO HAVE HAPPENED TO SO MANY OF THESE CARS. OTHERWISE A GREAT CAR, BOUGHT A 2014 V6 MUSTANG REPLACEMENT. *TR

I HAVE A MAJOR PAINT DEFECT, BUBBLING OR BLISTERING UNDER THE PAINT ON MY ALUMINUM HOOD. A FACTORY DEFECT, WHICH FORD HAS BEEN AWARE SINCE 2004 AND CONTINUED TO SELL ALUMINUM HOODS UNTIL 2013. *TR

I WAS ACCELERATING OUT OF A 45MPH AREA TO A 55MPH AND AROUND 50MPH THE CAR JERKED AND THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. THE WRENCH ICON ON THE DASHBOARD. THE CAR SEEMED TO HAVE LOST MOST POWER BUT STILL RAN. *TR

AFTER THE LEAVING THE CAR TURNED OFF FOR APPROXIMATELY 1.5 HOURS MY TWO TEENAGE DAUGHTERS, AGE 17 AND 15, GOT IN THE CAR TO DRIVE HOME AND NOTICED THAT THE CAR SMELLED A LITTLE SMOKY. THEY DROVE DOWN THE ROAD FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES WHEN THE ELECTRICAL PANEL WENT DEAD, THEN THE POWER LOCKS BEGAN TO GO UP AND DOWN CONTINUOUSLY AND THE SMELL OF SMOKE BECAME MORE PROMINENT. AT THIS POINT, THEY BECAME VERY CONCERNED THAT THEY WERE GOING TO BE LOCKED IN THE CAR WITH SMOKE POURING OUT AND NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. SO THEY PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT, IMMEDIATELY EXITED THE CAR AND CALLED 911. AS SOON AS THEY GOT OUT OF THE CAR, SMOKE BEGAN BILLOWING OUT OF BOTH DOORS WHICH WERE LEFT OPEN. 5 MINUTES AFTER EXITING THE CAR, FLAMES WHICH REACHED TWO FEET HIGH, BEGAN COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT. A PASSERBY OBTAINED A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND TRIED TO PUT OUT THE FLAMES, THEN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED AND PROCEEDED TO PUT OUT THE FIRE COMPLETELY. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT INDICATED THAT IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL FIRE BUT WERE NOT ABLE TO DETERMINE THE SOURCE. THEY INDICATED THAT THEY THOUGHT THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED, WHICH WAS IN FACT THE CASE. CLEARLY, THIS WAS A VERY UPSETTING SITUATION FOR OUR ENTIRE FAMILY. WE FEEL BLESSED THAT THE GIRLS WERE ABLE TO GET OUT IN TIME, BUT ALSO UPSET AT THE THOUGHT OF WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD THEY NOT ACTED IMMEDIATELY OR WERE NOT IN A POSITION TO DO SO. *TR

IN HEAVY CITY TRAFFIC, STEPPED ON GAS TO ACCELERATE, CAR WOULD NOT GO. KEPT GIVING GAS WOULD FINALLY RESPOND. DID THIS SEVERAL TIMES IN ONE DAY. NEXT TIME WE TRIED TO DRIVE IT "ENGINE SAFE MODE" LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL. THROUGH RESEARCH AND TALKING TO OTHERS DETERMINED THAT IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY (DRIVE BY WIRE) A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH SOME FORD VEHICLES. TALKED TO THE FORD DEALER WHERE WE BOUGHT THE CAR AND THE SERVICE PERSON WE SPOKE TO TOLD US IT WOULD BE COVERED BY FORD'S EXTENDED WARRANTY IN RESPONSE TO CSP 13N03. TOOK THE CAR IN TODAY FOR APPOINTMENT AND THEY SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THAT EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THAT CONSUMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N03 DID NOT PERTAIN TO A MUSTANG. DOES NOT SEEM RIGHT TO US THAT OUR CAR WOULD NOT BE COVERED WHEN RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT MUSTANG'S HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THE SAME "DRIVE BY WIRE" SYSTEM. WE ARE LEFT BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR OVER $500 IN COSTS FOR THIS REPAIR. *TR

SPEEDOMETER AND RPM WOULD JUMP AROUND THEN IT JUST STOPPED WORKING THEN MY TEMP GAUGE WENT ALL THE WAY PAST H AND ITS STUCK THERE. *TR
