2013 Ford Mustang 2 DR RWD

Randomly while driving there is the engine revs up but car does not go any faster, no reponse from the throttle, no pwower. It slams down into lower gear, at one time the rear wheels screeched. My wife was driving this time, we were in traffic and was almost rear ended. She will no longer drive the car. Sometimes the wrench light would come on when it was slamming into a different gear then go away after shutting the engine off. I had someone check for codes but none were found. On 1 occasion I took a video on my phone while driving at asready throttle and the speedometer was all over the place, up at 40 down to 20 up then down to 0. I had the spark plugs, pcv, evap purge valve, throttle body replaced and it is not fixed. the car has 49K miles. We have owned this car since new. It happens more often now but I cannot replicate it on demand.

While driving my vehicle on the freeway at a speed of 60 miles an hour my vehicle seemed to downshift into first gear. This nearly caused me to crash. In addition, those driving behind me almost rear-ended me.

My 2013 Ford Mustang had some problems with down shifting, and my daughter took it several times to the dealer, they said it is probably the throttle body, so I replaced it, and thought that everything was fine. So on September last year my daughter was in an accident due to the car downshifting to first gear, the tires locked up and she swirled to some freeway wire retainers. Thankfully she was OK, So thinking that the throttle body went bad again I replaced it, and last week, I almost got rear ended because the same thing happened to me. The car shifted abruptly to first gear, locking the tires and rear swaying side to side.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford Mustang. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the speedometer became inoperable. The instrument cluster warning indicator lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer and diagnosed that the lead frame needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 72,000.

THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD Mustang. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WHEELS LOCKED UP AND THE VEHICLE HYDROPLANED AS THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. MOST RECENTLY, THE SPEEDOMETER DECREASED TO ZERO, THE VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED AND LOST ELECTRICAL DATA SUCH AS THE MILEAGE AS THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES REPORTED AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW LOT BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY HESITATES TO ACCELERATE AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP.THIS FIRST OCCURED IN 2019 AND ONLY HAPPENED A HAND FULL OF TIMES UNTIL NOVEMBER 2020. IN RECENT INSTANCES IT HAS REPEATEDLY STALLED AT STOP LIGHTS AND IN TRAFFIC SITUATIONS WHERE I NEED TO SLOW TO A NEAR STOP, SUCH AS A YIELD OR SHARP TURN.THE RPMS JUMP HIGH AND ENGINE REVS BUT DOESN'T HARDLY MOVE FOR SEVERAL SECONDS, AFTER WHICH IT JERKS SUDDENLY FORWARD AND A YELLOW WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON IN THE DASHBOARD. IT HAS BECOME A DAILY OCCURENCE AND MECHANICS HAVE SUGGESTED IT TO BE RELATED TO A COMPUTING ERROR THAT THE FORD DEALERSHIP SHOULD ADDRESS.

LOSE ALL POWER STEERING JUST STARTED HAPPENING DURING COLD WEATHER DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S A COINCIDENCE OR NOT . USUALLY HAPPENS DURING PARKING LOT MANEUVER OR DURING A TURN. TURN CAR OF AND BACK ON GOES AWAY SOMETIMES (VERY ANNOYING) STEERING IS COMPLETE LOCKED UP VERY DANGEROUS.

MY MOTHER BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW, THE NEIGHBORS HACKED INTO THE SYNC SYSTEM ONCE AND HAD ISSUES OUT OF RADIO SINCE, BUT SHE'S NOT CONCERNED OVER THAT, THE 6SPEED TRANSMISSION WILL SHIFT ON ITS ON, BE RUNNING 55 AND DOWNSHIFT TO FIRST, AND GO TO PULL OUT IN 6TH AND HAD ALMOST GOT HER HIT MORE THAN ONCE , I HOOKED COMPUTER TO IT RESET EVERYTHING TO FACTORY EXCEPT THE MY KEY AND BLUETOOTH WHICH NEIGHBORS HACKED, BUT I TOOK DOWN THE RD AND DRIVING NORMAL TO SET SHIFTING POINTS, I WAS IN A 60 MPH ZONE GOING 55 AND LUCKILY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME IT DECIDED THAT 1RST GEAR WAS NESSASARY GEAR AT 55 AND I FISH TAILED UNTIL I SHIFTED INTO N, BUT SHE IS OLDER AND JUST PAID IT OFF, AND NOW SINCE POLICE WOULDN'T HELP US AGAINST THEIR OWN FAMILY I. WASH CO TN WE HAD MOVE AND HER CAR IS ONLY WAY SHE HAD TO WORK, MY CARS ARE ALSO ELECTRONICALLY DISABLED AT THIS TIME , ONLY CAR I HAVE IS MANUEL TRANS AND SHE CAN'T SHIFT GEARS, SHE HELPS EVERYONE AND IS A NURSE YET WE CAN'T GET AN ONE HELP HER AND WHERE SHE MOVED HAD BROKE HER , PLEASE TELL ME A WAY I CAN GET HER A RELIABLE FIX, FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN FORD SHOULD WENT A RECALL. SHE HAS NO CHOICE BUT TO TAKE HER CHANCES SINCE MY CAR GAS TANK WAS SUGARED , IT'S GETTING WORSE AND ONLY DOES IN CERTAIN AREAS NEAR SUB STATIONS FOR SOME REASON.AND I AM DISABLED BUT NOT DRAWING ANYTHING JUST WORK ON CARS, SINCE GATEWAY AUTO BODY SHUT DOWN, TRYING MY BEST JUST GET BY. ANY HELP OR REFERENCES WOULD BE APPRECIATED . TY

VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY NOT ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING - RANDOMLY. THE CAR HAD NO RESPONSE. AT TIMES, WRENCH LIGHT WILL BE ON - OTHER LIGHTS TOO. AFTER TURNING OFF CAR, THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO GO AWAY, BUT IT HAS REPEATED AND FREQUENCY SEEMS TO BE HIGHER. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS THIS HAPPENS IN HIGHWAYS OR EXISTS, THE CAR IS BASICALLY WITH NO RESPONSE.

I BOUGHT A USED 2013 V6 FORD MUSTANG USED IN AUGUST 2019. ALMOST SINCE THE BEGINING I'VE HAD A PROBLEM WITH IT STALLING OUT. THE ENGINE ITSELF DOESN'T STOP RUNNING BUT THE CAR LOSES ACCELERATION AND IT DOES NOT ACCELERATE WHEN THE GAS IS PRESSED. THIS HAS MOSTLY HAPPENED WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION BUT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN NOT MOVING. IT HAS HAPPENED MOSTLY WHILE ON CITY STREETS. THIS HAS TODAY I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I PUT A CODE READER ON THE PORT AND RECEIVED THE CODE "P2111 THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM STUCK OPEN." I BELIEVE THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT WAS ALLEGED WITH THE 2005-2012 FORD ESCAPE VEHICLE. HTTPS://WWW.NCCONSUMER.ORG/NEWS-ARTICLES/FORD-ISSUES-EXTENDED-WARRANTY-TO-COVER-THROTTLE-BODY-ASSEMBLIES.HTML

I WAS PARKED WHEN I TURN ON THE CAR AND SAW THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME UP. THE CAR IS ABOUT 68000 MILES AND IT'S HAVING A HIGHER GAS CONSUMPTION AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CODE ' P0456' EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM LEAK. AND PASSENGER FROM SEAT BELT BROKE. THE PART THAT HOLDS THE SEAT BELT IN PLACE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED INTO FIRST GEAR WITH THE SERVICE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V075000 (POWER TRAIN) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED HOWEVER, THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 159,000.

SPEEDOMETER SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. THEN THE TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTED AND CAR STARTED TO SWERVE AS THE TRANSMISSION RPM WENT INTO THE RED. I HAD TO HIT BRAKE TO GET CONTROL OF VEHICLE. THE CAR HAS UNDER 80,000 MILES. I SLOWED THE VEHICLE DOWN AND PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER. I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN CHECKED AROUND VEHICLE. I THEN GOT I. AND RESTARTED AND ALL GAUGES CAME BACK ON AND RESUMED CAUTIOUSLY TO MY DESTINATION AT A REDUCED HIGHWAY SPEED OF 45MPH RATHER THAN 65MOH. LUCKILY NO VEHICLE WAS BEHIND ME OR BESIDE ME WHEN THE VEHICLE SWERVED.

PURCHASED A 2013 FORD MUSTANG AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ON 5/31/2020. INSPECTED VEHICLE ON 6/6/2020 AND CAME OUT HAVING A BAD TRANSMISSION WITH INTERNAL CLUTCH DAMAGE AND VALVE BODY DAMAGE. WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE SKIPS HEAVILY FOR 1 TO 2 GEAR MAKING THE CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE. *TR

I PURCHASED A USED 2013 FORD MUSTANG BOSS 302. THE CAR ONLY HAS 9,000 MILES ON IT. IT ONLY COMES WITH THE 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. IT HAS A CLUNKY SHIFT BETWEEN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR AND 5TH GEAR. YOU MUST SHIFT VERY SLOWLY WHEN IT IS COLD OR IT WILL GRIND THE GEARS. I HAVE LOOKED AT SEVERAL FORD BOSS302 FACEBOOK GROUPS AND EVERYONE STATES THEY WILL HAVE CLUTCH LOCKOUT IF THEY SHIFT AT HIGH RPM'S AND ULTIMATELY WILL HAVE TRANSMISSION FAILURE DUE TO A CLUTCH THAT IS UNABLE TO PROVIDE ENOUGH CLAMPING POWER TO HOLD THE FLYWHEEL WHEN SHIFTING. NUMEROUS USERS STATED THAT AS SOON AS THEY UPGRADED TO CLUTCHES BY MCCLEOD, EXEDY, OR MANTIC, THE PROBLEMS IMMEDIATELY WENT AWAY. THEY ALL STATE IT IS NOT THE TRANSMISSION, BUT THE FAULTY CLUTCH THAT CAUSES THE TRANSMISSION TO FAIL EVENTUALLY. THE BOSS 302 ENGINE HAS A 7,500 RPM REDLINE WHICH IS HIGHER THAN THE OTHER COYOTE 5.0 LITER ENGINES. THE CLUTCH CAN NOT HANDLE THIS HIGH RPM LIMIT. SO, BASICALLY FORD SOLD A PERFORMANCE CAR THAT YOU CAN'T DRIVE ANYWHERE NEAR ITS LIMITS BECAUSE OF THE FAULTY CLUTCH/TRANSMISSION. THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO REPLACE THE STOCK CLUTCH WITH A HIGHER QUALITY AFTERMARKET CLUTCH. IF THEY REPLACE IT WITH THE SAME FORD CLUTCH, THE PROBLEM WILL REPEAT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE POWER STEERING SUDDENLY MALFUNCTIONED. AS A RESULT, THE DRIVER LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASHED INTO A CURB. THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN IN EITHER DIRECTION AND THE MESSAGE "POWER STEERING SYSTEM MALFUNCTION" WAS DISPLAYED. APPROXIMATELY ONE WEEK LATER, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND COULD NOT BE TURNED AT ALL. DOWLING FORD (1011 S. MAIN ST, CHESHIRE, CT) WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURES. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 25026398. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS MALFUNCTIONED AND WOULD ONLY OPERATE IN THE HIGH SETTING. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,000. *DT *TR

2014 FORD MUSTANG, FORD FAILED TO REIMBURSE US ON PURCHASING OUR OWN FRONT AIR BAG IN ORDER TO REPLACE THEIR FAULTY FACTORY ONE. DID NOT HONOR FAULTY AIRBAG RECALL.

SOMETIMES LOSES POWER DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD

IN A NUT SHELL, LOOK UP FORD TSBS: 13-4-9 AND 13-6-8. 2013 MUSTANG, 65,700 MILES, WITH 6-SPEED AUTO (6R80) TRANSMISSION WILL SUDDENLY GET STUCK IN 5TH GEAR WHEN STARTING OR WHEN CRUISING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC OR AN ON-RAMP AND SUDDENLY STUCK IN 5TH GEAR WITH NO ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. NOT TO MENTION POTENTIAL ROAD RANGE FROM DRIVERS BEHIND A CAR THAT CAN'T MOVE WHEN THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNS GREEN. THE ORANGE WRENCH, AIRBAG, LOW FUEL INDICATORS ILLUMINATED, THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE DROPS TO ZERO, ODOMETER, TRIP METER, "MILES UNTIL EMPTY" METER ALL DISPLAY DASHES WHILE DRIVING. SYMPTOMS WILL CLEAR AFTER AN IGNITION KEY CYCLE, BUT RETURN. TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) P0720 IS SOMETIMES STORED IN THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE. I'M CURRENTLY STUCK WITH A >$900 REPAIR BILL TO REPLACE THE LEAD FRAME ATTACHED TO THE VALVE BODY IN THE TRANSMISSION. PLEASE INCREASE SCOPE OF EXISTING RECALL FOR OTHER YEARS/MODELS WITH THE SAME 6R80 TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. FORD CSP 16N02 HAS ALREADY EXTENDED COVERAGE FOR 10 YEARS, 150,000 MILES ON OTHER VEHICLES WITH THIS SAME TRANNY, SO IT'S INCOMPREHENSIBLE THE 2013 MUSTANG ISN'T COVERED AS WELL.

CAR HAS HAD THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON AND OFF. SINCE IT ALREADY HAD RECALL FOR IT AIRBAGS, IT SEEMS LIKE A FAULTY AIRBAG SYSTEM PROBLEM CONTINUES. LIGHT USUALLY COMES ON WHEN BEEN DRIVING FOR SEVERAL MILES AND STAYES ON. ONCE I TUNR THE IGNITION OFF, IT RESETS IT AND TURNING THE IGNITION ON AGAIN, THE LIGHT IS GONE, BUT WILL COME BACK AFTER DRIVING SEVERAL MILES BUT NOT ALWAYS.

WITHOUT WARNING MY ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING FAILED. THIS RESULTED IN THE STEERING SHAKING AND THEN LOCKING UP WHILE I WAS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I THEN ONLY HAD MANUAL STEERING. WHEN I RESEARCHED THIS ONLINE, IT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MUSTANGS OF THESE YEARS AND ADJACENT YEARS.

SIMILAR TO NOTICE 10091155, MY 2013 MUSTANG GT IS EXHIBITING SYMPTOMS OF EITHER A) SPEEDOMETER DROPS TO ZERO, CAR VIOLENTLY DOWNSHIFTS AT 70 MPH, LOCKING THE REAR TIRES, B) SPEEDOMETER DROPPING TO ZERO, ODOMETER GOING BLANK, CAR DOWNSHIFTING TO 5TH GEAR, AND "WRENCH" INDICATOR ILLUMINATING, OR C) SPEEDOMETER MOMENTARILY DROPPING OUT AND TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTING UNEXPECTEDLY.

TICK IN ENGINE AT IDLE DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECT EFFECTS BEHAVIOR OF DRIVER AND STRANGERS TOWARD OPERATOR HEARING, RESALE VALUE GREATLY EFFECTED. POOR LUBRICATION TO #1 VALVE TRAIN. TSB 12-1-17 DESCRIBES A FIX THAT CAUSES GREATER HARM BY STARVING EXHAUST CAM JOURNALS OF OIL BY USING OIL PLUGS TO BLOCK OIL FLOW THRU HYDRAULIC CAM TO THE EXHAUST CAM VALVE JOURNALS ON CYLINDER 3 AND 4. EFFORTS TO SECURE REMEDY OR REASONABLE INFORMATION TO EFFECT REPAIRS FROM FORD RESULT IN MISLEADING DIRECTIVES, OVER CHARGES AND DENIED ACCESS TO UPPER MANAGEMENT TO SECURE REASONABLE DISCUSSION AND OR MEANINGFUL REMEDY. NOISE IS ALWAYS PRESENT AT IDLE AFTER WARMED UP. LOUD OFFENSIVE IRRITATING. CONTACTED SEVERAL FORD DEALERS AND FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE. FORD REFUSES TO GIVE ACCESS TO UPPER MANAGEMENT FOR RESOLUTION.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR IT WENT INTO A "LIMP MODE". IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BUT THIS PARTICULAR DAY I WAS CROSSING AN INTERSECTION AND MY CAR JUST LOST POWER. I WAS ALMOST SMASHED ON EACH SIDE. A WRENCH LIGHT POPPED UP ON MY DASHBOARD AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. I WAS LITERALLY STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. I HAD TO PLACE THE CAR IN PARK AND TURN IT OFF FOR 3 MINUTES. IT STARTED BACK UP BUT IT STILL DOES IT AT LEAST 5-6 TIMES A WEEK. I HAD THE THROTTLE BODY CLEANED AND IT STILL DOES IT. I AM ONLY THE SECOND OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE AND I TAKE GOOD CARE OF IT. I LOVE THE MUSTANGS, BUT IF I WOULD'VE KNOW OF THIS VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, I WOULDN'T HAVE BOUGHT IT. I CAN BE DRIVING AT 60MPH AND THIS WILL HAPPEN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND FRIGHTENING. I'VE READ THAT SOME PREVIOUS FORD MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE MUSTANGS HAVEN'T BEEN. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE BY FORD. WHEN I CALLED THEM THEY JUST TOLD ME TO KEEP MY RECEIPTS. I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY ARE DOING THIS TO PEOPLE.

HOOD PAINT CORROSION. LIKE A LARGE AMOUNT OF OTHER PEOPLE, MY HOOD PAINT IS BUBBLING WITH 87K MILES ON MY CAR. I MAINTAIN MY CAR VERY WELL AND IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE. I CONTACTED FORD AND I WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE SUBMITTED TO THEIR CLAIMS DEPARTMENT AND I HAVE NO HEARD BACK. IT'S BEEN SERVAL MONTHS. FORD KNOWS ABOUT THE ISSUE BUT WON'T COVER THEIR MANUFACTURING MESS UP.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V001000 (AIR BAGS) AND STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. BETHLEHEM FORD (2135 W UNION BLVD, BETHLEHEM, PA 18018) CONFIRMED THAT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE TO PERFORM THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

MY VEHICLE IS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING AS THIS RECALL #19S07 - 6R80 TRANSMISSION UNEXPECTED DOWNSHIFT INTO 1ST GEAR. MY VIN SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL YET IT IS HAPPENING TO MY CAR ON A SEMI REGULAR BASIS 2-3 TIMES PER WEEK. I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO TAKE IT TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER AND FEEL THIS VIN SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE CAR JUST DROPS DOWN INTO 1ST GEAR IRREGARDLESS OF SPEED. IT IS A DANGER TO MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME. I AM WRITING THIS DESPERATE EMAIL TO NHTSA TO PLEASE PUT MY CAR ON THIS RECALL ASAP AND ALSO DOCUMENTING THE FACT I AM TELLING YOU ABOUT THIS PROBLEM IN CASE THERE IS A FUTURE ACCIDENT FOR INSURANCE PURPOSES AND A LAW SUIT WAITING TO HAPPEN. PLEASE HELP ME. THIS VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS AND NEEDS REPAIR TODAY. I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO TAKE IT TO FORD. I KNOW WHAT EVER THE COSTS IT WILL BE 500-1000 OR MORE. PLEASE RECHECK MY VIN: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

FROM A STOP, CAR WOULDN'T SHIFT PASS FIRST GEAR. HAD TO STOP, RESTART CAR. WRENCH AND EMPTY GAS WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. WHILE TRAVELING, CAR SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFTED INTO FIRST GEAR. EMPTY GAS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. HAD TO PULL OVER, RESTART CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SPUTTERED AND HESITATED. THE SERVICE VEHICLE SENSOR DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE CONTINUED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000.

MY 2013 FORD MUSTANG WOULD LOSE ENGINE POWER AT HIGHWAY SPEED. WOULD STILL RUN VERY ROUGH, CHUGGING AT ABOUT IDLE. AFTER A RE-START IT WOULD RUN FOR A SHORT TIME AND REPEAT THE EVENT. HAD THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACE WITH A NEW FORD ONE AND THE PROBLEM RETURNED TWO WEEKS LATER. THE "WRENCH" LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND I WOULD LOSE POWER. VERY DANGEROUS AT FREEWAY TRAVEL. FORD SAYS THEIR RECALL DOES NOT APPLY TO MUSTANGS.

AFTER HAVING MY CAR FOR 5.5 YEARS, IT STARTED TO SHIFT GEARS ON ITS OWN (IT'S AN AUTOMATIC) AND BRAKE/STALL WHEN I'M GOING LOW SPEEDS. ESPECIALLY WHEN I'M AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO ACCELERATE (BEEN STUCK IN MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS ABOUT 5 TIMES) EVEN WITH MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR. THE ENGINE DOES NOT SHUT OFF...SO I WILL TURN MY CAR OFF AND BACK ON TO GET GOING AGAIN. ONE TIME I WAS ON THE FREE WAY WITH A FULL TANK OF GAS GOING 65 MPH AND MY DASH BOARD WENT COMPLETELY RED AND SPEEDOMETER WENT TO ZERO...THE CAR DID NOT STOP UNTIL I MANUALLY TURNED IF OFF ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ALSO, IT ONCE DID THE OPPOSITE WHEN I WAS TRYING TO BRAKE BEFORE A RED LIGHT, THE CAR JOLTED/ACCELERATED FORWARD WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON THE GAS. I'VE REPLACED THE AIR FILTERS, BATTERY, ALTERNATOR, AND ENGINE'S WIRE HARNESS (ALL AT SEPARATE TIMES) AND THE ISSUE REMAINS.

CAR SHIFTS DOWN BY ITSELF AND SHOWS DASHES ON THE ODOMETER AS THE SPEEDOMETER GETS STUCK ON ZERO. IT ALSE SHOWS WRENCH LIGHT WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THE 2013 MUSTANG HAS 6R80 TRANSMISSION AND THE DEALERSHIP IS CHARGING ME 950$ TO FIX THE CAR. THEY SAID THEY WILL REPLACE THE MOLDED LEADFRAME.

MY 2013 FORD MUSTANG FEELS AS IF IT DROPS INTO 1ST GEAR WHILE AT A SPEED OF 40 TO 60 MPH FEELS AS IF THE CAR BRAKES ON ITS OWN RPMS WILL GO UP BUT SPEEDOMETER WILL BE ON 0 MPH. I THINK THE F 150 IS HAVING A SIMILAR PROBLEM AND MY MUSTANG DOES HAVE THE V6 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. IN ADDITION, THE WRENCH ICON ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE RPMS INCREASED EXCESSIVELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DAVID MCDAVID FORD FORT WORTH (300 W LOOP 820 S, FORT WORTH, TX 76108, (682) 200-1952) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL NHTSA TO FILE COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 84,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, THE CONTACT PROCEEDED VERY SLOWLY AT APPROXIMATELY 2 MPH; HOWEVER, THE PRECEDING VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO STOP AND REAR ENDED THE OTHER VEHICLE'S BUMPER AT A LOW SPEED. THE DRIVER'S AND FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE CONTACT SUFFERED A BURN ON THE RIGHT ARM THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE PASSENGER WAS UNINJURED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAGS SHOULD NOT HAVE DEPLOYED AT SUCH A LOW SPEED.

THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.

THERE IS A RECALL ON THE TASHAKI AIRBAGS I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR OVER 5 YEARS TO GET AN AIRBAG I HAD A 2005 FORD MUSTANG IT NEEDED AN AIRBAG THAT CAR HAS SINCE BEEN TRADED OFF THEN I BOUGHT A 2013 FORD MUSTANG AND IT'S THE SAME THING IF THE AIRBAG BUT WITH THIS 2013 FORD MUSTANG THE LIGHTS KEEP FLICKERING ON AND OFF THEY FADE IN AND OUT THEY'LL COME ON AND THEN THEY'LL GO OUT AND COME BACK ON

I WAS DRIVING DOWN I-35 IN THE ARBUCKLE MOUNTAINS IN OKLAHOMA GOING 70MPH WHEN MY CAR SUDDENLY DISENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL AND DOWNSHIFTED TO FIRST GEAR. IT FELT LIKE THE BRAKES WERE BEING APPLIED FORCEFULLY AND THEN THE CAR RETURNED TO DRIVING NORMALLY. THIS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF ON THE SHOULDER AS I HAD ALMOST GOTTEN INTO AN ACCIDENT THE FIRST TIME IT DID IT. DURING THIS TIME THE CAR WAS IN THE DRIVE SELECTOR AND WHEN THE PROBLEM WOULD HAPPEN THE CAR WOULD SHOW IT HAD ENTERED SPORT MODE AND THEN THE DOWNSHIFTING WOULD OCCUR. THIS WOULD HAPPEN WITHOUT WARNING AND SUDDENLY, WITHOUT ANY INPUT FROM ME. THIS TERRIFIED ME AS I WAS GOING AT SUCH A HIGH SPEED AND IT WAS SPRINKLING OUT AND A CAR WAS FOLLOWING CLOSELY BEHIND ME. LUCKILY I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A NEARBY FORD DEALERSHIP TO BE LOOKED AT AND ARE AWAITING THE RESULTS. AS I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM LATER THAT NIGHT I FOUND THAT MANY FORD 2011-2012 VEHICLES HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. MINE IS A 2013 MODEL AND WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, THEREFORE I WAS UNAWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE.

CLEAR COAT FINISH ON TRUNK PANEL BEGAN PEELING WHEN CAR 3 1/2 YEARS OLD. ALUMINUM HOOD CORROSION AT ALMOST 5 YEARS OLD PAINT IS BUBBLING AT THE FRONT EDGE OF ALUMINUM HOOD. APPARENTLY WHEN BEING PAINTED THE ALUMINUM HOOD WAS CONTAMINATED WITH STEEL PARTICLES WHICH FORD KNEW AT THE TIME OF MANUFACTURE WOULD CAUSE CORROSION AND PAINT PEELING BUT DID NOTHING TO TRY TO CORRECT THE METAL CONTAMINATION WHEN VEHICLES WERE PAINTED SO NOW AT 24,800 MILES THE HOOD IS CORRODING AND PAINT IS BUBBLING AND PEELING. I PAID ALOT OF MONEY FOR THIS CAR MUSTANG V6 PONY PACKAGE AND TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH HOOD CORROSION AND PEELING PAINT ON THIS CAR IS RIDICULOUS AND SHAMEFUL THAT FORD WILL NOT COVER THIS DAMAGE.

TAKATA RECALL. I LIVE IN FLORIDA WHERE IT IS HOT AND HIGH HUMIDITY. I BOUGHT A USED MUSTANG LAST YEAR WITH NO RECALLS. ALL OF THE SUDDEN NOW THERE IS 2 RECALLS ON BOTH AIR BAGS. THE DRIVER SIDE IS READY BUT NOT THE PASSENGER SIDE. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO SINCE IT IS THE CAR THAT MY TEENAGER IS RIDING IN DAILY. WOULD YOU DRIVE AROUND WITH A CHILD IN THIS DANGEROUS CAR? I THINK FORD SHOULD GIVE LOANER CARS UNTIL THIS PROBLEM HAS A REMEDY. OR FORD SHOULD NOT ALLOW CARS TO BE SOLD WHILE UNDER THIS DANGEROUS RECALL. FORD SHOULD BUY BACK MY DANGEROUS CAR SO I CAN BUY A SAFE CAR FOR MY FAMILY. WHAT IS FORD DOING TO PROTECT MY FAMILY?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE CONTACT REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE.

I'M A LONG TIME FORD OWNER. IN JULY, 2017 THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING ON MY 2013 MUSTANG GT WHICH HAD LESS THAN 40K MILES, MALFUNCTIONED WHICH IN TURN RESULTED IN THE LOSS OF TRACTION CONTROL, ABS AND OTHER ELECTRONIC ASSIST FUNCTIONS. AFTER BEING INFORMED THAT MY WARRANTY WAS EXPIRE, I WAS QUOTED OVER $2.2K. ANNOYED THAT A LOW MILEAGE CAR WHICH WAS LESS THAN 4 YEARS OLD COULD HAVE AN ISSUE LIKE THIS, I CHOSE TO DRIVE IT WITHOUT POWER STEERING. FAST FORWARD TO JANUARY 2018, I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CHANGE WHICH HAPPENED TO LOSE ALL STEERING FUNCTION WHILE IN THEIR POSSESSION. THE DEALERSHIP EXPLAINED THAT THE CAR WAS A TICKING TIME BOMB AND THAT I SHOULD BE GRATEFUL THAT THE STEERING DIDN'T GO OUT WHILE I WAS ON THE ROAD. I WAS BLOWN AWAY BECAUSE THEY NEVER INFORMED ME THAT I WOULD LOSE ALL STEERING IN THE ORIGINAL DIAGNOSIS 6 MONTHS EARLIER. I CONTACTED FORD CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY JUST FILED IT AWAY AND DON'T WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE DUE TO THE POTENTIAL LIABILITY IT CAN FACE FOR SELLING CARS WITH FAULTY STEERING THAT ARE LIKELY TO FAIL ON THE ROAD. FORD'S POWER STEERING ISSUES ARE WELL-KNOWN, BUT THE ASSOCIATED CATASTROPHIC STEERING FAILURE IS NOT. BASICALLY, IF YOU DRIVE A FORD PRODUCT AND THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT, YOU ARE DRIVING A DEATH TRAP.

DEALERSHIP WON'T FIX AIRBAGS AND CAR IS 3 MONTHS OLD FOR ME.

FOR 5 MONTHS OUR 2013 FORD MUSTANG HAS BEEN SHUTTING OFF IN TRAFFIC. THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER FIVE TIMES AND NOT FIXED YET. THE MECHANIC PUT THE CAR ON THE COMPUTER AND ERROR CODE P2111 SHOWS UP, BUT WHEN TAKEN BACK TO DEALER THEY CLEARED THE CODE AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE WENT INTO LIMP MODE WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND LATER TOOK IT TO CAPITOL FORD LINCOLN OF WILMINGTON (4222 OLEANDER, WILMINGTON, NC 28403 910-378-3858) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE FAILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000.

WAS DRIVING MY 2013 MUSTANG HOME FROM MY PARENTS HOUSE THE CAR DIDN'T WANT TO SHIFT OR MOVE EVEN AT FULL THROTTLE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTED IT DROVE HOME JUST FINE. WENT TO DRIVE IT LATER THAT NIGHT AND AGAIN CAR DIDN'T WANT TO SHIFT NOR MOVE BUT THIS TIME I LOST MY SPEEDOMETER AND ALL MY DIGITAL DISPLAY IN THE CENTER WENT BLANK. AS THE DAYS AND WEEKS WENT BY THE PROBLEM STARTED BECOMING MORE FREQUENT SO I TOOK IT TO AN AUTO ZONE TO GET THE CODES CHECKED HAD CODES P0720 AND P0722 (OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR INSIDE MOLDED LEAD FRAME) COME UP ON THE CODE READER. I THEN CALLED MY COUSIN WHO IS A FORD DEALER MECHANIC TO LOOK UP MY CODES AND HE TOLD ME TO COME BY THE SHOP AND SHOWED ME WHAT THE CODES WERE FROM THE SOFTWARE FROM FORD THEY USED. WE THEN LOOKED UP TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE PART AND FOUND A RECALL FROM FORD FOR THE 2012 MUSTANG WITH THE 6R80 WHICH IS THE SAME AUTO TRANSMISSION THAT I HAVE. THE CUT OFF BUILD DATE FOR THE RECALL WAS FEBRUARY 2012 AND MY VEHICLE WAS MADE IN AUGUST OF 2012. I ALSO READ OF OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME YEAR AND TRANSMISSION THAT I HAVE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AS ME. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE TO SEE IF I THEY WOULD EXTEND THE RECALL TO COVER 2013 MUSTANGS THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT. I PERSONALLY HAVE HAD MULTIPLE TIMES WHERE THE SHIFTING HAS ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK. AN INSTANCE HERE RECENTLY WAS I WAS PULLING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT OF THE COMPANY I WORK AT AND THE CAR STARTED OFF FINE THEN STALLED AND DIDN'T WANT TO GO AND ALMOST GOT T BONED. ANOTHER INSTANCE WAS A COUPLE DAYS BEFORE THANKSGIVING AND I WAS HEADED TO MY PARENTS HOUSE AND JUST MERGED ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR STARTED ACTING UP AND COULD OF EASILY CAUSED A PILE UP NEAR THE RAMP AND GOT SOMEONE KILLED.BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A FORD DEALERSHIP WITH 34K MILES NOW HAS ABOUT 76K MILES.

TAKATA RECALL - FORD HAS BEEN NOTIFIED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS OVER THE PAST 3 YEARS ABOUT THIS RECALL. FORD HAS REFUSED -OR IS UNABLE TO EFFECT THE NECESSARY REPLACEMENT OF THESE AIRBAGS. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE OR SELL WITHOUT WORKING AIRBAGS!!!

UNDER MEDIUM TO HARD ACCELERATION EXHAUST FUMES ENTER THE CABIN, POSSIBLE EXHAUST DEFECT IN EXHAUST MANIFOLD, SMELLS LIKE RAW FUMES NOT PASSED THRU CATALYTIC CONVERTER. WIDOWS ARE CLOSED DURING ACCELERATION.USUALLY WHEN ACCELERATING ONTO HIGHWAY ETC. IT DOES THIS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT. NOT AN OCCASIONAL THING ALWAYS.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE LESS THAN A MILE FROM MY HOME NOTICED I HAD NO AIR WHEN I HIT THE AC BUTTON AS IT WAS VERY WARM DAY THIS HAS HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY IN THE LAST 2 YEARS , SO I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED AND THE AIR AND A/C BEGAN WORKING. I TOOK INTO FORD WHEN CAR WAS STILL UNDER THE 3 YEAR 36000 MILE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE AND WAS BASICALLY TOLD THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING SINCE IT WAS NO OCCURRING AT THAT TIME. I HAVE ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH WINDOWS FOGGING UP WHILE DRIVING AFTER JUST STARTING THE VEHICLE SINCE OWNING IT. THIS CAR ALSO HAS A DEFECTIVE CLEAR COAT FINISH ON THE BACK OF VEHICLE TRUNK AREA. THE CLEAR COAT ON THE BLACK PANEL OF THE TRUNK IS PEELING OFF THIS CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AND THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. I CANNOT BELIEVE THE CLEARCOAT IS PEELING OFF AS BADLY IS IT IS. I AM EMBARRASSED TO DRIVE THIS CAR WITH THE CLEARCOAT PEELING OFF THE WAY IT IS. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING AT ALL. I HAVE OWNED FORD VEHICLES MY WHOLE LIFE AND AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE QUALITY OF THIS MUSTANG(WHICH I HAD TO SAVE MY MONEY FOUR 4 YEARS BEFORE I COULD BUY ONE) I HAD A 1995 MUSTANG GT FOR 13 YEARS NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THE PAINT ON IT. I HAVE ALWAYS BOUGHT FORD BUT I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER FORD VEHICLE AGAIN. I STILL CANNOT BELIEVE THE FINISH IS PEELING OFF ON A 4 YR OLD VEHICLE. I AM ALSO VERY UNHAPPY WITH THE FACT THAT I HAD TO DRIVE MY CAR FOR OVER A YEAR AND A HALF WITH DEFECTIVE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG BEFORE THEY ACTUALLY REPLACED IT. I HAD TO REDUCE MY DRIVING UNTIL IT WAS REPLACED ALMOST A YEAR AND A HALF AFTER RECEIVING THE RECALL NOTICE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED AND A WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, WHICH INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS IN LIMP MODE. THE CONTACT HAD TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND WAIT APPROXIMATELY TEN SECONDS BEFORE IT RESTARTED IN ORDER FOR IT TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE CONTACT HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.

I HAVE ALWAYS HAD MY 2013 FORD MUSTANG SERVICED BY LICENSED FORD DEALERS. IT HAS ALWAYS HAD REGULAR MAINTENANCE. ON TWO OCCASIONS, I BROUGHT THE RECALL TO THE ATTENTION OF THE FORD SERVICE DEPT. HOWEVER FORD HAS NEVER ATTEMPTED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IN FACT, FORD HAS NEVER EVEN NOTIFIED ME OF THE PENDING RECALL - EVEN WHEN I HAVE HAD FORD SERVICE PERFORM MAINTENANCE ON THE CAR. FORD IS IGNORING THE RECALL AND NECESSARY REPAIRS TO THE CAR. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE!

MY MUSTANG HAS THE SAME EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING AS THE FUSION AND TAURUS WHICH ARE CURRENTLY ON RECALL..... INTERMITTENT POWER STEERING LOSS DUE TO AN INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL CONNECTION IN THE STEERING GEAR...I WOULD LIKE THE NHTSA TO LOOK INTO INCLUDING THE 2013 MUSTANG IN THIS RECALL.. MY MUSTANG ONLY HAS 40,026 MILES

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

LOSS OF POWER TO THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE SERVICE WRENCH AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. ALSO, A SORT OF SHUDDERING NOISE COMES FROM THE ENGINE. WHEN THIS OCCURS, I CAN NOT ACCELERATE. THE CAR PRETTY MUCH GOES LIMP AND I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND RESTART MY CAR. IT COULD BE FROM AN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. THIS HAS HAPPENED FIVE TIMES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT CALLED A LOCAL DEALER (SPIKES FORD LOCATED AT 805 E INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 2 MISSION ,TX 78572) WHO INFORMED HIM TO BRING THEM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

MY VEHICLE HAS FAILED WITHOUT WARNING FOUR TIMES IN THE PAST 3 MONTHS. ONCE THE VEHICLE FAILS IT IS IN A NO-START CONDITION. FURTHERMORE, THERE IS RANDOM STALLING WHEN I'M DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND THE HAS BEEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME. ONCE IN THE VEHICLE FAILS IT WILL NOT RESTART. THE FIRST TIME MY CAR FAILED WAS UPON STARTUP WHEN I WAS AT WORK FOR 4 HOURS. I CAME OUT TO MY CAR TO START IT AND IT WOULD NOT START. THE SECOND TIME MY VEHICLE FAILED IT WAS WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC, AGAIN WOULD NOT START. THE THIRD TIME MY CAR FAILED WAS LIKE THE FIRST TIME AFTER BEING AT WORK FOR 4 HOURS, UPON TRYING TO START MY CAR, IT WOULD NOT START. THE 4TH TIME MY VEHICLE FAILED AGAIN WITHOUT WARNING AND THIS TIME I WAS MERGING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY DURING RUSH HOUR. PER THE MECHANICS DIAGNOSTIC - CODE P025A FUEL PUMP DRIVER MODULE OPEN CIRCUIT.

I HAVE TWO RECALL NOTICES DATED JULY 2015 & APRIL 2017. AFTER NUMEROUS REQUESTS FOR AN APPOINTMENT, THE DEALERS KEEP STATING THEY CAN'T GET THE PART NEEDED! THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A "LIFE & DEATH" SITUATION. PLEASE HELP!

I RECEIVED A LETTER REGARDING NHTSA RECALL # 15V319 AND MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER# 15S21 A YEAR AGO STATING I WOULD RECEIVE AN ADDITIONAL LETTER AT THE END OF THAT YEARS QUARTER ADVISING ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO DEALER WHEN RECALL REMEDY IS COMPLETE. I HAVE BEEN MONITORING THE STATUS OF THE RECALL REMEDY AND NOW IN 2017 THE REMEDY IS STILL INCOMPLETE AND I AM UNABLE TO GET THIS RESOLVED WITH DEALERSHIP. THE SAFETY RISK FOR THIS RECALL IS SEVERE AND EXTREMELY HIGH RISK. I LIVE IN TX HIGH HUMIDITY AND IT STATES IT CAN POTENTIALLY INJURE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS IF INVOLVED IN A CRASH. THE REMEDY STATES DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE DRIVER AIRBAG, YET WHEN I TRY TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT AT DEALERSHIP, THEY STATE THE RECALL IS INCOMPLETE AND THEY DON'T HAVE THE AVAILABLE PARTS TO HANDLE THE REPLACEMENT AND I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR ANOTHER LETTER FROM MANUFACTURER TO INFORM ME THE PARTS OR RECALL IS COMPLETE. THIS RECALL NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY IT SHOULD NOT TAKE THIS LONG FROM MAY 2015, DRIVERS ARE AT RISK! PLEASE ASSIST.

HAVE TRIED UNSUCCESSFULLY FOR LAST 2 FORD DEALERSHIP VISITS (8/6/16 AND 2/11/17) TO HAVE MY RECALL REPLACEMENT OF AIRBAG TAKEN CARE OF. AT EACH VISIT, FORD DEALERSHIP RESPONDS THAT THE AIRBAG IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR REPLACEMENT AT THE TIME OF VISIT. SEEKING ANOTHER FORD DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDATION AT ZIPCODE: 92234 TO HAVE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION HAS PROBLEMS GOING INTO GEAR. SYNCHROS ARE BEING REPLACED A SECOND TIME WITH LESS THAN 60K MILES AND THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN ON A RACE TRACK. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I'VE TRIED MERGING ONTO A FREEWAY ONLY TO FIND MYSELF NOT BEING ABLE TO GET INTO 5TH GEAR. NOW I'M TOLD MY CLUTCH HAS TO BE REPLACED. SOMETHING SEEMS WRONG. ALTHOUGH A 2013 MY CAR WAS PURCHASED IN 2012 AND I IMAGINE HAS THE SAME PARTS AS THOSE WHO FILED COMPLAINTS RESULTING IN AN INVESTIGATION OF THE 2012 MUSTANG TRANSMISSIONS.

TAKATA RECALL. THIS IS MY SON'S CAR, WHICH HAS BEEN UNDER THE AIRBAG RECALL FOR A LONG TIME. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED FOR MY SON'S WELL-BEING AND HAVE CALLED MANY TIMES TO CHECK ON A FIX AND AM ALWAYS TOLD IT WILL HAPPEN IN THE NEXT 3 MONTHS OR SO. IT NEVER DOES. HOW CAN FORD GET AWAY WITH THIS?...TELLING PEOPLE THEIR AIRBAG WILL BE REPAIRED AND THEN RENEGING, TIME AFTER TIME. TODAY THEY SAID THE REPAIR WILL BE AVAILABLE THE SECOND HALF OF 2017. I DON'T BELIEVE IT. CAN'T YOU DO SOMETHING? OTHER COMPANIES ARE PROVIDING REPAIRS ON A TIMELY BASIS, BUT NOT FORD, AS FAR AS I CAN SEE. LAWSUITS COST THEM LESS THAN A WIDE-RANGING RECALL REPAIR, SO WHY SHOULD THEY EXPEDITE IT? MEANWHILE, MY SON'S LIFE AND HEALTH ARE AT STAKE AND WE ARE CONSIDERING BUYING A NEW CAR AT GREAT HARDSHIP. PLEASE, PLEASE DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO LIGHT A FIRE UNDER FORD IN THIS MATTER. THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL I'M NOT SURE WHAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED A "TIMELY MANNER" IN REGARDS TO SOMETHING THAT CAN HARM OR POTENTIALLY KILL ME. I FIRST TRIED TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OFF AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP IN HAWAII, BACK IN EARLY 2015. THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE STILL WAITING FOR THE PART. I HAVE SINCE BEEN STATIONED IN SOUTH CAROLINA SO I TRIED THE FORD DEALERSHIP HERE, ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO. THEY GAVE ME THE SAME RESPONSE. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BUT I'M AFRAID THAT IF I WERE AND MY AIRBAG DEPLOYED, MY WIFE OR MYSELF CAN BE HARMED.

TAKATA RECALL- BOUGHT THE CAR FROM MITCHEL SELIG FORD IN WINDSOR CT. ON DEC. 3, 2015 WITH THE OPEN RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS. THE RECALL STILL HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN CARE OF AND THE CAR MAY BE DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH THE OPEN RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL - NOTIFIED IN SPRING OF 2015, NOTIFIED AGAIN IN SPRING OF 2016. STILL NO RESOLUTION! CAR OWNERS EFFECTED BY THIS RECALL ARE ADVISED TO NOT DRIVE UNTIL THE ISSUE IS FIXED AS DRIVERS/PASSENGERS MAY SUFFER CRITICAL INJURIES OR LOSS OF LIFE DUE TO THE SHRAPNEL FROM AN AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. WE'RE COMING UPON TWO YEARS SINCE INITIAL OFFICIAL NOTIFICATION AND THE PROBLEM WAS KNOWN BEFORE THAT. FORD HAS ONLY COMPLETED 16% OF THE REPAIRS/REPLACEMENTS. I CONTACT MY DEALERSHIP EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS AND STILL NOTHING. SUPPOSEDLY THE LAST QUARTER OF THIS YEAR. WELL THAT'S HERE AND STILL NOTHING. IF IT EVEN HAPPENS BEFORE YEAR'S END, THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH. MY LIFE AND MY LOVED ONE'S ARE ENDANGERED ON A DAILY BASIS DUE TO A FAULTY COMPONENT IN A SYSTEM THAT IS SUPPOSED TO PROTECT AND SAVE LIVES. GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO STEP IN AND SPEED THIS UP.

NO ACCELERATION POSSIBLE. FUEL CUT OUT. PULLED OVER CAR SHOOK. TURNED OFF. BACK ON 15 MINUTES LATER. HAPPENED 5 MORE TIMES IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. DEALERSHIP SAID TGEY FIXED IT, BUT PROBLEM PERSISTS. SAME CODE: CHECK FUEL FILL INLET. CAR ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. WHAT A JOKE. NO MORE FORDS FOR ME AND THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAS BEEN TERRIBLE!

THE STEREO PANEL GLASS IS DEFECTIVE BECAUSE IT CAN NOT HOLD UP TO SIMPLE CLEANING SOLUTIONS I.E. WINDEX TYPE GLASS CLEANERS.

MY 2013 MUSTANG HAS A RECALL FOR AIRBAGS FOR OVER A YEAR AND I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME I'M ON THE LIST TO HAVE IT REPLACED.. MY QUESTION AND COMPLAINT IS WHY HASN'T IT BEEN REPLACED YET. EVER TIME I DRIVE I AM IN DANGER OF BEING INJURED. SINCE YOUR COMPANY IS RELIABLE FOR CORRECTING THE PROBLEM YOU SHOULD DO SO IN A TIMELY MANNER BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS. I WOULD LIKE A RESPONSE FROM YOU IF ATLEAST LETTING ME KNOW WHEN YOUR GOING TO SEND MY AIRBAG REPLACEMENT TO MY DEALERSHIP. MY CAR WAS PURCHASED AT ROUNTREE IN SHREVEPORT LA. MY NAME IS [XXX] MY EMAIL IS [XXX] MY PHONE NUMBER IS [XXX]... THANK YOU INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

"TAKATA RECALL"...I RECEIVED AN OFFICIAL NOTICE OF A RECALL FROM FORD DATED 5/27/15 CONCERNING THE RECALL AND THE NEED TO REPAIR THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG ON MY 2013 FORD MUSTANG. I CALLED MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP TO SET UP THE APPOINTMENT TO CORRECT THE AIRBAG DEFECT ON MY CAR AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL NOTICED I RECEIVED IN THE MAIL APPROXIMATELY 1 WEEK FROM THE DATE ON THE RECALL NOTICE. I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX MY CAR AND THAT I MUST WAIT FOR THE PART TO ARRIVE. I'VE HAVE SINCE CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THEN TO INQUIRE ABOUT THE STATUS OF THE PART NEEDED TO REPAIR THE AIRBAG DEFECT ON MY CAR ONLY TO BE TOLD EACH TIME THAT NO PART IS AVAILABLE TO FIX MY CAR. SINCE I HAVE NO OTHER SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION, I'M FORCED TO DRIVE THIS POTENTIALLY UNSAFE CAR WITH A DEFECT IN THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG THAT IF AN ACCIDENT SHOULD OCCUR AND THIS AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED, I, THE OCCUPANTS OF MY CAR, AND/OR BOTH MAY BE KILLED BY FLYING METAL SHRAPNEL FROM THE FAULTY DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR! AFTER WAITING THE FIRST 6-8 MONTHS, I REACHED OUT TO FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGEMENT TO SEE IF THEY WOULD BUY BACK MY FAULTY AND DANGEROUS VEHICLE SINCE NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE TO FIX MY CAR'S FAULTY AIRBAG. OF COURSE THEY DECLINED. IT IS NOW 10/9/16 AS OF THE WRITING OF THIS COMPLAINT AND STILL NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE TO MY CAR AND NO ATTEMPT TO INFORM ME OF THE STATUS OF THE PARTS NECESSARY FOR THE REPAIR OF MY CAR HAVE BEEN MADE BY FORD. ANY HELP YOUR DEPARTMENT MAY AFFORD IN RESOLVING THIS OPEN RECALL WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILURE CAUSED CAR TO GO INTO "LIMP HOME MODE" (5 MPH) WHILE DRIVING FORWARD AT NORMAL SPEED OF 45 MPH IN TRAFFIC ON A CITY STREET.

TAKATA AIRBAG I HEARD IN THE NEWS A FEW DAYS AGO THAT IF YOU HAD A CAR WITH TACATA AIRBAGS YOU COULD CALL THE DEALER AND THEY WOULD PUT YOU IN A LOANER CAR. I CALLED GALLOWAY FORD WHRE I BOUUGHT THE CAR SPOKE TO HYDEE AND SHE TOLD ME TO CALL CUSTOMERS RELATIONS , I DID I SPOKE TO MCKAPAE, SHE TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE A REPLACEMENT AND THAT THEY COULD NOT GIVE ME A LOANER BECAUSE OF THE CAR YEAR

AIRBAG RECALL IS ISSUED ON MAY 27, 2015. I BOUGHT MY CAR FROM TORKIN GRESHAM DEALERSHIP ON 5TH OF AUGUST. THE RECALL SAYS: SAFETY RISK: AN INFLATOR RUPTURE COULD RESULT IN METAL FRAGMENTS STRIKING AND POTENTIALLY SERIOUSLY INJURING VEHICLE OCCUPANTS. REMEDY: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE DRIVER AIRBAG INFLATOR WITH A NEW ONE, FREE OF CHARGE. RECALL STATUS: RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT I CAN EASLY GO TO A FORD SERVICE AND REPLACE THE AIRBAG FOR MY SAFETY, THEY ACCEPTED THAT THEY DID NOT TRY TO COMPLETE THE RECALL BEFORE PUTTING THE CAR ON THE MARKET. AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR, I CALLED A FORD SERVICE, AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE REMEDY IS NOT READY, THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE NOT PROVIDED BY FORD YET. DID I BUY AN UNSAFE CAR? IS IT DEALERSHIP'S OR FORD'S FAULT? I WANT TO REPLACE THE DANGEROUS PARTS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

TAKATA RECALL. WE BOUGHT OUR 2013 MUSTANG FROM MITCHEL SELIG FORD IN WINDSOR CT ON DEC. 3, 2015 WITH THE RECALL ON THE AIR BAGS OUTSTANDING AND WE ARE STILL WAITING FOR THEM TO BE FIXED AND ONLY PUT ABOUT 250 MILES ON THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE DANGER OF FAULTY AIRBAGS, AND HERE IT IS ALMOST OCT. 2016.

TAKATA RECALL. I AM TRYING TO SELL THIS VEHICLE TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE. THE TRADE IN VALUE IS DIMINISHED AND THE LOAN VALUE IS TOO LOW FOR PROSPECTIVE BUYERS TO PURCHASE MY VEHICLE. FORD IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THE RECALL ISSUE IN A TIMELY MANNER.

RECEIVED NOTICE OF RECALL FROM FORD OVER A YEAR AGO (JULY 2015) - ADVISED NOT TO DRIVE VEHICLE UNTIL DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG IS REPLACED. TOLD RECENTLY THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS - HOW DO THEY EXPECT ME NOT TO DRIVE A NEW CAR THAT I BOUGHT FOR OVER A YEAR?

"TAKATA RECALL" - I AM THE PROUD OWNER OF MY FORD MUSTANG. I BOUGHT IT 2ND HAND OVER A YEAR AGO FORM A CAR DEALER IN BAVARIA, GERMANY. IT WAS PRE-OWNED BY AN US SERVICEMAN. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF FORD WILL HONOUR THIS RECALL FOR ME, HERE IN GERMANY. I AM NOT AN AMERICAN (I'M SCOTTISH) AND I AM NOT IN THE ARMED FORCES. HOWEVER, IN ORDER THAT I CAN CONTACT YOU, I HAVE HAD TO SELECT ARMED FORCES EUROPE AS MY COUNTRY AND ALSO USE YOUR US PHONE NUMBER. MY CONTACT PHONE NUMBER IS 004917645701615. MANY THANKS.

TAKATA RECALL I WAS SENT A NOTICE OF RECALL IN JULY 2015 A SECOND ONE IN MAY 2016 AND STILL THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE AIRBAG IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO FOR ME IN THIS CASE. I WENT TO SELL THE CAR BACK TO PALM BAY FORD AN THEY WOULD NOT BY IT BACK BECAUSE OF THE AIRBAG RECALL 9/10/2016.

APPROXIMATELY 150 MILES INTO A TRIP WHILE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE IN 6TH GEAR AT 80 MPH I HAD TO SLOW FOR BREAK LIGHTS AHEAD. TRIED TO DOWNSHIFT INTO 5TH AND IMMEDIATELY THE TACH RED LINED AND THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT ENGAGE. TRIED TO GO BACK TO 6TH AND SAME ISSUE. USED THE FOOT BRAKE TO SLOW TO A STOP AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IN 1ST THROUGH 4TH GEAR OR REVERSE. DROVE TO NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP IN 4TH GEAR FOR REPAIR. THE EXTERNAL DIAGNOSIS WAS FINE SO THE TECH WENT TO REMOVE THE TRANSMISSION. HE NOTICED THE VENT CAP MISSING OFF THE TRANSMISSION AND ONLY 1 QT OF FLUID LEFT. THERE WAS A BURNT SMELL AND METAL SHAVINGS IN THE ASSEMBLY. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED DUE TO CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. JUST 3 DAYS PRIOR TO THIS THE CAR HAD BEEN SERVICED AND THE TRANSMISSION, CAP, FLUID ALL CHECKED OUT WELL. THE TECH AT THE DEALERSHIP EXPLAINED THE PRESSURE INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION COULD CAUSE A MAJOR BURN-OFF OF THE FLUID IF THE CAP CAME OFF AS IT APPEARED. SO A SLOW LEAK WAS NOT THE CASE HERE. THE REMOVAL OF THE VENT CAP WAS THE ROOT CAUSE.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE PUT IN NUMEROUS CALLS TO FORD TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH LONGER I HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE AIRBAG TO BE REPLACE. FIRST THEY SAID BY JULY 2016. NOW THEY DON'T KNOW BECAUSE THERE JUST TO MANY TO REPLACE. SO AFTER WAITING OVER A YEAR FOR THIS AIRBAG, I DECIDED TO TRADE THE CAR IN FOR SOMETHING ELSE. WAS NOTIFIED THAT I CAN NOT MAKE A TRADE WITHOUT REPLACING THE AIRBAG. I CALL FORD AGAIN. THEY STATE THEY CANT REPLACE THE AIRBAG, THEY CANT GIVE ME A REPLACEMENT CAR AND THEY CANT TAKE BACK THE CAR.. SO AS A CONSUMER IM STUCK WITH A DANGEROUS VEHICLE WITH NO HELP FROM FORD. IM FRUSTRATED AND EXHAUSTED. PLEASE HELP ME IN RESOLVING THIS ISSUE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION. *TR

TAKATA RECALL> I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT ON JULY 4, 2016. A PERSON TOOK A STOP SIGN AS I WAS GOING 40MPH ON A STRAIGHTAWAY STREET. AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND FRONT DRIVER SIDE WAS SMASHED IN. OUR VEHICLE WENT IN FOR REPAIR AND IT IS NOW READY TO GO, BUT IT'S MISSING THE AIRBAGS. OBVIOUSLY THE AUTO COLLISION CENTER CANNOT RELEASE THE VEHICLE WITHOUT THE AIRBAGS. NOW THEY'VE INFORMED US THAT THERE IS A RECALL AND THERE IS NO ETA ON THE PRODUCTION. WE HAVE CONTACTED FORD AND MAY OTHER SUBSIDIARIES AND NO ONE IS ABLE TO GIVE US A DATE, NOT EVEN AN ESTIMATE OF WHEN OUR VEHICLE WILL BE READY. THIS IS SUCH AN INCONVENIENCE. WE HAVE TO GET AROUND IN ONE CAR AND IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT FOR US. NEITHER OUR INSURANCE COMPANY, THE PERSON AT FAULTS INSURANCE COMPANY, THE BODY SHOP OR FORD CAN GET US IN A RENTAL. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I AM REACHING OUT TO YOU TODAY FOR HELP. WE NEED TO KNOW WHEN OUR VEHICLE WILL BE READY. WE HAD JUST PURCHASED THE CAR 6 MONTHS AGO AND NOW WE ARE PAYING THE MONTHLY CAR NOTE PLUS INSURANCE FOR THE CAR TO JUST BE PARKED FOR WE DON'T KNOW HOW LONG. PLEASE HELP...

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE TAKEN THIS VEHICLE TO SEVERAL FORD DEALERSHIPS TO GET AN UPDATE ON THE AIRBAG RECALL. THE STORY REMAINS THE SAME. FORD DOES NOT HAVE A SOLUTION YET TO THE PROBLEM. I FIND THIS TO BE TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE GIVEN THE FACT THE THERE ARE OTHER MUSTANGS PRODUCED SINCE THIS CAR HAS BEEN MANUFACTURED THAT DO NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. OTHER CAR MANUFACTURES (IE. HONDA/ACURA) HAVE BEEN ABLE TO OBTAIN REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THE AIRBAGS ARE ARE AGGRESSIVELY SEEKING OUT OWNERS TO HAVE THE BAGS REPLACED AND EVEN SUGGESTING THAT SOME CARS NOT BE DRIVEN UNTIL REPAIRED.

TAKATA RECALL- I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON THE FREEWAY ONE DAY AND AS I ACCELERATED ON THE GAS GOING OVER 60MPH MY HOOD BEGAN TO SHAKE. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY PRIOR PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR AND THIS STARTED DOING THIS OUT OF THE BLUE. I PULLED OVER TO MAKE SURE ALL THE SCREWS WERE INTACT AND MADE SURE EVERYTHING UNDERNEATH MY CAR WAS INTACT AS WELL. I DID NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. MY HOOD SHAKES ANYTIME I GO OVER 60MPH, AND THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR 4 MONTHS NOW. I TOOK MY CAR INTO A BODY SHOP AND THEY TEST DROVE AND WAS UNSURE OF THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM IS. HOOD SHAKES (VIBRATES) WHEN I DRIVE OVER 60MPH.

VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING, ENGINE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON, DRIVEABLE BUT ONLY IN "LIMP" MODE. AFTER RESTART, ENGINE APPEARED TO WORK FINE, HOWEVER, SAME ISSUE REOCCURRED SEVERAL MORE TIMES AND CONTINUES TO HAPPEN-SIMILAR TO OTHER FORD VEHICLE THROTTLE BODY RECALLS. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS COMPLETE VEHICLE SHUTDOWN OCCURS WITHOUT WARNING. NO RECALL YET.

WHEN I TOOK MY KEY OUT LAST NIGHT THE IGNITION SWITCH CAME OUT ALSO.

"TAKATA RECALL" I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW FOR REPAIRS TO THIS VEHICLE. NO PART AVAILABLE!! MY VEHICLE IS SITTING IN THE GARAGE WHILE I MAKE PAYMENTS. I AM SURE IT IS LOSING VALUE, JUST SITTING!! SHOULD I DRIVE IT? WASN'T SOMEONE JUST KILLED A WEEK AGO WITH THE FAULTY AIRBAG? WHY IS THERE NOT MORE OUTCRY ON THIS? THE RECALL WAS SUCH A BIG DEAL. FINES TO THE COMPANY FOR THE FAULTY AIRBAGS BUT WHAT DID THAT DO FOR ME? THEY GET A FINE BUT I STILL HAVE A VEHICLE I CAN'T DRIVE. ONE YEAR NOW! OTHERS MUST BE DRIVING THEIR VEHICLES. DO YOU SUGGEST I DRIVE MY VEHICLE? THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I WOULD LIKE TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE. I NEED THE PART TO DO THAT.

I WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT GEARS WHILE DRIVING AND THE SERVICE DEPT ADVISED I HAD BAD SYNCHROS AND WAS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. FAST FORWARD A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND HAD DIFFICULTY SWITCHING GEARS FROM 1ST TO 2ND HAD REALLY BAD GRINDING AND WOULD TAKE A COUPLE OF TIMES TO SHIFT. THEN, WHEN STARTING MY CAR FROM MY HOUSE, I WAS UNABLE TO GET THE GEAR INTO REVERSE WHILE THE CAR WAS ON. IT JUST WOULDN'T GO IN TO GEAR... NOT ANY GEAR IN FACT. I HAD TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND PUT IT INTO REVERSE AND THEN TURN THE CAR ON. WHILE THE CLUTCH WAS FULLY PRESSED DOWN THE CAR STARTED MOVING BACKWARDS WHEN I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BREAK. (THE CAR WAS LEVEL AND THAT NEVER HAPPENS). THEN AFTER BACKING UP I COULDN'T GET IT OUT OF REVERSE. I HAD TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND PUT IT IN 1ST AND THEN START THE CAR. THE SAME THING - IT MOVED WITH THE CLUTCH IN AND COULDN'T GET IT OUT OF GEAR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT. AFTER THE TOW, FOR WHATEVER REASON, THEY WERE ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR WITHOUT ISSUE. I'M NOT USED TO DRIVING A CAR WITH SUCH TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS THAT CAN'T BE DIAGNOSED.

TAKATA RECALL - RECALL RECIEVED MAY 2015. NOTICE CONTINUES TO CARRY THE NOTATION THAT THE REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE. TAKING A YEAR TO MAKE PARTS AVAILABLE SEEMS EXTREME AND I DON'T WISH TO CONTINUE DRIVING AN UNSAFE CAR.

"TAKATA RECALL" I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE RECALL LETTERS FROM FORD AND HAVE CONTACTED THEM AND CANNOT GET THE LETTER THAT APPARENTLY WENT OUT IN JULY 2015. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE CAR PURCHASED IN JANUARY 2013. THEY HAVE SAID THIS IS MY PROBLEM AS I MUST NOT HAVE IT REGISTERED CORRECTLY WITH MY STATES DMV. IN CONTACTING THE DMV, THEY HAVE SAID THE CAR IS AND HAS BEEN REGISTERED CORRECTLY. HOW CAN I GET FORD TO SEND ME THE LETTERS AND MAKE SURE THE FUTURE LETTERS COME TO ME. I HAVE NOT CHANGED ADDRESSES SINCE 1992.

EVERY MORNING WHEN I TURN ON MY CAR IN COLD WEATHER I GET THE ERROR MESSAGE "POWER ASSEMBLY FAULT" AND AN INDICATOR THAT TRACTION CONTROL IS SHUT OFF. WHEN THIS HAPPENS I NO LONGER HAVE POWER STEERING OR TRACTION CONTROL. THIS CLEARS UP ONCE I WARM UP THE ENGINE AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON. IT HAPPENS EVERY MORNING NOW THAT WE ARE IN COLDER WEATHER AND CLEARS UP ONCE I HEAT UP THE CAR SO IT SEEMS THAT THESE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS BECOME FAULTY AT 30-40 DEGREE FAHRENHEIT WEATHER.

MY CAR IS PART OF THE TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL. THE RECALL DATE WAS IN MAY OF 2015. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD IN JULY CONFIRMING THAT MY CAR WAS PART OF THE RECALL. I WAITED ABOUT TWO MONTHS AND THEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP ASKING IF THEY KNEW WHEN THE PART WOULD BE IN TO FIX THE ISSUE. THEY TOLD ME THEY DID NOT KNOW WHEN THE PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE BUT THEY WOULD CALL ME AS SOON AS IT WAS IN. I CALLED THE NATIONAL FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE LINE AND THEY INFORMED ME IT WOULD BE AT LEAST APRIL OF 2016 BEFORE THE PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE. I DON'T THINK IT'S ACCEPTABLE TO WAIT ALMOST ONE YEAR TO REPLACE AIRBAGS THAT HAVE BEEN LINKED TO SERIOUS INJURIES AND DEATHS. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A HIGH DEMAND FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS BUT THEY COULD HAVE WENT WITH ANOTHER COMPANY TO GET A REPLACEMENT PART. I AM CONCERNED WHEN I DRIVE MY CAR NOW THAT IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN I MIGHT BE INJURED BY THE AIRBAG THAT IS SUPPOSED TO PROTECT ME.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON MY MUSTANG'S AIRBAGS FIVE MONTHS AGO. FORD HAS NOW FOLLOWED UP ON THE ORIGINAL RECALL NOTICE, NOR WILL THEY FIX THE PROBLEM WHEN I TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP. I AM VERY MUCH WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE.

WE RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 15S21/NHTSA RECALL 15V-319 FROM FORD IN JULY 2015. THE LETTER STATES ..IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, AND THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONTAL AIRBAG RUPTURES, METAL FRAGMENTS COULD STRIKE OCCUPANTS CAUSING INJURY/DEATH. BASED ON THIS NOTICE, WE HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR SINCE RECEIVING THE RECALL NOTICE FORM FORD. I CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER CARE @ 800392-3673. I SPOKE TO SUPERVISOR AL AND TOLD HIM WE WERE NOT DRIVING OUR CAR DUE TO RECALL NOTICE. WHEN WILL IT BE REPAIRED. HE SAID UNKNOWN WHEN PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. HE SAID, NHTSA SAID THE 2013 FORD MUSTANG IS SAFE TO DRIVE UNTIL PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE. IS THE MUSTANG SAFE TO DRIVE OR NOT. WHAT IS YOUR RECOMMENDATION ON.

NOTICED I COULDN'T GET THE CAR (2013 BOSS 302 - BOUGHT NEW) TO SHIFT INTO 3RD GEAR AT HIGHER RPMS. (NOT ON THE TRACK, JUST ON THE FREEWAY). MENTIONED TO LOCAL DEALER AND IT WAS BRUSHED OFF BECAUSE THE CAR WAS SO NEW. WELL, IT STILL HAPPENS AND SEEMS TO BE WORSENING. ONLY 3RD GEAR AND ONLY HIGHER RPMS.

ALL 2013 MUSTANGS COME EQUIPPED WITH LED DRL LAMPS THAT ILLUMINATE FULL TIME WHENEVER THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. THESE ARE TWO WHITE STRIPS ALONGSIDE EACH HEADLAMP. IN BROAD DAYLIGHT, THEY ARE BARELY NOTICEABLE; LESS UP CLOSE. ON OVERCAST DAYS, THEY ARE SLIGHTLY VISIBLE BUT SO DIM, THEY OFFER NO "ADDED" SAFETY EFFECT FOR HAVING THEM ON, VS OTHER VEHICLES WITH DRL'S. I'VE SEEN OTHER MUSTANGS SAME YEAR AS MINE & THEY ARE ALL THE SAME. NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM. AT NIGHT, THEY ARE LIT WITH SAME BRIGHTNESS LEVEL, WHICH IS JUST ABOUT RIGHT (AT NIGHT). WHY DO THEY ADVERTISE HAVING THEM SINCE THEY DO ABSOLUTELY NO GOOD? IN FACT, THEY CAN GIVE THE VEHICLE OPERATOR A FALSE SENSE OF "ADDED SECURITY", THINKING YOU ARE SEEN MORE EASILY BY OTHER DRIVERS? *TR

ON FEBRUARY 24, 2013, I WAS INVOLVED IN A "FENDER BENDER" IN MY BRAND NEW 2013 FORD MUSTANG WHERE I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH. ALTHOUGH THE COLLISION WAS MINOR, AND THE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END WAS MINIMAL, THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT AND SIDE PANEL AIRBAGS BOTH DEPLOYED. THE FRONT AIR BAG SEVERELY BURNED ME WHEN IT EXPLODED OUT UPON IMPACT. I HAVE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE BURNS THAT I HAVE SUFFERED AS THE RESULT OF THE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, AS WELL AS THE DAMAGE TO THE CAR. BASED UPON THE SEVERITY OF THE BURNS THAT I HAVE SUFFERED IT IS APPARENT THAT THE AIRBAG IS DEFECTIVE. AFTER THE COLLISION, I WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM, AND WHILE BEING TREATED THE DOCTOR INDICATED THAT MY BURNS WERE CHEMICALLY INDUCED, AND WERE NOT ABRASION TYPE BURNS FROM CONTACT WITH THE AIRBAG. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT OTHERS MAY SUFFER THE SAME TYPE OF INJURIES. *TR

INCREASING SPEED TO MERGE ONTO KELLOGG IN WICHITA, KANSAS WESTBOUND FROM OLIVER AND TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO JERK, THEN IN A VERY SHORT TIME SPAN, ABOUT 2-3 SECONDS, ENTIRE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN. DEALER DID SOME REPAIR WORK BUT THE CAR HAS HAD NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL INCIDENTS INCLUDING FAILING TO START, SHUTDOWNS, FAILURE OF PASS SIDE WINDOW TO GO ALL THE WAY DOWN, FAILURE OF CLIMATE CONTROL CAUSING FOGGED WINDOWS, SPEAKERS SHORTING OUT, TRUNK OPENING ON ITS OWN, AND SO FORTH. NUMEROUS, BUT STILL SMALL PERCENTAGE OF AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (6R80) ISSUES THAT SEEM TO MATCH MINE. NO ERROR CODES SUGGEST INTERMITTENT FAIL OF CONTACTS AT PASSTHRU CONNECTOR, POSSIBLY RELATED TO POORLY SEATED CONNECTOR INSERT. BARE WIRE WAS DISCOVERED IN PASS DOOR WHEN WINDOWS WAS SERVICED. VEHICLE SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FOR THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE TO ISSUE TSB AS NEEDED TO CORRECT WAS WELL AS INVESTIGATION INTO WIRING HARNESS. NOTE - WE HAVE HAD 3 INCIDENTS WHERE THE PROBLEMS COULD HAVE CAUSED CRASH. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE CLUTCH PREVENTED THE VEHICLE FROM ACCELERATING.

I PARKED MY V-6 AUTO TRANSMISSION MUSTANG ON A SLIGHT INCLINE AND EXITED THE VEHICLE. APPROX 60 SECONDS AFTER EXITING, THE MUSTANG STARTED TO ROLL DOWN THE HILL. I WAS ABLE TO CATCH UP TO IT, DIVE IN HEAD FIRST AND PUSH TRANSMISSION GEAR SELECTOR FORWARD TO MAKE SURE IT WAS IN PARK(IT WAS). IT CONTINUED TO ROLL DOWN HILL UNTIL IT IMPACTED A BUILDING. AFTER IMPACT I CONFIRMED SHIFT LEVER LOCKED IN PARK. THE TRANSMISSION DID NOT LOCK DRIVETRAIN AND THERE WERE NO SKID OR SLIDE MARKS FROM REAR WHEEL LOCKUP. DAYS LATER, I RETURNED TO SCENE AND RECREATED INCIDENT, PARKING IN SAME LOCATION. SAME ANGLE, ETC. PLACING THE CAR IN PARK HELD IT'S POSITION. PLACING THE CAR IN ANY OTHER GEARSHIFT POSITION AND RELEASING THE BRAKE PEDAL CAUSED AN IMMEDIATE ROLL BACK. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY I EXITED THIS VEHICLE UNLESS THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK, IT WOULD OF ROLLED IMMEDIATELY AND THE DOOR WOULD OF KNOCKED ME OVER. MY SUMMARY IS: PARK SELECTION OF GEARSHIFT LEVER FAILED TO LOCK DRIVETRAIN, ALLOWING CAR TO ROLL DOWN HILL AND IMPACT A BUILDING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY FAILED TO ILLUMINATE WHILE ACTIVATED.

12-9-13 TRANSMISSION ISSUE BROUGHT TO FORD DEALE EMAIL TO FORD: SUBJECT: REPAIR ORDER 43617 I WOULD APPRECIATE FORD TO HAVE A CONSIDERATION OF THE FOLLOWING: 1. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A NEW TRANSMISSION PUT INTO THIS 2013 BOSS 302 LAGUNA SAGA WITH UNDER 6000 MILES. 2. RESURFACE FLY WHEEL. 3. REPLACING THE CLUTCH AND PRESSURE PLATE. I PAID OVER $66,000K FOR THIS VEHICLE . AND FOR FORD TO HAVE THE NERVE OF PLACING A MADE IN CHINA "GETRAG" MT-82 INTO AN AMERICAN MUSCLE CAR IS IN MY OPINION IS DESPICABLE. *TR

2013-14 FORD MUSTANG SHELBY GT500S ARE SHIPPED WITH STOCK GOODYEAR EAGLE F1 SUPERCAR G:2 TIRES WHICH, ACCORDING TO A GOODYEAR PRODUCT SERVICE BULLETIN FROM MARCH 28, 2011 ARE KNOWN TO CRACK IN TEMPERATURES BELOW 40F. THE CRACKS APPEAR IN THE SIDEWALLS/TREAD AND CAN CAUSE THE TIRE TO SEPARATE WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING A CRASH AND SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR DEATH. I CALLED FORD TODAY WHEN I NOTICED THAT AT LEAST ONE OF MY REAR TIRES HAD DEVELOPED A CRACK (ITS IN THE 40S OUTSIDE TODAY; WAS HIGH 30S OVERNIGHT - THOUGH MY CAR IS STORED INSIDE IN A 2 CAR GARAGE, AND THEREFORE WARMER). FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE ADVISED THEY WERE POWERLESS TO DO ANYTHING AND I NEEDED TO CONTACT GOODYEAR DIRECTLY. GOODYEAR IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE (THEY ISSUED THE PSB AFTER ALL), AND ARE WILLING TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE TIRES (ON A PRORATED BASIS) - BUT THEY CONTINUE TO SELL THE TIRE!. FORD HAS WASHED THEIR HANDS OF THE ISSUE COMPLETELY AND REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE - STATING THEY'RE NOT AWARE OF GOODYEAR'S PUBLICALLY AVAILABLE PSB (HEARD FROM BOTH FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND LOCAL FORD DEALER). MANY, MANY OWNERS OF THESE CARS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE CRACKS AND REPLACED TIRES AT THEIR OWN COST (USUALLY SWITCHING TO ANOTHER BRAND). FORD NEEDS TO STOP SELLING CARS WITH THESE TIRES AND GOODYEAR NEED TO STOP PUTTING LIFE-THREATENING PRODUCT ON THE MARKET. I'M AWARE OF AT LEAST 1 INCIDENT OF A TIRE BLOWING MID-DRIVE RESULTING IN A 13/14 GT500 BEING TOTALED, AND AM HAPPY TO POINT THE NHTSA TO COUNTLESS THREADS ON ENTHUSIAST FORUM DETAILING THE ISSUE WITH PICTURES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ENTERING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT SMELLED FUEL EMERGING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, HE BEGAN TO SHIFT GEARS AND HEARD A GRINDING NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION AND THEY STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REBUILT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 222.

I ACCELERATED FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT, FROM A FULL STOP. AT APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH I DEPRESSED FULLY THE CLUTCH PEDAL IN ORDER TO SHIFT INTO 2ND GEAR. THE CLUTCH PEDAL REMAINED IN THE FULLY DEPRESSED POSITION AND DID NOT RETURN TO THE RAISED POSITION. THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER COULD NOT BE MOVED INTO ANY GEAR, BUT COULD BE MOVED FREELY WITHIN THE NEUTRAL POSITION. I RAISED THE CLUTCH PEDAL BY PLACING THE TIP OF MY SHOE UNDER IT AND PULLING UPWARD, BUT NO CHANGE WAS OBSERVED IN THE OPERATION OF THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER. I COULD START, AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE AS USUAL, THUS I HAD POWER BRAKES AND POWER STEERING AS I PUSHED THE CAR AND THEN COASTED TO A STORE'S PARKING LOT. I HAD THE CAR TOWED HOME. THERE WAS NO CHANGE IN THE OPERATION OF THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER OR THE CLUTCH PEDAL AFTER THE CAR HAD BEEN PARKED OVERNIGHT. THE CLUTCH PEDAL REMAINS FULLY DEPRESSED, UNLESS ONE RAISES IT. THE CONDITION DESCRIBED ABOVE HAS NOT AFFECTED THE OPERATION OF THE STARTER INTERLOCK, THUS THE ENGINE WILL NOT START UNLESS THE CLUTCH PEDAL IS FULLY DEPRESSED. *TR

WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED MY VEHICLE, I NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD MAKE A GRINDING SOUND LIKE METAL ON METAL WHEN I WOULD PUSH THE BRAKES TO STOP. THIS FIRST HAPPENED AT AROUND 2K MILES. I SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THEY ASKED ME A QUESTION, THEY ASKED "HOW OFTEN DO YOU DRIVE THE VEHICLE?" THEN THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT "IF YOU DONOT DRIVE IT ENOUGH, IT IS RUST ON THE ROTORS CAUSING THIS NOISE." THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND THAT WAS THAT. I LATER ON TOOK MY VEHICLE IN WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT AT AROUND 10K MILES WHEN I WANTED TO HAVE MY OIL CHANGED AND MY TIRES ROTATED. I WANTED THEM TO CHECK MY BRAKING SYSTEM WHILE DOING THAT. AFTER SERVICE WAS DONE, THEY INFORMED ME THAT NO ISSUES WERE FOUND WITH MY BRAKES, OR THE BRAKING SYSTEM. MY VEHICLE STILL MAKES THE NOISE WHEN I PUSH THE BREAKS. I AM NOT SURE IF THERE IS ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS ISSUE, BUT THE ISSUE IS STILL HAPPENING TO ME. *TR

THE VEHICLES INTERIOR DOOR PANELS WILL RATTLE WHILE THE CAR ACCELERATES AND WHEN THE VEHICLE STEREO IS PLAYING. THE VEHICE HAS BEEN IN TO HAVE THIS ADDRESSED NUMEROUS TIMES AND MULTIPLE DEALERS ARE UNABLE TO REPAIR THE ISSUE. DOOR PANELS HAVE BEEN REPLACED TO NO AVAIL.

UNDER MODERATE TO HEAVY BRAKING THE CARS BRAKE PEDAL WILL PULSATE AND GO TO THE FLOOR BUT THE VEHICLE WILL STILL BE MOVING FORWARD AND TAKE AN EXTENDED TIME TO SLOW DOWN. FORD STATES THATS THIS IS NORMAL OPERATION. LAST TIME I CHECKED WHEN YOU GO TO APPLY THE BRAKES THE VEHICLE IS SUPPOSED TO STOP NOT TAKE ITS SWEET TIME SLOWING DOWN. *TR

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

INCIDENT: WHILE WAITING IN THE LEFT TURN LANE FOR THE LEFT TURN LIGHT TO TURN GREEN I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. I WAS BEHIND ANOTHER LEFT TURNING VEHICLE. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE SO TO APPLY PRESSURE ON THE ACCELERATOR. HOWEVER, BEFORE I PUT MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO REAPPLY BRAKE AND THE CAR STOPPED. THIS TOOK PLACE ON LEVEL GROUND ON SOUTH BOUND HIGHWAY 19 AT HENRY ST. IN KONA. *TR

WHILE REFUELING MY VEHICLE IN THE NEW CAP LESS FUEL FILLER PORT, AS I PULLED OUT THE NOZZLE EXCESS FUEL SPILLED OUT AROUND THE CAP LESS FILLER PORT. THE DRAINS AROUND THE CAP LESS PORT DRAINED THE SPILLED FUEL INSIDE THE QUARTER PANEL OF CAR WHICH DIRECTED THE FUEL DIRECTLY ONTO THE DRIVERS SIDE MUFFLER. IF MY CAR HAD BEEN HOT, THE FUEL WOULD HAVE IGNITED. THIS SEEMS TO ME TO BE A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION. *TR
