2015 Ford Mustang 2 DR RWD

There is a circular pin in the brake pedal that interacts with the brake switch sensor that basically disintegrated. Not having this part does not allow me to brake properly and caused me to get into an accident and would not allow my car to accelerate properly. Also, without this part the car will not turn off. The dealership told me that they had never seen this issue; however, I have found many incidents on the internet where this is a common problem in Ford vehicles. There were no warnings at all.

The aluminum top part of my wheel lug nuts rounded off and had to be replaced.

The rear backup camera will periodically fail and not show what is behind the vehicle while backing up. The backup camera monitor will receive a message that states contact the dealer for repair. This is similar to the same recall notice I received for my 2020 Ford Mustang GT, yet I have never received notification of a recall for the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. I reported this same issue to my Ford Dealer when I purchased my 2020 Ford Mustang GT. The lack of a back camera resulted in a collision in a parking lot while driving the 2015 Ford Mustang GT because the other driver was out of my line of sight while I was backing out of a parking space, resulting in a collision.

This car has been in the shop and repaired almost every year since purchase for the same part/problem. The evaporator assembly has been completely replaced twice. The first time was 6 months after purchase and only 9000 miles on the car. The most recent time this part has went out, 11/23/2021, the cabin filled with smoke while I was driving. Smelled like a camp fire so I was concerned the car was on fire. I believe if I hadn’t pulled over, the car would’ve been engulfed in flames with me inside. This is a definite safety concern, and wonder why there has been no recall on this part. Especially if the car can actually catch fire. No check engine or warning lights appeared. Just a cabin full of smoke. Ford is now saying it’s the evaporator assembly, again, and it will cost $2600 to fix. I feel this should’ve been fixed the first time. This is an ongoing problem with this car from what I’ve read and believe Ford needs to do something about it. How many lives should it cost? Mine is worth more then $2600. Should be an easy fix for a multi billion dollar company!!!

As I was driving on the freeway, out of nowhere my car started losing gas power which almost caused me to get rear ended. Later on that night I almost lost full control of the car when it lost power since I started swerving. through out the night it continued to lose power and then the "hill side assistance" light came on notifying me that it was not available/functioning and my break lights would not turn off at all, even when the car was off and locked. I took it to the dealer and they could not find the problem. Then I took it the a mechanic which he was able to temporarily fix it but it was not a permanent fix. we had to create the part, as the ford company did not have it anywhere. If I would have been on the street I would have lost control and who knows if a pedestrian could have been walking, It could have ended tragic. this is something that needs to be review and fix by ford company. This is a severe safety issues, it seems not only my car is having the same issue but other ford mustangs as well. Since the dealer did not have that small piece, they attempted to sale me the entire part which was $500. not every one can afford the entire part, and for a small piece which should cost no more than $20 that can cause injuries should not be ignored.

Brake switch pad on the break pedal failed and fell out

Driving in town when the front passenger window began to continually drop about half inch and close again. When I got onto the highway the front passenger door unlatched and the 'door open' alert displayed. This happened several times during one driving trip. I stop and reclose the door and take off again. This has happened several times during different driving trips. In the meantime the window continues to go up and down. That tells me that the door in not latching properly. My VIN number does not appear to be included in the 20V331000 2015 ford mustang recall dated 2020-06-07 as I have not received a recall letter from ford.

Traveling on highway using cruise control at posted speed limit. Approached slowdown due to accident and applied brakes. Accelerated to limit (manually) after passing accident. I was in middle lane. Vehicle abruptly began to decelerate. Continuous pressure on gas pedal did not increase speed, so I put on hazards and moved to slow lane. No failures on dashboard and quick scan through gages did not identify an issue. Re-applied pressure to gas pedal wanting to get to next exit. Car sped up, but when approaching 50 mph, it decreased again. Found that pumping gas would allow me to maintain highway speed. Pulled into truck stop at exit and turned car off. Message on console "Hill start assist not available". Let vehicle rest 15 minutes, added gas. Quick web search seemed to point to problem with ABS sensor. Seemed to drive ok in parking lot and road leading to highway ramp. Decided to try to get closer to home. Problem occurs immediately after climbing to 50 mph. Cruise control won't work. By carefully monitoring speed and pumping gas into overdrive when needed, I was able to get home. Could not get appointment with dealership until late afternoon next day. Hill start assist message comes on again when stopping. After arriving home and parking in garage I went inside for about 30 minutes. Needed to unload items from car and went back to garage noticing that the strip of lights above trunk are still on. Got back in car, started it (got hill assist message), turned lights on/off and turned off car. Now my rear brake lights are also on. I had seen a post about this, so unhooked battery to prevent drain. Next morning, reattached battery and had same problem. After more internet investigation, Awesome humans who have also had this dangerous issue and provided a $5 fix instead of a $500+ dealership fix. https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/brake-light-switch-near-pedal-failure.122100/pag SUDDEN UNEXPECTED THROTTLE CAUSING SLOWDOWN ON BUSY INTERSTATE IS LIFE THREATENING.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Mustang. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V331000 (Latches/Locks/Linkages). The contact stated while driving 80 MPH, the front driver’s and passenger’s side doors opened inadvertently. The contact slowed down the vehicle and was able to close the front driver’s side door. The driver then pulled over and closed the front passenger’s side door. The contact stated that the failure recurred several times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for the recall repair however after the dealer inspected the latch date codes, the dealer informed the contact that the manufacturer did not approve the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that the latch date codes were deemed safe in their system and no further action was required. The failure mileage was approximately 45,800.

AC stopped working, evaporator coil was leaking, it is located under dash so repair requires excessive labor charge. cost was $2500 for a $100 part. Online there are many reports of this deflective part. My car was out of warranty so I had to bear the entire price. this is not fair.

I was driving on Interstate-95 in Washington, DC going about 55 mph in heavy traffic. Without warning my car lost acceleration and the car almost immediately slowed to approximately 35 mph, despite my foot still being on the accelerator--pushing on the accelerator did nothing. Then after several seconds, the car sped up again, but when I reached around 40 mph, the car lost acceleration again for several seconds. It kept doing this over the course of my entire trip, which was about 5 miles. I had to pull in the shoulder lane driving with my hazards flashing. After I parked my car and turned it off, I noticed my brake lights were still on. I googled the issue, and the source of the problem is a faulty transluscent plastic/rubber brake switch stop pad (that is connected to the brake pedal and when the brake is released the brake switch stop pad pushes in the brakeswitch turning off the brake lights), which broke during my trip. I found the broken pieces on my floorboard (i took a photo of them and kept them). Because the car senses that the brakes are still being applied it cuts power to the accelerator. This was highly dangerous on the interstate and it broke with no warning. Fortunately, it didn't cause an accident. While reviewing the fix (Ford doesn't sell the replacement part; instead they want you to replace the entire brake pedal for about $500) on a Mustang Owner Forum, numerous people echoed the same problem with many having it occur while driving. The fix involves buying a $5-10 part from Dorman which is made for another vehicle.

The Aluminum cast Crossmember that supports the transmission is cracked and split in several places .Shifting and or jumping in or out of gear .The dealer wanted $800.00 dollars to replace a $132. part That is hard to find in the marketplace ,because of others buying these faulty parts up ! No warning signs except hard to shift , cracked part was found by Benson ford in Easley S.C. The car has less than 70,000 miles on it . No warnings whatsoever !

Cheap plastic disk between the brake pedal assembly and the plumber rod that should only control lights dried up and broke off. This issue has been reported many times and you have not handled it properly. Not only do the brake lights come on but the uphill traction control goes crazy and the vehicle begins to lose power without notice. This could result in an accident and death as the car could be on a highway and suddenly lose power. Ford doesn't offer a replacement part for this. Other car manufactures have a similar plastic part. Fords solution is to spend nearly $1000 for a > $10 item. This needs to be taken more seriously than some of your other recall items you report.

Fuel line. There is a sensor that comes on when you put fuel in the vehicle. I think it has to do with the vapor line from past Ford recalls on mustangs.

Brake light switch pad broke , So the car thinks the brakes are on so it goes into "limp mode" and it starts turning off assist modes.

The issue is the Brake Light switch stop pad on the brake pedal which is a rubber type of plug. At 70,000 miles the brake light switch stop pad cracked and fell into floor board (see pictures). When that happened, the RPMs dropped to idle speed and the car slowed down. After a few seconds, the car would pick up speed again only to repeat the event over and over again. I understand that when the brake light switch stop pad is missing and the plunger on the switch is fully out, the car thinks that you are applying the brakes. I was lucky, I was on a two lane road with no traffic, but I was headed to an inter-state with heavy traffic. Ford (nor does anyone else) does not sell just the rubber plug which fits on the brake pedal, but it will sell the complete brake pedal assembly. Not sure the reason that the brake pedal would require the hole that requires the rubber plug, but think that Ford should be responsible for the replacement or a better solution for the repair (Provide a replacement plug, not just the complete Brake pedal assembly. Thank you for you time in this matter.

Brake pedal pad failed, causing car to suddenly brake even though brakes were not being applied. Ford Dealership recommended replacing brake light switch assembly. Brake lights stayed on even after the car was turned off. Had to disconnect the battery to prevent drain.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Mustang. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the passenger’s side door opened inadvertently. The dealer was not contacted or informed of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not under recall. The approximate failure mileage was 130,000.

I'm on highway going 70mph and all the sudden my car slows down drastically to about 35mph and won't accelerate any higher. I almost caused an accident. After I got home I also noticed my brake lights would not go off, even after the car was off for a bit. I had to undo the battery.

The mustang has a problem with its HVAC system. The A/C needs to be serviced constantly making the reliability of these cars come into question. These are conveniences every driver needs in their car. I'm going to return my 2015 in 1 year for a car with a reliable AC unit. A Toyota or honda

Door latches become undone as I drive causing the doors to open. This happens often and happened when I first bought the vehicle in 2017

The driver's side window will go up and down constantly when vehicle is turned off on my 2015 Mustang GT, so annoying and scary, hate for someones fingers to get caught in it, I can role them down and back up a million times and it still does it, I even open and shut the door multiple times, but still does it! Not sure what the insurance company would say about it if I told them. Maybe something to do with the lock, sensor, security system. When window is slighly down, it could be at risk for theft. (and Ford, lets not even dicuss your Shi**y paint job!)

While driving and pressing on accelerator pedal car slows down without pressing the gas as if the car is about to turn off. This is a very dangerous hazard as I am in the middle of a highway which can cause an accident if it does turn ofd. I noticed that the brake lights are on 24 hours a day whether the vehicle is off or on , this could be the issue, something is either jammed in the engine system or the brakes sensors are messed up and are not telling the rest of the car that the car is on and moving. There is no messages that are telling me inside the mustang that something is wrong with my car . I have had my car 6 years and this is the first time I see this happening.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Mustang. The contact stated while driving approximately 60-65 mph, the vehicle failed to accelerate while the accelerator pedal was depressed. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. Neither the dealer nor manufacturer were made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 50,000. The Vin was not available.

Recently, the camera on my 2015 Mustang has not been connecting regularly. The display will occasionally say the camera is not available, contact dealership. In researching it appears that the wiring to the camera and other associated trunk area lighting can be cut or worn through, creating a defective and potentially dangerous situation. The videos and comment sites are abundant with this issue. During my research, I noticed that there is a huge, nearly identical recall in place for 2020 vehicles. I suspect this is the same issue. The issue is not just happening in Mustangs. Other vehicles where the wiring is sheathed in a certain way or subject to movement can show the same issue.

The trunk opens while driving. It opens without warning and not every time. Also the trunk may or may not open when using the key fob, button inside or outside.

The information was not on the vehicle other than the vin. I called Purvis Ford in Fredericksburg, VA and was told the inspection to find the information was not free as it said in the recall notice. I must pay a tech service fee for them to inspect the car doors for the recall information. I said fine I would like to make an appointment for the inspection. The appointment given was for October 26, 2021 as this was the soonest they could get me in. I did not make the appointment as they clearly did not want my business.

Plastic clip for brake light switch disintegrates over time, causing reduced power and inoperative brake lights.

Bolt at the back of the engine rattled loose and scarred the torque converter, flexplate, bell housing of the transmission, and the block of the engine.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Mustang. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V331000 (Latches/Locks/Linkages). The vehicle was taken to a dealer and the contact was informed that the door latches functioned as needed and did not need to be replaced. The recall designation was then removed from the vehicle and the vehicle was returned to the contact. A few months later, the contact stated that the passenger’s door started to rattle and independently opened while driving without warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the vehicle was no longer under recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the recall and the contact was referred to the NHTSA for assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

Hi, I recently noticed my driver side door or not aligned with the body. And when I went to your website after noticing I found out that there was a recall issued on this situation. I think it’s the door hinges. Please let me know as what should be my next step as this doesn’t sound safe. Thanks [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The brake light switch function was inhibited due to the plastic retainer mounted on the pedal assembly. The plastic retainer had become brittle and caused it to come apart in pieces. The retainer acts a point of contact for the brake light switch plunger which signals to the ECM when the driver is applying or not applying the brakes. Symptoms of failure are constant illumination of rear brake lights with vehicle on or off. Disables cruise control. Also most importantly it limits throttle control by reducing throttle range spraticly. No driver warnings or lights are displayed or illuminated on the IPC. Problem has been verified and reproduced by independent service center.

Air conditioning & cooled seats no longer work. Only hot air blows. The car just barely has 28K miles. This has happened to multiple mustangs w low mileage.

A NON-CONDUCTIVE PAD IS INSTALLED BETWEEN THE BRAKE SENSOR SWITCH AND BRAKE ARM. THE PAD BECOMES BRITTLE OVER TIME AND BREAKS ALLOWING THE BRAKE SENSOR TO ENGAGE. THIS CAUSES THE CAR TO GO INTO 'LIMP' MODE WHICH CAN OCCUR WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IT OCCURS RANDOMLY AND CAN HAPPEN AT HIGH SPEEDS.

BREAK SWITCH PAD IS REALLY EASY TO BREAK. BREAK LIGHTS STAY ON AFTER CAR IS STOPPED AND IN PARK AND CUT OFF. WHILE DRIVING VERY DANGEROUS GET NO POWER TO SPEED UP AND WHEN YOU HIT THE GAS NOTHING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE DOOR OPENED INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V331000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES) A MONTH PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 97,000.

MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WILL FLY OPEN WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING

MY BATTERY DIED AND REQUIRED A JUMP THE NEXT MORNING. WHEN I BEGAN DRIVING, THE CAR WAS THROTTLING DOWN AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE AS IF THE ENGINE WAS LOSING POWER. I DIDN'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING SO I RETURNED HOME AND NOTICE THAT MY REAR LIGHTS INCLUDING THE BRAKE LIGHT STAYED ILLUMINATED EVEN WHEN THE CAR WAS OFF. I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY IN ORDER TO SAVE MY BATTERY FROM DRAINING AGAIN. AFTER SOME INVESTIGATING I FOUND THE BRAKE SWITCH PAD WAS BROKEN AND THIS IS WHAT WAS CAUSING THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO BE ON ALL THE TIME AND CAUSING THE LACK OF ENGINE POWER. THIS ISSUE WAS NOT ALLOWING THE CAR TO ACCELERATE BECAUSE THE THROTTLE IS OVER-RIDDEN BY THE BRAKES. THE CAR WAS THINKING THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS BEING PUSHED AT THE SAME TIME AS THE GAS PEDAL. THE BRAKE SWITCH PAD BREAKING AND CAUSING THIS PROBLEM IS VERY DANGEROUS. I'M SO LUCKY IT HAPPENED ON A LOCAL ROAD AND NOT THE HIGHWAY. I'VE READ MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE. FORD NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL AND GET THIS FIXED TO AVOID MAJOR ACCIDENTS.

2015 MUSTANG GT ANNIVERSARY EDITION. RIGHT TAILLIGHT FUNCTION ARE INTERMITTENT IN PART OR WHOLE. AFFECTED ARE TAILLIGHT, TURN SIGNAL, BRAKE, AND EMERGENCY FLASHER. THIS CURS WHETHER IN MOTION OR NOT. HAS BEEN IN EFFECT AT START OR DURING RUN WHILE DRIVING.

HEATED/COOLED SEAT MODULE SHORTED, BURNED, AND MELTED THE WIRING HARNESS. SEAT FUNCTION IS NO LONGER OPERATIVE.

WHEN USING DRIVER'S MEMORY FUNCTIONS, DRIVER AND PASSENGER MIRRORS TILT IN ONE DIRECTION TO IT'S LIMITS AND CLICKS MULTIPLE TIMES. DOES NOT GO BACK TO PRESET SETTING UNLESS THE MEMORY BUTTON IS PRESSED ANOTHER TIME.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 TWIN ECO-BOOST CAR ON A CITY STREET,WHEN I I HEARD SOMETHING UNDER HOOD.AND RIGHT AT THAT MOMENT SMOKE WAS ROLLING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD.WHEN I STOPPED AND GOT OUT,THATS WHEN A WITNESS TOLD ME SHE SAW FLAMES COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE CAR IT MELTED EVERYTHING UNDER THE HOOD.EVERY WIRE WAS EXSPOSED.I AM WAITING FOR REPORT FROM FIRE DEPARTMENT.I DO HAVE A PICTURE OF IT.FIRE CHIEF SAID BATTERY EXPLODED.

CLIMATE CONTROLLED SEATS STOPPED WORKING. WHILE DIAGNOSING THE ISSUE I FOUND THAT CONNECTOR C3265B ON THE FRONT SEAT CLIMATE CONTROL MODULE WAS BURNED SEVERELY AND MELTED.

THE EVAPORATOR CORE HAS BEEN NOTATED IN A SERVICE BULLETIN AS BEING FAULTY. THIS MERELY CAUSES THE A/C TO NOT WORK EFFICIENTLY AT FACE VALUE. THE REAL ISSUE IS THE INABILITY TO PROPERLY DEFOG/DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, RENDERING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE DUE TO POOR VISIBILITY THAT IS NOT CONTROLLABLE BY THE OPERATOR OF THE VEHICLE.

2015 FORD MUSTANG GT WITH ABOUT 43,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING CAR ON RESIDENTIAL STREET AT ABOUT 30 MPH, LOUD NOISE CAME FROM ENGINE, PULLED OVER AND TURNED CAR OFF. CAR NO LONGER CRANKED. TOWED CAR TO MECHANIC AND HE STATED THAT LIKELY ENGINE SEIZED AND A FACTORY DEFECT. ENGINE WAS WELL MAINTAINED AND SHOWED NO SYMPTONS OF ENGINE PROBLEM PRIOR TO FAILURE. ATTEMPED TO CALL FORD MULTIPLE TIMES AT THE PHONE NUMBER (1-866-436-7332) ON NHTSA SITE AND PLACED ON HOLD FOR MULTIPLE HOURS WITHOUT ANY ANSWER.

THE BRAKE PEDAL STOPPER FAILED. THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON ALL THE TIME, YOU ARE UNABLE TO ACCELERATE SAFELY. THIS IS A DRIVEABILITY AND SAFETY ISSUE AND POOR DESIGN. THIS OCCURED WHILE DRIVING ON STREET, WHEN I STOPPED IS WHEN I NOTICED THE BRAKE LIGHTS ON AFTER 15 MINUTES BEING STOPPED. I RESTARTED CAR AND ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE BUT UNABLE TO EFFECTIVELY. I HAD A VEHICLE FOLLOW ME AROUND BLOCK AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON ALL THE TIME. HAD VEHICLE TRAILERED TO THE FORD DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. THIS VEHICLE HAS ONLY 1857 MILES ON IT.

THE CLUTCH PEDAL OF MY MUSTANG FAILED AT JUST OVER 90,000 MILES. I WAS DRIVING IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN THE PEDAL WAS NO LONGER ABLE TO BE OPERATED SAFELY AND REQUIRED TWISTING MY LEG IN ORDER TO PUSH THE PEDAL DOWN. AFTER LIMPING THE VEHICLE HOME, I INSPECTED THE PEDAL AND FOUND THAT WELD THAT JOINED ONE SIDE OF THE PEDAL ARM TO THE PIVOT BAR HAD BROKEN OFF COMPLETELY, AND THE OTHER SIDE HAD CRACKED. THIS ALLOWED SIGNIFICANT LATERAL MOVEMENT OF THE PEDAL, WHICH CAUSED IT TO HANG UP IN THE ASSEMBLY WHEN PUSHING IT IN. THERE WAS NO ABUSE LOADING OF THE PEDAL THROUGH THE LIFE OF THE CAR. AS A MECHANICAL ENGINEER, I CAN SAY WITH CONFIDENCE THAT THE WELD THAT BROKE OFF WAS BAD/COLD, AND THAT ONCE IT BROKE, SHIFTED ALL THE PEDAL LOADS TO THE OTHER SIDE, RESULTING IN ITS FAILURE. THIS DESIGN IS NOT ROBUST TO TYPICAL MANUFACTURING QUALITY VARIATIONS DUE TO THE WELDS BEING ONLY 90 DEG AROUND THE CIRCUMFERENCE. MY FAILURE IS ONLY ONE OF DOZENS THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED IN MODEL SPECIFIC FORUMS AND ON SOCIAL MEDIA. I HAVE ENCOURAGED OTHERS WITH THIS ISSUE TO REPORT THEIRS.

INTERMITTENT FUNCTION OF RIGHT REAR TAIL LIGHT, INCLUDING TAILLIGHT, TURN SIGNAL, BRAKING, AND EMERGENCY FLASHER UPON RUN AND DURING DRIVE. I SUSPECT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

THE RIGHT REAR TAILLIGHT WILL INTERMITTENTLY FUNCTION (TAIL LIGHT, TURN SIGNAL, STOP LIGHT) AS A WHOLE WHILE IN MOTION OR STOPPED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL OUT MULTIPLE TIMES SOON AFTER START UP AS THE ENGINE AND SERVICE TIRE MOBILITY KIT WARNING LIGHTS WOULD APPEAR ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHITE SMOKE WOULD INTERMITTENTLY EMIT FROM THE REAR EXHAUST PIPE WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH RATES OF SPEED. SHE ALSO STATED THAT THE SAME WARNING LIGHT WOULD APPEAR ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE HE DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE WITH A DEFECTIVE FUEL TANK PRESSURE SENSOR. THE CONTACT THEN CALLED HENRY CURTIS FORD(1120 AUTO CENTER DR, PETALUMA, CA 94952) WHERE THEY INFORMED HER THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY OR ON RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS THEN OFFERED A DIAGNOSTIC FEE WHICH SHE DECLINE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND GAVE HER THE SAME INFORMATION AS THE DEALER;THEY OFFERED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE HAD YET TO BE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 90,000.

THE A/C IS NOT BLOWING COLD AIR. IT SEEMS TO AN ISSUE WITH MUSTANGS 2015 AND UP. IT BLOWS AIR BUT IT IS NOT COLD. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT THIS HAPPENED.

THE REARVIEW CAMERA WILL INTERMITTENTLY DISPLAY A BLANK OR DISTORTED IMAGE. WHEN PLACING THE CAR IN REVERSE THE CAMERA WILL INTERMITTENTLY DISPLAY A BLANK SCREEN OR DISTORTED IMAGE WHILE REVERSING THE VEHICLE. THIS REDUCES THE DRIVER'S VIEW OF WHAT IS BEHIND THE VEHICLE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. THIS HAPPENS WHEN BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT MY 2020 FORD MUSTANG GT VIN [XXX] HAS JUST RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR. THE CAMERA BEGAN TO FAIL THE SUMMER OF 2020. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY, GOT IT REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND NOW AGAIN WENT BAD BUT NO MORE WARRANTY. THE AC COMPRESSOR WENT OUT AND EVAPORATOR CORE IS BAD(VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH 15-17 MODELS), IT CAUSES WINDSHIELD TO FOG UP BAD AND CAN BARELY SEE AT TIMES WHEN DRIVING, VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX TOO.

MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR KEEPS OPENING WHILE I AM DRIVING , IT'S REALLY UNSAFE AND REALLY WANT TO GET THIS FIXED. EVEN IF I'M NOT ON THE HIGHWAY EVEN SMALL ROADS WHERE I HAVE TO GO SLOWER IT OPENS. IT HAS HAPPENED MORE THEN ONCE 11/10/2020 WAS THE MOST RECENT.

SUDDENLY STARTED EXPERIENCING A LOSS OF POWER AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ONLY REMEDIED BY SLAMMING THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR WHICH THEN CAUSED THE CAR TO SURGE FORWARD. AFTER GETTING THE CAR HOME ALSO NOTICED THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ON AT ALL TIMES. THE TWIN PROBLEMS ENDED UP BEING CONNECTED. TURNS OUT THERE IS A SMALL PLASTIC/CERAMIC PIECE IN THE BRAKE ASSEMBLY THAT FAILS AND BREAKS APART WITHOUT WARNING - ALSO NO DASHBOARD WARNINGS AFTER IT FAILS. CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO THINK THE BRAKES ARE BEING APPLIED AND CUTS THE POWER IN RESPONSE. THIS HAPPENED WHILE TRAVELING AT INTERSTATE HIGHWAY SPEED AND WAS AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY ISSUE. WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THIS SMALL PART IS VERY SUSCEPTIBLE TO FLORIDA HEAT - UNFORTUNATELY THE WHOLE BRAKE ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REPLACED.

2015 FORD MUSTANG ECOBOOST CONVERTIBLE - WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY OVER 65MPH THE PASSENGER DOOR UNLATCHES AND A WARNING SIGNAL APPEARS ON THE DASH STATING THE PASSENGER DOOR IS OPEN.

THERE IS A SMALL PAD ON THE BRAKE PEDAL BETWEEN THE PEDAL SHAFT AND THE BRAKE LIGHT ACTIVATION SWITCH. THIS PAD SHATTERED INTO SMALL PARTS CAUSING MY BRAKE LIGHTS TO REMAIN ILLUMINATED EVEN WHEN I WASN'T BRAKING. THERE WAS NO WARNING PROVIDED BY THE CAR THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ON. THE LIGHTS WERE ON WHEN DRIVING, WHEN PARKED WITH THE VEHICLE RUNNING OR NOT RUNNING. I BELIEVE IT BROKE WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE BUT I CAN'T BE SURE. THERE ARE MULTIPLE PADS WITHIN THE PEDAL CLUSTER ON THE CLUTCH AND OTHER PEDALS THAT ARE THE SAME PART AND MAY BE PRONE TO FAILURE. THE ATTACHED PHOTO INCLUDES THE BROKEN PART AND A PICTURE INDICATING THE EMPTY SPOT WHERE THE PART IS MISSING.

THE GETRAG MT-82 TRANSMISSION LOCKS ME OUT OF 2ND GEAR WHEN IM ACCELERATING HARDLY FOR EX. MERGING ON THE HIGHWAY. ALSO MY MUSTANG IS PLAGUED WITH ELECTRICAL ISSUES RANGING FROM CONNECTING WITH BLUETOOTH, INOPERABLE BACKUP CAMERA, TAG LIGHT WIRE STRIPPED. SOMETIMES WHEN I START MY VEHICLE, BLUETOOTH WILL NOT CONNECT TO MY PHONE FOR REASONS I DONT KNOW. ALSO THE BACKUP CAMERA WORKS 10% OF THE TIME. IVE READ THAT FORDS WIRING IS BEING CRIMPED IN BETWEEN THE TRUNK LID. LASTLY THE REAR TAG LIGHT WIRES HAVE BEEN STRIPPED/CORRODED DUE TO POOR WEATHER PROTECTION.

BACK UP CAMERA BEGAN WORKING SPORADICALLY, THEN QUIT COMPLETELY. DEALER WANTS $440 TO REPLACE CAMERA. VEHICLE HAD ONLY 28,145 MILES.

BACKUP CAMERA AND TRUNK BRAKE LIGHT DO NOT WORK DUE TO KNOWN FLAW IN TRUNK WIRING HARNESS DESIGN. WIRES INSIDE THE HARNESS BREAK FROM OPENING AND CLOSING TRUNK DUE TO COMPRESSION. DEALERSHIP HAS REPAIRED ONCE WHILE UNDER WARRANTY BY CHEAPLY REPLACING SECTIONS OF BROKEN WIRE AND CRUDELY WRAPPING THE ENTIRE HARNESS WITH BLACK ELECTRICAL TAPE, HOWEVER MORE WIRES HAVE BROKEN IN NEW LOCATIONS ALONG THE HARNESS. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT WITH A TECHNICAL BULLETIN PUBLISHED BY FORD. HOWEVER THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE COMMON WITH 15-17 MUSTANGS. DESPITE CLEARLY EXPLAINING WHAT WAS WRONG, THEY CLAIMED I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $125 DIAGNOSTIC FEE BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW IF THE WIRING MIGHT HAVE BEEN CHEWED BY 'VARMINTS.'

I OWN A 2015 FORD MUSTANG ECOBOOST PREMIUM. I BOUGHT IT USED AND HAD IT A FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF. AT APPROXIMATELY 65000 MILES THE AIR CONDITIONER STARTED TO NOT WORK FULLY. THE DRIVER SIDE AIR CONDITION WOULD TAKE LONGER THAN THE PASSENGER SIDE TO COOL OFF. A SMALL HOLE IN MY AIR CONDITIONER'S EVAPORATOR HAS DEVELOPED. I SEARCHED AROUND AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN 2015 TO 2017 FORD MUSTANGS. I KNOW THIS ISN'T REALLY A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT JUST WANTED TO GET THIS OUT THERE BECAUSE I AM READING IT ON OTHER WEBSITES AND FORD HAS NOT RECALLED FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM.

THROTTLE BODY FAILING AT 60K, FORD HAS TSB FOR 2016+ MUSTANG THROTTLE BODIES WITH SAME ISSUE, NOT 2015. CODE P2112. VEHICLE RANDOMLY GOES INTO LIMP MODE AT ANYWHERE FROM 10MPH TO 60MPH. HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS INCLUDING TWICE IN THE LAST TWO DAYS.

BELOW ARE RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE FOR THE FUEL SYSTEM ISSUE WHICH IS PROBLEM MY CAR IS HAVING. AFTER I PUT GAS IN THE CAR STRUGGLES TO START AND NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. MY CAR HAS 36000 MILES ON IT AND I DO OIL CHANGES REGULARLY..IVE RAN MY VIN FOR THE RECALL BUT MY CAR DOES NOT MEET THE QUALIFICATIONS EVEN THOUGH THE RECALL IS FOR MY EXACT MODEL?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN HIS DAUGHTER WOULD DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, SHE COULD SMELL A BURNING RUBBER ODOR EMITTING FROM THE VEHICLE. WHILE THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AT 50 MPH, SHE NOTICED WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE WITHOUT WARNING. THE DRIVER IMMEDIATELY PULLED AND CALLED HER FATHER. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DISCOVERED THAT THE VALVE COVER GASKET HAD CAUSED OIL TO SPILL OVER THE MANIFOLD. THE CONTACT THEN CALLED ANGELA KRAUSE FORD (1575 MANSELL RD, ALPHARETTA, GA 30009) WHERE THEY INFORMED HIM THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE AND REFERRED HIM TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED HIM THAT THE DEALER WOULD HAVE TO PERFORM A DIAGNOSTIC TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE.

BREAK SENSOR PAD BROKE CAUSING LIGHTS TO ALWAYS STAY ON AND CAR TO BE IN LIMP HOME MODE

BACK UP CAMERA REPEATEDLY WORKS INTERMITTENTLY CAUSING ME TO BACK UP INTO A POST, COSTING $1200 IN DAMAGES ELECTRICAL WIRES GOING TO TRUNK LID ARE INCREDIBLY THIN AND FLIMSY. THIS EFFECTS THE BACK UP CAMERA, TRUNK RELEASE, TRUNK LIGHT, ETC.; ALL OF WHICH HAVE FAILED AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER. REPAIRED WIRING TWICE BUT THEY ARE SO FRAIL, THEY CONTINUE TO SNAP AND CAUSE MALFUNCTION THROUGHOUT THE CAR.

BRAKE LIGHT STOP PAD BROKE INTO MULTIPLE PIECES WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH TO MALFUNCTION. BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ON EVEN WHEN PEDAL IS NOT DEPRESSED, WHICH CAUSES VARIOUS PERFORMANCE ISSUES DUE TO THE ECU BELIEVING THE BRAKE PEDAL IS BEING DEPRESSED. BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ON WHEN CAR WAS TURNED OFF.

WHILE DRIVING UP A HILL AND ATTEMPTING TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE, I BRIEFLY LOST ACCELERATION. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW MINUTES LATER, AND REPEATED A COUPLE MORE TIMES. I HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE BEFORE AND THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS, OR ANY OTHER SIGNS OF MECHANICAL FAILURE. AFTER HAPPENING SEVERAL TIMES, LOSING ACCELERATION INTERMITTENTLY WITHOUT TAKING MY FOOT OFF THE GAS, A WARNING MESSAGE DISPLAYED "HILL ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE," AND THEN DISAPPEARED. NO OTHER WARNING MESSAGES OR DASH INDICATORS APPEARED, AND I COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING RELATING TO HILL ASSIST IN MY SETTINGS. AFTER PARKING AND SHUTTING OFF MY CAR, I NOTICED THE BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ON- I COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO TURN THEM OFF. I SEARCHED ALL OF THESE ISSUES AND FOUND A BLOG POST WRITTEN BY ANOTHER OWNER EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES. THE OTHER OWNER FOUND SMALL FRAGMENTS OF A BROKEN PLASTIC DISC ON THE FLOOR MAT, BELOW THE PETALS- I FOUND THE SAME THING IN MY CAR. I WENT TO A NEARBY AUTO ZONE FOR ASSISTANCE AND WAS ADVISED THE BROKEN PIECE WAS A "BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH PLUNGER." ONE OF THEIR ASSOCIATES QUICKLY INSTALLED A $3.00 REPLACEMENT FOR ME, WHICH SEEMED TO FIX ALL OF THE ISSUES. I HAVE NOT YET TAKEN MY CAR TO FORD, BUT PLAN TO DO SO ASAP. EACH TIME I LOST ACCELERATION I WAS TRAVELING UP A HILL, AND IT WAS ONLY TEMPORARY- WITH NO OTHER SYSTEMS APPEARING TO BE AFFECTED. *TR

THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH PLUNGER BROKE OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL CAUSING THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR POOR DESIGN SUBSTANDARD MATERIAL. *TR

TRUNK FAILS TO OPEN. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN OPERATING NORMALLY FOR ALMOST 5 YEARS, THEN SUDDENLY IS UNABLE TO OPEN. WHEN I USE MY FOB OR THE TRUCK RELEASE BUTTON, I HEAR THE ACTUATOR, BUT THE TRUNK DOES NOT UNLATCH.

HUNTINGTON BEACH FORD, CA FROM 2018-2020, HAS NOT FOUND A KNOCKING NOISE ETHER IN THE TRANSMISSION OR ENGINE V-6, 3.7L. THE DEALER GAVE ME FALSE INFORMATION ON THE ENGINE NOISE. THE NOISE WAS FOR THE MUSTANG V-8, 5.0L. SSM 47787. FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONS CENTER, BACK THAT UP DOESN'T APPLY. THEY SAID GO TO ANOTHER FORD DEALER. THEODORE ROBINS FORD, COSTA MESA ,CA. FOUND THE PROBLEM, VARIABLE CAM TIMING. NOW ROBINS FORD STATES NO WARRANTY. I HAVE PREMIUM CARE EXPIRES 2021. NOISE AT IDLE 900 RPM IN PARK. IN DRIVE UP TO 15 MPH.

BACK UP CAMERA NOT WORKING ON 2015 FORD MUSTANG V6. DID RESEARCH ON FORUMS AND IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. IT HAPPENS WHENEVER YOU PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE FROM BEING STATIONARY.

THE MUSTANG HAS THE ECOBOOST PERFORMANCE PACKAGE WITH 19" EBONY BLACK PAINTED WHEELS. THE CAR HAS ONLY 30,000 MILES ON IT DESPITE BEING 5 YEARS OLD THE LUG NUTS ON EACH WHEEL HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE NUTS WERE SWELLING AND A STANDARD SIZE WRENCH COULD NOT REMOVE THEM. THIS PROBLEM WAS DETECTED AT 25,000 MILES AND VERIFIED BY THE FORD DEALER RECENTLY. TODAY, THE FORD DEALER REPLACED THE LUG NUTS, WHICH COST $13.03 APIECE PLUS INSTALLATION AND TAX FOR A TOTAL OF $316.91. HOWEVER, THE REAL PROBLEM IS THE POTENTIAL THAT A WHEEL COULD NOT BE REMOVED IN CASE OF A FLAT TIRE OUT ON A HIGHWAY. IN ADDITION, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT LUG NUTS WHOSE THREADS WERE NOT STRIPPED NEED REPLACEMENT WHICH APPEARS TO BE AT 30,000 MILE INTERVALS. I HAVE CARS THAT HAVE OVER 100,000 MILES ON THEM AND NEVER HAVE LUG NUTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUE HERE BECAUSE BEING ABLE TO CHANGE A TIRE WHEN NECESSARY SHOULD NOT REQUIRE A MAJOR OPERATION.

THE BRAKE STOP PAD SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED ON MY '15 FORD MUSTANG V6 WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR LOST POWER: WOULD NOT EXCEED APPROX 1500 RPM, THROTTLE UNRESPONSIVE, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT (MIL). I WAS DRIVING ON A TWO WAY ROAD AND SUDDENLY LOST POWER AS I WAS APPROACHING THE 75MPH SECTION FROM 55MPH. THE TRACTOR TRAILER BEHIND ME COULD HAVE REAR ENDED ME IF THEY WEREN'T PAYING ATTENTION. FORTUNATELY, WHEN THE PAD BROKE, THE BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED DESPITE NOT DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. OTHER DRIVERS WERE AWARE THERE WAS A PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY BEFORE I TURNED ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS. WITH THE PAD BROKEN, THE TAIL LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF EVEN AFTER ENGINE SHUTDOWN AND THE BUTTON-START IGNITION BYPASSED THE NEED TO DEPRESS THE BRAKES TO START THE ENGINE. IT IS DANGEROUS TO BE ABLE TO START THE ENGINE WITHOUT NEEDING TO ENGAGE THE BRAKES. MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM BUT IT IS DIFFICULT TO TROUBLESHOOT SINCE THERE'S NO MIL OR DTC CODES. THIRD PARTY REPLACEMENT PAD COST $2, BUT FORD, APPARENTLY, ONLY SELLS THE WHOLE BRAKE ASSEMBLY FOR $200 AND COSTS UP TO $900 TO HAVE IT DONE. PEOPLE HAVE OPTED TO USE ZIP-TIES OR DISC MAGNETS INSTEAD. VEHICLES WITH THIS BRITTLE BRAKE PAD NEED TO HAVE THEM REPLACED ASAP. IT SEEMS '15 VEHICLES ARE FAILING AFTER 3-4 YEARS. THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND BYPASSING THE BUTTON-START IGNITION SAFETY FEATURES MAKES THIS A SERIOUS ISSUE. OWNERS WITH THIS ISSUE SEEM TO LIVE IN HOTTER REGIONS LIKE TEXAS OR FLORIDA.

LOCATION OF ELECTRIC POWER STEERING IS THE WORSE POSSIBLE PLACE. FAILURES ARE COMMON DUE TO WATER DAMAGE CAUSING POWER STEERING TO STOP WORKING AT ANY MOMENT. EVEN WHEN CAR IS MOVING WHICH COULD CAUSE ACCIDENTS OR DEATH.

THE A/C SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING. DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED AS EVAPORATOR CORE IS LEAKING, THATS WHY NO COLD AIR DUE TO FREON LEAKING. FORD IS NOT PAYING FOR THIS COMMON PROBLEM, FAULTY EVAPORATOR CORE MUSTANG 2015-2016.

HUNTINGTON BEACH FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT, ADVISOR STATED HE KNEW WHAT THE NOISE PROBLEM WAS WITH MY 2015 MUSTANG V-6, 3.7, ENGINE. I WAS PROVIDE A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN, SSM47787, TICK TAP AND OR TYPEWRITER NOISE AT IDLE. AFTER AN OIL CHANGE. THIS SSM DOESN'T ADDRESS THE 2015 MUSTANG V-6. AND THE KNOCKING IS ALL THE TIME WHEN THE ENGINE IS AT OPERATING TEMP. THIS MY THIRD TRIP TO THE DEALER. MILEAGE OVER 28,000. THE SSM DOESN'T ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSE. ENGINE AT IDLE TO 1700 RPM IN PARK / DRIVE. THIS LAST TIME THE OIL WAS CHANGE AND THE TIME BEFORE IT. IT WAS OVER FULLED WITH OIL BY AT LEASE A 1/2 QUART.

EVAPORATOR CORE LEAK; FREON IS OUT; IT'S TOO HOT IT WILL DEHYDRATE DRIVER AND PASSENGER

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY DURING A CRASH. DURING THE CRASH THE DRIVER SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE UPPER TORSO. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH DRIVER LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASHED INTO A CEMENT UTILITY POOL. DURING THE CRASH THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED BUT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE MESSAGE "AIR BAGS DEPLOYED" HAD DISPLAYED IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE UPPER TORSO AND WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL BY AMBULANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED AWAY AND DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS. NO POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED BY A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE SEAT BELT FAILED ALSO FAILED TO RETRACT AT THE TIME OF IMPACT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE REQUESTED THE INSURANCE COMPANY TO INVESTIGATE THE FAILURE OF THE AIR BAGS HOWEVER, THE ADVISED HER TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER AS THE AIR BAGS FAILURE WERE ALREADY UNDER INVESTIGATION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,000.

THE INCIDENT TOOK PLACE IN LAST SUMMER. MY BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH PAD BROKE INTO PIECES WHILE I WAS TRYING TO MERGE INTO A CITY HIGHWAY FROM A FREEWAY. SUDDENLY I COULD ONLY ACCELERATE FOR 2 SECONDS WHENEVER I STEP ON GAS, AND I ALSO NOTICED MY BRAKE LIGHT NEVER STOPS EVEN AFTER I TURNED MY CAR OFF. I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT AND GOT KILLED. THIS PROBLEM IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG NEW MUSTANG MODELS AFTER 2015. FORD IS NOT DOING ANYTHING, AND THEY WOULD CHARGE YOU $200 FOR THE WHOLE BRAKE ASSEMBLY WHILE I ONLY NEEDED A 50 CENTS PLASTIC PAD. MY DAD IS A CAR MECHANIC, AND HE WAS SURPRISED THAT A CAR IN 2015 WOULD HAVE A SUCH COMMON PROBLEM IN 90S.

CAR STARTED TO MAKE TICKING SOUND FROM UNDER CAR OIL PAN AFTER OIL CHANGE WORRIED ENGINE MIGHT BE BAD CAR ONLY HAS 24K MILES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED AN ABNORMAL BURNING ODOR WITHOUT WARNING. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE TEMPERATURE GAUGE WENT TO HOT AND CAUSED THE OVERHEATING WARNING INDICATOR TO ILLUMINATE. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER, SHIFTED INTO PARK, ADDED COOLANT, AND THE VEHICLE RETURNED TO NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AND DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE BLOCK WAS LEAKING AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

WATER HAS LEAKED INTO THE CABIN OF THE CAR FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW. THE LEAK APPEARS TO HAVE COME FROM THE CORNER OF THE WINDOW SEAL AND MADE IT'S WAY INTO THE CABIN AND CREATING A STAND POOL OF WATER. WATER POOLED ON THE REAR FLOOR AND MADE IT'S WAY UP TO THE FRONT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE VEHICLE SAT OVER THE WEEKEND FROM 11/26/2019 TO 11/31/2019. I WAS NOT WITH THE VEHICLE DURING THIS TIME. I LOCKED THE DOORS AND ROLLED UP THE WINDOWS KNOWING RAIN WAS IN THE FORECAST. THE VEHICLE SAT AT MY PLACE OF RESIDENCE DURING SAID WEEKEND.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE USED IN OCT 2018 AND WAS INFORMED IT HAD AN OPEN RECALL ITEM FOR 16S30-DOOR LATCH. ALLEGEDLY THE RECALL ITEM WAS CLOSED FOR MY VEHICLE IN MARCH 2018, HOWEVER FORD'S SYSTEM DID NOT REGISTER THE RECALL CLOSURE UNTIL JAN 2019. IN OCT 2019 MY PASSENGER DOOR BEGAN BECOMING UNLATCHED WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. THE DOOR BECAME UNLATCHED ON 5 SEPARATE OCCASIONS IN THE TIME FRAME BETWEEN 14 OCT 2019 TO 25 NOV 2019. THE FIRST FOUR INSTANCES I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH ON A HIGHWAY, AND THE LAST INSTANCE I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 40 MPH ON A COUNTY ROAD. IN ALL INSTANCES I COULD HEAR THE DOOR BECOME UNLATCHED, MY DASH INDICATOR INFORMED ME THE DOOR WAS AJAR, MY DOME LIGHT CAME ON AND MY WINDOW WOULD GO UP AND DOWN. IN ALL INSTANCES I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND ESSENTIALLY RE-LATCH THE DOOR. I HAD THE LATCH REPLACED ON 25 NOV 2019, WHICH I HAD TO PAY FOR DUE TO THE RECALL REPLACEMENT LATCH BEING OUT OF WARRANTY.

WIRING TO THE REAR DECK GETS PINCHED WHEN TRUNK OPENS/CLOSES. REAR CAMERA AND TRUNK RELEASE DO NOT WORK AND 'TRUNK AJAR' DASH NOTIFICATION WILL NOT TURN OFF. THIS IS A KNOWN DESIGN DEFECT BY FORD. I HAVE CREATED 2 SEPARATE CASES WITH FORD CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY REFUSE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR FULL REPAIRS.

PAINT BUBBLE ON HOOD, REPLACED 3 RIGHT WINDOW MOTORS, LOW PRESSURE FUEL SWITCH, LITTLE PLASTIC BUTTON ON BRAKE LEVER DETERIORATES CAUSE BRAKE LIGHTS TO STAY ON CAUSING CAR NOT TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY. CAR ONLY HAS 39000 MILES ON IT!! WINDOW MOTOR, PRESSURE SWITCH AND BRAKE LEVER COST $2000.00 TO REPAIR. REALLY UPSETTING SPEND OVER $30000.00 FOR A AUTOMOBILE THAN WITHIN 39000 MILES AND I NEED TO SPEND THIS KIND OF MONEY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT NOTICED FUEL LEAKING FROM THE FUEL TANK AND THE ENGINE BECAME INOPERABLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CHINO HILLS FORD (4480 CHINO HILLS PKWY, CHINO, CA 91710, (909) 203-5700) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE FUEL TANK. THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

ELECTRIC POWER STREERING WHEEL FAILURE UNDER COLD WEATHER CONDITION

2015 FORD MUSTANG ECOBOOST IS SUFFERING FROM A FUEL TANK LEAK. CEL TURNED ON WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY. THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF UNDERCARRIAGE DAMAGE, BUT THE EVAP ON TOP OF TANK HAS A HAIRLINE CRACK. THIS IS A FAULTY PART AS THERE HAS ALREADY BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS SAME ISSUE (NHTSA CAMPAIGN #: 15V339000), BUT NOT ALL 2015 FORD MUSTANG ECOBOOSTS ARE COVERED FROM PREVIOUS RECALL. THIS LEAK MAY CAUSE A POTENTIAL FIRE IF NOT TENDED TO.

I WAS LIKE I WAS DREAMING WHEN AFTER I WAS WOKE UP IN THE HOSPITAL AND THERE WAS A LOT OF TIME MISSING YOU KNOW I CAN REMEMBER AT THE EVERY LITTLE THING I WAS MISSING A LOT OF TIME BEFORE WE WENT OUT AND THE WRECK YOU KNOW RIGHT AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS OF BEING CONSCIOUS AND NEVER SHOULD HAVE WRECKED YOU KNOW AND IT JUST IT JUST LET NOTHING MAKING NO SENSE AND THEN IT ALL COME CLEAR I WAS KNOCKED OUT BEFORE THE WRECK AN EXAMPLE OF A HOW I DON'T KNOW WHY I DON'T KNOW ALL I KNOW IS I WAS KNOCKED OUT A COUPLE OF THOUSANDS OF A SECOND BEFORE THE RED CUZ I MISSED YOU TOO MUCH OF IT

I BOUGHT MY 2015 MUSTANG PREMIUM EDITION WITH 200 MILES ON IT IN 2016. DURING THE LAST FEW YEARS, THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS TIMES WHEN THE ENGINE HAS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING, AND STALLED TWICE WHILE WAITING AT A LIGHT. IT GOES INTO AUX MODE. BUT RESTARTS RIGHT AWAY I HAVE NOT HAD THE PROBLEM FOR QUITE SOME TIME BUT THIS PAST SATURDAY, IT SHUT DOWN AGAIN, WHILE TURNING AND THIS TIME A LIGHT CAME ON THAT SAID RUN POWER ACTIVE. THIS IS A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS CONDITION WHICH HAPPENS RANDOMLY, BUT USUALLY WHILE TURNING. FUEL LEVEL WAS 1/4 THIS PAST TIME. FORD MUST FIND THE CAUSE AND RECALL ASAP. IT HAS NEVER HAPPENED WHILE PARKED TO DATE. ONLY 6600 MILES ON THE CAR. SIMILAR REPORTS ARE POSTED ON THIS SITE.

MY WIFE NOTICE THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE STUCK ONE. TIRED SEVERAL DIFFERENT STEPS TO SEE IF THE PROBLEM COULD BE REMEDIED. SUCH AS STARTING THE CAR, LOCKING UNLOCKING, NOTHING SEEM TO CARE OF THE ISSUE. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE ON ONE OF THE MUSTANG FORUMS THERE WERE A FEW PEOPLE THAT HAD THE SAME ISSUE. IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS A LITTLE WHITE PLASTIC BUTTON ON THE BRAKE LEVER THAT DEPRESSES THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH. THIS SEEMS TO DRY AND CRACK AND FALL OFF THE PEDAL ASSEMBLY ,SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS. SO INSTEAD OF LETTING THE CAR SET ALL DAY AND DRAIN THE BATTERY I HAD MY WIFE DRIVE THE CAR HOME. ON THE WAY HOME SHE EXPERIENCED A RUNNING ISSUE THE CAR SEEM TO SHUTTER WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 30 TO 40 MILES AN HOUR. FORTUNATELY IT WAS ALL SIDE ROADS ON THE WAY HOME. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE IT COULD'VE BEEN A BIG PROBLEM. FROM WHAT I'VE READ APPARENTLY THE CAR GOES INTO LIMP MODE? SENSING THAT THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN APPLIED? FROM THE RESEARCH THAT I'VE BEEN ABLE TO LOOK INTO THE LITTLE PLASTIC BUTTON WHICH IS PROBABLY ABOUT TWO DOLLARS TO PRODUCE IS NOT AVAILABLE SEPARATE. THE ONLY WAY THAT THIS CAN BE REPLACED IS A BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY WHICH I READ IS APPROXIMATELY $300 PLUS LABOR. SOME PEOPLE ARE PURCHASING A RUBBER CLUTCH PEDAL BUMPER FROM TOYOTA AND PUTTING IN PLACE OF THE PLASTIC ONE FORD HAD. MY MAJOR ISSUE IS THAT IF SHE WAS ON THE INTERSTATE IN THE CAR SLOW DOWN TO 30 MILES AN HOUR WHO KNOWS WHAT COULD'VE HAPPENED. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THE CAR DOES NOT RUN PROPERLY WHEN THIS PART FAILS. I'VE BEEN TOLD THE REPLACE PEDAL ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN UPGRADED FROM THE ORIGINAL PART.

HAD A FLAT TIRE AND DID NOT HAVE A SPARE. SO, I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A SERVICE STATION TO HAVE THE TIRE REPAIRED. THEN I BOUGHT A FORD SPARE TIRE KIT FOR MY 2015 MUSTANG AND DISCOVERED THE LUG WRENCH DID NOT FIT THE LUGS ON THE CAR. THE DEALER STATED THE LUGS ON THE CAR HAD TO BE REPLACED AND I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST ($127.20). SINCE THIS IS A LATENT DEFECT, QUERY WHY FORD IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING THE LUGS.

BACK UP CAMERA WORKS AND THEN IT DOESN'T. I REFUSE TO GO TO DEALERSHIP JUST TO HAVE THEM SAY IT IS WORKING THEN TO LEAVE AND IT NOT WORKING AGAIN. I'VE READ FORUMS AND THREADS IT IS A VERY VERY COMMON. FORD NEEDS TO FIX THIS TOO MANY OWNERS HAVING SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN.

THE STOP PEDAL PAD BROK AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WERE ALWAYS ON. THE CAR STOPPED BRAKING AT ALL SUDDENLY! I DID NOT CRASH BECAUSE THE LOSS OF BRAKING HAPPENED WHILE PARKING IN A LOW TRANSIT STREET. FIRTS THERE WAS LOSS OF ACCELERATION RANDOMLY IN A HIGHWAY. I FOUND THE PIECES OF THE BRAKE PEDAL PAD IN THE CAR FLOOR. THIS IS A SEVERE RISK FACTOR FOR CRASH BECAUSE WHEN THE STOP PEDAL PAD BRAKES THE CAR WILL NOT BRAKE SUDDENLY.

I RECENTLY BOUGHT THE CAR TO A CLOSE FRIEND AND AS HE ALREADY STATES TO ME BEFORE TO BUY A CAR THERE IS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ACTIVE, I WENT TO A SHOP TO FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG AND THE CODE ALARM IS P0456, SMALL EVAPORATORS LEAK. AN SMOKE TEST WAS PERFORMED AND FOUND OUT THE GAS TANK HAS A BLUE FITTING ON TOP OF IT THAT IS LEAKING OUT ALL THE VAPORS. AFTER THE SURPRISING NEW ON A 2015 CAR I WENT BY MYSELF TO INSPECT THE FITTING AND FIND OUT THE HOSE CONNECTION IS GOOD BUT THE FITTING COMING OUT THE TANK HAS A CRACK ALLOWING VAPORS TO COME OUT THE TANK AND PRODUCING THE ALARM P0456. THE ALARM CAN BE RESET AND AFTER SOME DAYS COME BACK AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY, THE SPEED WOULD NOT EXCEED MORE THAN 40 MPH AND THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED AT ALL TIMES.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ALLAN VIGIL FORD OF FAYETTEVILLE (275 GLYNN ST N, FAYETTEVILLE, GA 30214, (770) 461-1151) SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER AND THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS WARMED UP RATHER THAN FROM A COLD START. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

MY CAR IS GARAGED YEAR ROUND TO INCLUDE 6 MONTHS TOTALLY GARAGED. IT HAS 28,800 MILES. WHILE GETTING OUT THE BEGINNING OF MAY 2019 FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE OCT, 2018. I NOTICED PAINT BUBBLING UP ON THE HOOD. THE CAR WAS 4 YEARS OLD IN APRIL, THIS WAS SPOTTED IN MAY. CALLED FORD CO. THEY SAID THEY HAD A 3 YEAR/36,000 MILE POLICY FOR THE PAINT. WITH FURTHER INVESTIGATION THRU A RELATIVE WHO WORKS FOR FORD DEALERSHIP IN MI. HE SAID FORD HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE PROBLEM FOR A FEW YEARS. HE SAID IT WAS EITHER INFERIOR MATERIAL, OR THE PREP WORK THAT CAUSED THE BUBBLING.HE ALSO SAID UP TO 2015 IT WAS 3YRS./36,000 MILES. AFTER 2015 THEY FIGURED OUT THE PROBLEM AND CHANGED THE POLICY TO 5YRS./UNLIMITED MILES. I TALKED TO A PERSON THAT HAD A 2016 MUSTANG GT, AND ASKED IF HAD PAINT ISSUES AND SAID YES ON THE HOOD. HE SHOWED ME, AND IT WAS IN THE EXACT SAME SPOT AS MINE!!! MINE WAS ESTIMATED AT $2577.73, SUPPOSEDLY FORD SAID THEY WOULD PAY $768.00, AND THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE HOOD!! SO, YES, THEY KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM!! I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO CAUSE THIS. IF I DID I WOULD TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT, BUT FORD SCREWED UP AND SHOULD FIX ALL OF IT AT THEIR EXPENSE. I HAVE PHOTOS OF MY CAR, AND THE 2016 THAT I TALKED WITH, BUT THEY ARE MY PHONE AND I CAN'T SEND THEM BECAUSE I'M ON MY LAPTOP, AND DON'T HAVE ON IT.

LOW REFRIGERANT IN 4-YEAR-OLD CAR. KNOWN EVAPORATOR ISSUE. ONLY TSB, NOT RECALL. OCCURS AT ALL TIMES (DURING IDLE AND DRIVING).

WHEN TRAVELING AT 65 MILES A HOUR THE AIRBAG LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS AND ABS LIGHT CAME ON THE VEHICLE ALSO LOST POWER STEERING. I WAS TOLD THAT BECAUSE THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT FUNCTION. DEALERS REPORT THAT REAR DRIVER HUB DRIVER SIDE CAUSED THE ISSUE. DEALER REFUSED TO COVER UNDER WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH AIRBAG SYSTEM WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MILES PER HOUR. I WENT TO ACCELERATE AND HEARD AND FELT A LOUD BOOM. THE CAR SHUTTERED AND SMOKE BEGAN TO POUR INTO THE CAR. I SLOWED DOWN AND PULLED OVER TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF THE FREEWAY. I CUT THE CAR OFF AND COULDN'T RESTART IT. THE BAY AREA FREEWAY SERVICE PATROL STOPPED TO TOW ME TO A SAFE AREA. THE TECHNICIAN SAID THERE WAS OIL ALL OVER THE ROAD AND BACK OF THE CAR. CAR WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP. THE INSPECTION FOUND A CRACKED ENGINE BLOCK. THE CAR HAS 74,000 MILES ON IT AND FORD IS UNWILLING TO HELP BECAUSE THERE WAS NO WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE.

WHILE BACKING UP FROM A PARKING SPACE THE STEERING BECAME DIFFICULT & KEPT TRYING TO BOUNCE BACK TO CENTER. IT WAS INTERMITTENTLY EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STEER. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THEY ALLEGEDLY CORRECTED THE ISSUE. THAT NIGHT MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND EXECUTED A RIGHT TURN AT SPEED. THE POWER STEERING FAILED AND THE STEERING WHEEL VIOLENTLY JERKED BACK TO CENTER. THE VEHICLE STRAIGHTENED OUT OF THE TURN INTO THE MEDIAN AND TOWARD ONCOMING TRAFFIC. WITH TERRIFIC STRENGTH AND EFFORT MY HUSBAND WAS ABLE TO FORCE THE VEHICLE BACK INTO THE LANE AND AVOID A COLLISION. THE DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER LET UP WITH WARNING MESSAGES AND THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. WITH TREMENDOUS EFFORT WE ABLE TO SAFELY GET THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP. SINCE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING, HIS STRENGTH WAS THE ONLY THING THAT PREVENTED IMPACTING VEHICLES IN THE ONCOMING LANE DURING THE TURN. I CAN ONLY GUESS THAT HAD I BEEN BEHIND THE WHEEL WHEN THE STEERING FAILED THE OUTCOME MAY HAVE BEEN TRAGIC. THE DEALERSHIP NOW SAYS THE STEERING RACK REQUIRES REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 44K MILES AND IS MY DAILY DRIVER.

TOOK MY FORD MUSTANG TO FORD AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE FUEL VAPOUR HOSE. ONCE JOB WAS COMPLETED I ASKED IF IT WAS COVERED SINCE I HAD DONE RESEARCH AND IT WAS A RECALL THIS MUSTANG HAD. THEY SAID NO, AND ENDED UP PAYING 350.84. IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN GET A REFUND?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BACK UP CAMERA FAILED TO DISPLAY. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN REVERSE, THE CAMERA DID NOT SHOW AN IMAGE AND THE SCREEN WAS BLANK. THE CONTACT'S SON ALSO REPORTED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD MOVE ON ITS OWN AND IT WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN. IN ADDITION, THE ABS AND POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MEDVED FORD (1404 S WILCOX ST, CASTLE ROCK, CO 80104, (303) 688-3137) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A NEW POWER STEERING SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE INSTALLED. THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.

AT 42000 MILES A/C STARTED BLOWING WARM AIR. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS INVOLVING THE SAME THING.

BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF AND STAYED ON STEADY SO PEOPLE BEHIND COULD NOT TELL WHETHER OR NOT I WAS BRAKING ....WHEN DRIVING CAR WOULD DROP SPEED FOR NO APPARENT REASON LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL OUT. I FOUND SMALL PLASTIC DEBRIE ON FLOOR MAT I GUESS IT WAS A WASHER TYPE THING FROM BRAKE SWITCH BRITTLE AND BROKEN IS PIECES? THIS ALL HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING.

BACKUP CAMERA MALFUNCTIONING, HAVE HAD SERVICED SEVERAL TIMES AND THE EXPENSE IS GETTING HIGHER AND STILL NO FIX. FORD KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX BUT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THESE CARS HAVE SOO MANY BLIND SPOTS YOU CAN'T SEE BACKING UP WITHOUT IT. IT SEEMS TO BE WORSE WHEN CAR HEATS UP, IT ROLLS OR GOES BLANK AND WON'T COME ON AT ALL MOST DAYS. IT STARTS INTERMITTENTLY SO WHEN YOU CARRY IT TO FORD THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG BUT THEN IT GOES BACK TO DOING AND YOUR A DANGER WHEN BACKING OUT ANYWHERE WHY IS NOBODY DOING ANYTHING?? I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN JUNE OF 2018 AND IT WAS MESSED UP EVEN THEN WHEN THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD IT. IT HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP 5 OR 6 TIMES IF NOT MORE. LCD SCREEN REPLACED WIRES CHECKED AND NOW I'M HAVING PAY 300$ TO REPLACE THE WIRING HARNESS AND NO GUARANTEE OF A FIX. I FEEL UNSAFE AND HAVE BACKED OUT IN FRONT OF MOVING VEHICLES AND THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF NOT FIXED. YOU CAN'T SEE IN THIS CAR WITHOUT IT!!CAN SOMEONE PLEASE DO SOMETHING THIS IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET AS A PROBLEM AND NO ONE HAS ANY ONE SURE SOLUTION BUT ITS DEFECTIVE AND COSTING A FORTUNE AND STILL NOT WORKING, WHILE FORD OVERLOOKS IT THAT'S SOO DANGEROUS!! YOU CANNOT SEE!!!

A PLASTIC PAD ATTACHED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL ARM THAT'S REQUIRED IN ORDER FOR THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH TO OPERATE CORRECTLY APPARENTLY DISINTEGRATED. AS A RESULT, THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON CONTINUOUSLY. I NOTICED IT WHEN ITHE CAR WAS PARKED AT HOME, BUT DO NOT KNOW WHEN IT HAPPENED.

YESTERDAY WHILE DRIVING ON A HOUSTON HIGHWAY AT 60+ MPH MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR UNLATCHED AND WARNING LIGHT AND SOUND CAME ON THAT MY DOOR WAS AJAR. THE DOOR OPENED ON IT'S ON I HAD TO PULL OVER AND CLOSE IT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED THIS MONTH. BOTH TIMES WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION. I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FROM FORD A FEW YEARS AGO FOR THIS ISSUE BUT I SEARCHED FOR RECALLS ON MY VIN AND MINE WAS NOT RECALLED.

WHEN DRIVING THE BRAKE STOPLIGHT SWITCH PAD THAT ATTACHES TO THE BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY FAILS DUE TO IT BEING BRITTLE PLASTIC. THIS CAUSES THE ON BOARD COMPUTERS TO BELIEVE THE BRAKES ARE BEING APPLIED AND DRASTICALLY SLOWING THE VEHICLE DOWN FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS TO LESS THAN 50MPH AND PREVENTING ACCELERATION. I WAS ACCELERATING TO INTERSTATE SPEEDS WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY FELT LIKE THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THIS REDUCED MY SPEED FROM 60 MPH TO 47-50MPH WITH TRAFFIC BEHIND ME. IT ALSO ILLUMINATED THE BRAKE LAMPS ON MY VEHICLE WHICH MADE IT APPEAR OTHER DRIVERS I WAS STOPPING ABRUPTLY. WHEN I CAME TO A STOP I COULD ACCELERATE UP TO 35-50MPH HOWEVER IT WAS INTERMITTENT ACCELERATION AS THE CAR WOULD LURCH FORWARD AND SLOW DOWN. MY BRAKE LIGHT WERE ON THE ENTIRE TIME CONFUSING OTHER DRIVERS. PIECES OF THE BROKEN BRAKE LIGHT STOP PAD WERE FOUND ON MY FLOORBOARD ONCE I WAS ABLE TO NAVIGATE THE VEHICLE HOME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 60-70 MPH, THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR BECAME AJAR. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER GULLO FORD OF CONROE (925 INTERSTATE 45 S, CONROE, TX 77301 (281) 367-0000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A FAULTY DRIVER'S DOOR LATCH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: CAS21669880. HOWEVER, NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS SIMILAR TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V643000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000.

AFTER RESEARCHING MANY FORUMS A LOT OF MUSTANG OWNERS, RANGING FROM 2010-2017, REPORT A PROBLEM WITH THEIR TRUNKS NOT OPENING DUE TO A WIRE THAT CORRODES AND DOESN'T ALLOW THE TRUNK TO OPEN. THAT SHOULD BE A PROBLEM THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS SELLING A FAULTY WIRE TO CONSUMERS. THIS COST IS $150, JUST TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE WHICH I BELIEVE IS UNFAIR. THE TRUNK WON'T OPEN UNLESS I GO INTO THE TRUNK FROM THE INSIDE OF IT AND UNLATCH IT THROUGH THE EMERGENCY EXIT. I HOPE THIS PROGRAM CAN DO ITS RESEARCH AND SEE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY MUSTANG OWNER THAT HAS THIS ISSUE. I HOPE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND HAVE FORD ABSORB THE COST AND FIX THIS ISSUE FOR OLDER AND NEWER MUSTANGS BY NOT SELLING FAULTY PARTS AND ACCESSORIES.

REPORTING A SYSTEMIC MANUFACTURED FIRE CONDITION.RIGHT SIDE EXHAUST [PASSENGER SIDE FRONT] BEHIND WHEEL WELL..EXHAUST IS TOO CLOSE TO THE WIRING A/C SCHRADER PORT CAUSING MELTING HEAT DAMAGE TO WIRING FENDER LINER AND PORT CAP.ON THIS VEHICLE THE FENDER LINER HAS A HOLE BURNT INTO IT AS WELL THE SCHRADER CAP IS MELTED.THIS IS A DOCUMENTED CONDITION ON THE INTERNET WITH ACTUAL FIRES ON FILM.AS WELL FORD SENT OUT A LETTER TO APPROX 1300 OWNERS ABOUT THIS EXACT PROBLEM IN AUSTRALIA [ SOURCE SUNSHINECOAST NEWS ARTICLE].NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN IN US. THIS CAME TO MY ATTENTION DURING A ROUTINE TIRE CHANGE ON 4-25-2019. THE VEHICLE IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION UPON REQUEST BY EITHER NTSB OR FORD REPS. THE RECOMMENDED REPAIR MIGHT BE SOME SORT OF HEAT SHIELD REFLECTOR OR OTHER IDEAS? IT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM I AM ADVISING OF FOR MAJOR SAFETY REASONS.THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT A REPAIR SHOP WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS NOTICED.

THE AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING. SAME PROBLEM IN 2016 TAHOE THAT GENERAL MOTORS ISSUED AN 17335 EXTENDED WARRANTY. SUPPOSEDLY NTSB MANDATED GENERAL MOTORS BECAUSE OF SYSTEMIC PROBLEM. FORD MUSTANGSS HAVE THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM BUT FORD REFUSES TO FIX. HOW DO WE GET FORD TO REPAIR LIKE GENERAL MOTORS HAS DONE? 35,890 MILES

STEERING WHEEL IS LOOSE. THE BOLT THAT HOLDS THE STEERING WHEEL ON IS LOOSE.

THE CAR INTERMITTENTLY WILL NOT START. THE DEALERS SAY THEY CAN'T FIX THE CAR WITHOUT A COMPUTER ERROR CODE WHICH THEY ARE NOT GETTING. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED WITH THE CAR ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. I HAVE CHECKED ON-LINE AND FIND THAT OTHER MUSTANG OWNERS ARE HAVING EXACTLY THE SAME EXPERIENCE AND THEIR CARS ARE NOT GETTING FIXED EITHER. I ALSO CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE DIRECTLY BUT HAVE HAD NO FEEDBACK FROM THEM. I AM OUT OF OPTIONS AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. FORD NEEDS TO PROVIDE A TIMELY FIX AND HONOR THEIR WARRANTY AGREEMENT TO KEEP THESE CARS ON THE ROAD. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY ELECTRIC/ELECTRONIC PROBLEM I HAVE HAD/DO HAVE WITH THE CAR

WHEEL LUGS DE-LAMINATE REQUIRING REPLACEMENTS TO BE PURCHASED. FACTORY PROVIDES LUG WRENCH WILL NOT FIT THE DE-LAMINATED LUGS MAKING A TIRE REMOVAL IMPOSSIBLE ON THE ROAD TO CHANGE A FLAT TIRE.

FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS. WHEN I GO TO WORK. EVERYTHING IS FINE. WHEN I LEAVE WORK. I BACK THE CAR UP ABOUT 15-30 FEET. THEN PULL OUT OF THE PARKING LOT. WHEN I PULL OUT. AS I PRESS THE GAS & START GOING FASTER. THE CAR STALLS, JERKS AS IF THE BREAKS ARE PUSHED, THEN STARTS DRIVING AS NORMAL AGAIN. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. BUT MY FORD PLACE SAYS IT HAS TO DO IT WITH THEM DRIVING FOR THEM TO KNOW WHAT TO DO OR WHAT THE ISSUE IS. THEN THIS PAST WEEK. THE SAME THING HAPPENED. BUT IT HAPPENED FOR A LONGER TIME AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT BRINKED THE WHOLE TIME I WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE. SO A FRIEND AT A FORD BODY SHOP TOLD ME IT WAS PROBABLY MY ABS SENSOR. ALSO THE HOOD OF MY CAR STARTED TO LOOSE PAINT FOR NO REASON. NO RUST. IT'S JUST FLAKING OFF. THE FLACKING STARTED NEAR THE HEADLIGHT UNDERNEATH THE TOP OF THE HOOD. & IS SLOWLY COMING TOWARDS THE TOP OF THE HOOD. MY 36,000 MILE WARRANTY JUST EXPIRED RIGHT AFTER I NOTICED THE ISSUE. AND THEY WOULDN'T COVER IT. I DON'T THINK THAT'S RIGHT!

PREMATURE INTERMEDIATE SHAFT FAILURE. RESULTED IN TRANSMISSION FAILURE. VEHICLE ONLY OPERATES IN 1, 2, 3 AND REVERSE. VEHICLE IN MOTION.

BACK UP CAMERA(A SAFETY DEVICE) NO LONGER FUNCTIONS WHEN CAR IS IN REVERSE. THE CAMERA STOPPED WORKING SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD HAD EXPIRED.

COOLANT LEAK

UNABLE TO OPEN TRUNK IN 2015 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE. THE KEY FOB, DASH RELEASE BUTTON AND OUTSIDE RELEASE BUTTON WILL NOT OPEN TRUNK. ALSO FOUND OUT BACK UP CAMERA IS OUT TOO. I JUST FOUND ON INTERNET TONITE , THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM DUE TO POOR DESIGN OF WIRE HARNESS IN TRUNK LID. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE YOU CANNOT GET IN TRUNK AND NO OPERABLE CAMERA . PLEASE SEE FOLLOWING: INOPERATIVE PARK AID CAMERA, LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT LAMP, DECKLID RELEASE AND/OR POOR SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION ' 2015-2017 FORD MUSTANG OEMDTC MAY 5, 2016 DIAGNOSTIC TIPS SSM 47306 ' 2015-2017 MUSTANG ' INOPERATIVE PARK AID CAMERA, LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT LAMP, DECKLID RELEASE AND/OR POOR SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION SOME 2015-2017 MUSTANG VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE AN INOPERATIVE REAR PARKING AID CAMERA, LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT LAMP, DECK LID RELEASE AND/OR POOR SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION.

I WAS IMPACTED BY A TRUCK FROM BACK. I'M THE DRIVER MY SEAT AND SEATBELT DIDNT WORK. I WAS PUSHED TOWARDS FRONT STEERING WHEEL AND SLAMMED TO THE BACK. MY BACK REST WAS IN MY BACK SEAT. MY SEAT BELT NEVER LOCKED. I COULDN'T REACH ANY PEDDLE AFTER IMPACT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS OPENED INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LAMARQUE FORD (LOCATED AT 3101 WILLIAMS BLVD, KENNER, LA 70065, (800) 639-3673) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V643000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES). THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

WE WERE STOPPED IN FAST LANE IN FREEWAY TRAFFIC, CAR IN CENTER LANE HIT BACK PASSENGER SIDE, PUSHING US INTO TAHOE IN FRONT OF US. DRIVER THAT HIT US WAS GOING 30-35 MPH ON IMPACT. ONLY THE DRIVERS LEG AIRBAG WENT OFF, PASSENGER AIRBAG POPPED COVER OFF ON RIGHT SIDE AND GOT STUCK SO DID NOT DEPLOY. DRIVERS FRONT STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. DRIVER INJURED WITH SEVERE BRUISING. BACK WINDSHIELD SHATTERED IN TINY PIECES ACROSS ENTIRE INSIDE OF CAR. I HAVE CONFIRMED THIS CAR DID NOT HAVE ANY AIRBAG RECALLS ASSOCIATED WITH IT.

2015 FORD MUSTANG GT PREMIUM PERFORMANCE PACK 31,000 MILES. TOOK A SHORT 20 MINUTE NON AGGRESSIVE DRIVE, STARTED HEARING A LOUD WHINING NOISE, WHICH SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. TOOK IT TO FORD FOR THEM TO TELL ME WHAT THE AC COMPRESSOR IS THE CAUSE OF THE WHINE AND NEEDS REPLACEMENT AS WELL AS THE AC EVAPORATOR. THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $3,300 FOR THIS REPLACEMENT. AFTER HOURS OF RESEARCH I FOUND NUMEROUS EXAMPLES OF PEOPLE IN THE SAME BOAT AS ME. HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR CARS BEING LESS THAN A YEAR OLD OR BELOW 10K MILAGE EVEN. THE AVERAGE MILEAGE THIS PROBLEM OCCURS WAS AT ROUGHLY 28,000 MILES. MOST WERE ABLE TO GET IT FIXED FREE OF CHARGE UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER THERE IS AN EXTREMELY LARGE PORTION OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE LITERALLY WITHIN A FEW WEEKS/MONTHS OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY AND FORD EXPECTING THEM TO PAY OVER $3,000 TO REPAIR. ALSO SAFETY CONCERNS IS THAT FREON COULD LEAK INTO CABIN PASSING OVER AC COILS. FORD RECOGNIZES THIS ISSUE WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE UNDER WARRANTY AND REPLACE THE BROKEN COMPRESSOR/EVAPORATOR WITH A NEWER DESIGN/IMPROVED VERSION THAT DOESN'T HAVE THESE 'FAULTS' WHICH ALSO COMES WITH NEW PART NUMBERS. SO THIS SHOWS THEY HAVE NOTICED A PROBLEM AND ADDRESSED IT. HOWEVER FOR PEOPLE WITHOUT WARRANTY OR JUST EXPIRED WARRANTY THEY ARE STATING THAT THERE HAS BEEN NO ISSUE RECOGNIZED OR RECALL FOR THESE PARTS THEREFORE IT IS ON THE CUSTOMER TO PAY TO REPLACE THE MANUFACTURE DEFECTED ITEM AT THEIR OWN COST. AFTER SPEAKING WITH FORD THEY SAID DUE TO IT NOT AFFECTING THE USERS SAFETY THEY ARE NOT RECALLING THE PARTS REGARDLESS EVERYONE IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ESCALATE THIS FURTHER AS FORD IS CURRENTLY WALKING OVER THEIR CUSTOMERS AND MAKING THEM PAY FOR THEIR DEFECTS THAT EVERYONE IS EXPERIENCING, IF THEY ARE OUT OF WARRANTY, REGARDLESS OF EXTREMELY LOW MILEAGE CARS.

WHEEL LUG NUTS ARE DEFECTIVE - HAVE SWOLLEN AND ARE STRIPPED - UNABLE TO USE TORQUE WRENCH TO TIGHTEN WHEELS PROPERLY. FORD DOES NOT WANT TO WARRANT LUG NUTS EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD, 29K MILES AND 100% MAINTAINED BY THE FORD DEALER

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT ON THE FREEWAY. A TRAILER TRUCK TURNED INTO MY DRIVER SIDE REAR WHEEL DESTROYING IT AND PUSHING ME TOWARDS THE FRONT OF HIS TRUCK. TO PREVENT ENDING UP IN FRONT OF THE TRUCK I TURNED THE WHEEL TO MY RIGHT CAUSING ME TO CRASH INTO A CONSTRUCTION BARRIER AT 30MPH. MY FRONT RIGHT TIRE TOOK ALL THE IMPACT CAUSING MY CAR TO GO UP ABOUT 3-4 FEET AND SLAMMING DOWN HARD. MY AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED.

AFTER DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MILES AT HIGHWAY SPEED, SEVERAL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATE, INCLUDING ADVANCETRAK UNAVAILABLE, THE ABS INDICATOR, TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR, AND AIR BAG INDICATOR. ALL OF THESE SYSTEMS BECOME UNAVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TEAM FORD LINCOLN (545 DREXLE RD, LAS VEGAS, NV) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL TANK WAS FAULTY DUE TO AN EVAPORATION LEAK AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V339000 (FUEL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000. *TT*JB

TAKATA RECALL WHEN I HAVE MY AIR CONDITIONING ON WETHER I'M MOVING OR STILL IT WILL PULSATE, IT WILL BLOW HARD THEN SOFT OVER AND OVER WITHOUT ME CHANGING THE SPEED OF THE AIR BOTH ON HEAT AND COLD. IT STARTED DOING IT AT ABOUT 15,000 MILES.

TODAY I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 FORD MUSTANG WHEN SUDDENLY THE CAR BEGAN TO LOSE SPEED. THE CAR WAS SLOWING DOWN AND WOULDN'T LET ME ACCELERATE. EVENTUALLY WHILE WANTING TO CHECK IF MY CAR WAS OKAY I TRIED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN INTO A PARKING LOT AND THE CAR ENGINE SHUT OFF BUT THE LIGHTS AND EVERYTHING WERE STILL ON. I HAD TO WAIT AWHILE AND EVENTUALLY I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON AND SAFELY MOVE INTO A WALMART PARKING LOT.

WITH LESS THAN 21,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AIR COOLING WAS LOST ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. A FORD DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO BE A LEAK IN THE EVAPORATOR REQIRING REPLACEMENT OF THE EVAPORATOR. THERE ARE OTHERS I HAVE NOTED ON LINE TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.

UNEXPECTED HIGH RPM ACCELERATION FROM REST. STARTED THE ENGINE AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN...RPMS JUMPED TO 4,000 AND VEHICLE ACCELERATED UNTIL BRAKES APPLIED AND ENGINE SHUT OFF. LUCKILY NO VEHICLES BEHIND ME. THE VEHICLE LEFT 20 FOOT LONG BURN MARKS IN THE PAVEMENT BEFORE I COULD REACT AND SLAM ON THE BRAKES AND SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE. OVER THE NEXT 15 MINUTES, I CAREFULLY STARTED THE ENGINE WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL...EACH TIME THE ENGINE STARTED NORMALLY AND WITHIN A FEW SECONDS THE ENGINE ACCELERATED TO 3000 TO 4000 RPMS WITHOUT ME EVER TOUCHING THE ACCELERATED (MY FOOT STAYED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL). EACH TIME I QUICKLY HIT THE STOP BUTTON. AFTER WAITING FOR SEVERAL HOURS FOR THE NON-APPEARANCE OF A TOW TRUCK...I CAREFULLY STARTED THE ENGINE AGAIN. BUT THIS TIME, IT RAN CORRECTLY. I CAREFULLY DROVE TO A NEARBY FORD DEALERSHIP, WHERE IT NOW SITS WAITING FOR A DIAGNOSIS. IF THERE HAD BEEN ANY OTHER VEHICLES BEHIND ME IN THE PARKING LOT...I WOULD HAVE IMPACTED ON OR MORE.

I DRIVING HOME ON MY STREET AND THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING LOCK UP AND PULL THE VEHICLE INTO HARD RIGHT MAKE ALMOST CAUSE ME TO HIT CAR. I MADE APPOINTMENTS WITH FORD FOR THE 9/18/2018 SPOKEN WITH SERVICE AND PARTS THERE BUT SAID DO KNOW ABOUT ANY RECALL YET. THIS IS JUST VERY DANGEROUS CAN CAUSE A ACCIDENT OR INJURIES TO OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD.

FRONT END

THE 2015 MUSTANG HAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH DOOR LATCHES -- THERE A MASSIVE RECALL NOTICE (16S30) HOWEVER DEALERS TOLD MY VIN NUMBER DOESN'T QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL -- YET MY DOOR LATCH IS BROKEN AND EXHIBITS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THOSE WHO DO QUALIFY. THE DOOR SWINGS OPEN UNEXPECTEDLY -- THIS HAS OCCURRED MANY TIMES AND IS QUITE DANGEROUS. FORD CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS BEEN NOTIFIED AND I'M TO OBTAIN A FORMAL QUOTE FOR THE REPAIR AND GET BACK TO THEM. ONE DEALER SAID $550 PARTS AND LABOR -- HOWEVER THE FORD SERVICE SITE SAY'S ITS 1.3 HOURS AND THE PART KIT IS APPROXIMATELY $70.00 I BELIEVE THERE HAS TO BE SOME LEGAL COURSE OF ACTION.

I HAVE A 2015 MUSTANG GT PREMIUM WITH A STANDARD TRANSMISSION AND WHEN EVER I'M AT A STOP AND PRESS ON CLUTCH TO PUT INTO 1ST. GEAR THERE IS A THUD SOUND LIKE THE CLUTCH ISN'T HOLDING. AND GOING INTO 2ND. GEAR THERE'S A GRINDING FEELING LIKE SYNCHROS ARE BROKEN.

THE A/C SYSTEM SHUT DOWN WHILE TRAVELING ON AN INTERSTATE AND ONLY BLEW HOT AIR. THE ENTIRE A/C SYSTEM AND ITS COMPONENTS HAD TO BE REPLACED AND THE VEHICLE WAS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD. A LEAK WAS FOUND UNDER THE VEHICLE AS IT WAS PARKED IN A DRIVEWAY. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, THE LEAK WAS TRACED BACK TO THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER. THE MASTER CYLINDER HAD TO BE REPLACED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS MALFUNCTIONED DUE TO MOISTURE BUILD UP. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THERE WAS REDUCED VISIBILITY. MIKE CASTRUCCI FORD (1020 OH-28 MILFORD, OHIO 45150) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS CONSIDERED NORMAL BY FORD. THE MANUFACTURER ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NORMAL AND THAT IT WOULD BE REPAIRED PER A "ONE-TIME GESTURE". THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 6,800.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO INDICATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS PRESENT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (MULLINAX FORD OF PALM BEACH, 1210 NORTHLAKE BLVD, LAKE PARK, FL) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 22,943.

THE DOOR OPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS MOVING, THE DOOR APPEARED TO BE CLOSED, THERE WAS NO ALERT THAT THERE WAS A DOOR OPENED, THE CAR FELT LIKE EVERYTHING WAS OK, BUT WHEN I SAW THE ALERT ON THE DASHBOARD THAT A DOOR WAS OPENED, AND I INMEDIATLY COULD FEEL THE SOUND OF THE WIND COMING INSIDE THE CAR, I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALER THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING AND TOLD ME TO JUST GO HOME, THEN AFTER A MONTH AND A HALF, THE DOOR OPENED AGAIN, I HEARD THE WINDOW COMING DOWN AS IT IS A CONVERTIBLE THE WINDOW GOES A LITTLE DOWN SO THE DOOR CAN OPEN, THEN I SAW THE ALERT ON THE DASHBOARD THAT A DOOR WAS OPENED, I HAD TO STOP AND CLOSE THE DOOR, IN NEITHER OF THESE TWO OCASSIONS THE DOOR OPENED FULLY, IT WAS OPENED A BIT, LIKE WHEN IT'S NOT 100% LOCKED. THE FIRST TIME I WAS GOING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 80 MPH APROX. THE SECOND TIME I WAS IN A CITY STREET GOING AT 40 MPH APROX. BOTH TIMES OT WAS THE PASSENGER DOOR.

2015 MUSTANG V-6, 6-SPEED SELECT AUTO, WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR WHEN GAS PEDAL IS DOWN TO FLOOR ON THE FREEWAY AND ENGINE WILL SHUTS OFF.

I HAVE A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. VEHICLE WAS PARKED WITH THE EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE FULLY ENGAGED. VEHICLE ROLLED DOWNHILL AND CRASHED INTO A FENCE. CONTACTED DEALER AND THEY SAID VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED BY ANY RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2015 MUSTANG GT, THE DRIVER SIDE REAR STRUT EXPERIENCED A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE WHICH RESULTED IN THE STRUT BLOWING THROUGH THE MOUNT TO THE BODY AND NEARLY PENETRATING THE BODY OF MY VEHICLE. THIS CAUSED A SUDDEN LOSS OF CONTROL WITH THE VEHICLE AND REMAINS A HIGH CONCERN IF IT IS TO HAPPEN AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO ADVISE WHY THIS HAPPENED BUT ALL SERVICE PERSONNEL NOTED THAT THIS WAS A SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN ON ANY VEHICLE, LET ALONE ONE THAT IS TWO YEARS OLD. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE ATTACHED IMAGES, THE STRUT ITSELF PENETRATED THE FUEL FILLER LINE AND UNDER FULL SUSPENSION COMPRESSION THE STRUT ITSELF WAS NEARLY PENETRATING THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE AS NOTED ABOVE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONER WAS ACTIVATED, A FOREIGN OBJECT PROJECTED OUT OF THE VENT. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE EYES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED BY THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 51,000.

MY 2015 MUSTANG WAS TOTALED ON MARCH 11 2018 AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS CAME OUT AND ON INSPECTION THE STATE TROOPER SAID MY SEAT BEAT MISFIRED . WHEN I CONTACTED THE FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER THE GUY HAD THE NERVE TO ASK ME WHAT DID I WANT HIM TO DO ABOUT IT!!!! I NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL AT ALL FROM ANYONE!!!! I THEN ASK HIM TO HAVE SOMEONE CALL ME I HAVE AS TO YET NOT RECEIVED ONE PHONE CALL... THIS IS JUST NOT THE KIND OF RESPONSE THAT WILL CONTINUE TO SELL FORD MUSTANG IF I CAN'T BE SAFE OR MY FAMILY BE SAFE WHAT WOULD MAKE ME WANT TO OWN ANOTHER ONE OR EVEN TELL EVERYONE MY EXPERIENCE WITH MUSTANG AND I HAVE OWNED MANY OF THEM I LOVED MUSTANGS BUT THIS REALLY CHANGES MY VIEW OF FORD AND MUSTANGS!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE HYDROPLANED AND CRASHED INTO A MILE MARKER SIGN. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY AND THE SEAT BELT FAILED TO RESTRAIN THE DRIVER CORRECTLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK AND BACK INJURIES, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A SALVAGE YARD AND DEEMED DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

CAR SMOKING AT IDLING AND DRIVING WHITE SMOKE. KNOWN ISSUE OR RECALL AND MY CAR IS EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE BUT IS NOT SHOWING UP FOR MY VIN. SMOKING SO MUCH IT IS GETTING INSIDE MY CABIN MAKING IT HARD TO BREATH.

THE PURGE CONTROL VALVE POSSIBLY ALSO DESCRIBED AS A PURGE CANISTER VALVE IS DEFECTIVE AND IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR REPLACEMENT PURCHAS THROUGH MANY AUTO PART STORES. THIS PRODUCT CAUSES EXCESSIVE RAW FUEL TO ENTER INTO THE ENGINE CAUSING MAJOR ENGINE DAMAGE ALONG WITH HARMFUL EMISSION FUMES INTO THE ENVIRONMENT. WHILE IN IDLE THE CAR TENDS TO SHUT OFF OR DROP BELOW STANDARD IDLE RPM. THERE IS ALSO LOSS OF POWER DUE TO THIS DEFECT PART. FORD DOES NOT COVER THIS PART SERVICE UNDER THEIR WARRENTY AND CONSUMER IS FORCED TO PAY AN EXPENSIVE SERVICE TO GET PROBLEM RESOLVE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE THE ONLY ONE WITH ACCESS TO THIS PART. THIS SHOULD BE A CONCERN AND UNDER THE EMISSIONS LAW AND BE COVERED UNDER WARRENTY THROUGH THE MANUFACTURE. ON A SIDE NOTE, THE EMMISIONS CONTROL MODULE IS ALSO EFFECTED AND CONSUMER IS FORCED TO PAY AN ADDITION COST FOR THIS REPAIR AS WELL. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH MAJORITY OF THE NEW MUSTANGS YEAR RANGING FOR 2015-2017.

BOUGHT A 2015 MUSTANG GT FEB 28 AT 9PM WITH 19200 MILES ON IT. MARCH 1 I NOTICED THE CAR HAD 3 DIFFERENT TIRES BRANDS ON IT. THE CAR PULLS BAD TO THE LEFT UNDER ACCELERATION, WHEN YOU LET OFF THE GAS IT PULLS RIGHT. LAUREL FORD DID A 4 WHEEL ALIGNMENT ON THE CAR AND IT STILL PULLS. NOW THEY SAY IT IS THE STRUTS AND THE ORDED 2 NEW ONES FOR THE FROUNT. I THINK IT IS THE TIRES NOT THE STRUTS BUT THEY WON'T REPLACE THE TIRES BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAFT TO PAY FOR THEM. THEY ONLY WANT TO REPLACE PARTS THAT WARRANTY WILL PAY FOR. THEY SAID NO WAY THEY WOULD PAY FOR 4 NEW TIRES. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE ⚠️ VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING THE CAR BECAUSE IT IS A MANUEL TRANSMISAION AND EVERY TIME YOU ACCELERATE THE CAR PULLS LEFT HOLDING THE WHEEL STRAIGHT DOES NOT STOP IT, IT STILL PULLS LEFT, THEN RIGHT WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE GAS. WHAT FORD DEALER WOULD SELL A CAR WITH 19,200 MILES ON IT WITH 3 MIS MACHED TIRES ON IT. ALSO THE TIRES HAVE DIFFERENT LOAD AND SPEED RATEINGS ON EACH ONE, LIKE 101Y, AND 105Y, AND 100 Y. I DONT KNOW WATS WRONG, I THINK LAUREL FORD IS STALLING, WHY???? I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 15 DAYS NOW STILL NOT FIXED. I GUESS SOME ONE WILL LOOK INTO THIS AFTER SOME BODYS GETS KILLED LIKE ME AND WHAT EVER CAR I HIT HEAD ON AT 70 MPH.

SEAT BELT TENSIONER: SEAT BELT TENSION IS NOT RETAINING TENSION. HAVE SPOKEN WITH DEALER AND SHOWED THEM THE PROBLEM AND THEY AGREED WITH MY ASSESSMENT AND HAVE ORDERED A NEW PRE-TENSIONER FOR ME. THEY ALSO NOTED UNNECESSARY SLOWNESS IN THE RETRACTION OF THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT TENSIONER AND WILL ORDER ONE FOR ME IF I ASK FOR IT (WHICH I WILL). I AM ASKING THE NHTSA TO CONTACT FORD ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS OTHER MAKES AND MODELS COULD ALSO BE AFFECTED.

CAR WOULD IDLE THEN CUT OFF DURING STATIONARY, ENGINE WOULD CUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY OR CITY STREET TURNING AND NOT TURNING. CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OR MOVE WHEN PRESSING GAS. HEATED SEAT CAUGHT ON FIRE. STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS STOPPED WORKING. NEW BATTERY WOULD DIE THEN BE FINE, CAR HAVE PROBLEMS AFTER FILLING WITH GAS WOULD NOT START, BLACK AND WHITE SMOKE CAME OUT OF THE EXAUST AND DISPLAYED LOW FUEL WHEN IT HAD A FULL TANK. CAR RESTRICTED ME FROM DRIVING PAST 80. POWER TRAIN ISSUES , AUXILIARY EMISSION CONTROL FAILED, COMPUTER OUTPUT CIRCUIT FAILED.

CLEAR COAT ON WHEELS IS DISCOLORINGMAND SPIDER CRANKING FROM UNDERNEATH CLEAR COAT.

PLEASE SEE DOCUMENTS ATTACHED.

THE EVAPORATOR IS BROKEN AND LEAKING CAUSING A FOUL ODOR IN MY CAR. I'VE LOOKED ONLINE AND NOTICED THAT ALOT OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. I WENT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO GET IT FIXED, AND I WAS QUOTED $2459.64. IF THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR PEOPLE, IT SHOULD BE PUT OUT AS A RECALL INSTEAD OF HAVING PEOPLE PAY $2500 FOR DEFECTIVE PARTS.

THE OE TIRES ARE BAD AND HAVE BEEN REPLACED 3 OUT 4 OF THE TIRES AND ONE TIRE AN EXTRA TIME BECAUSE IT TOO WAS NOT ABLE TO BE BALANCED CORRECTLY . WHEN I DRIVE , I COMPLAIN OF A OUT OF ALIGNMENT FEELING ALL THE TIME AND OUR SOUND THAT TIRES MAKE (?).

WHEN THE CAR IS STILL SILENT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES IT RUN OUT OF BREAKS AND THE SOUND WHEN BRAKING IS DRY AND IT SEEM TO SHAVE. THE RECOMMENDATION ON THE FORD DEALER WAS NOT MUCH USE OF THE BREAKS, IN MY IMPRESSION THIS IS WAS COMPLETELY IRRESPONSIBLE

I WAS IN A PARKING GARAGE EASING DOWN A RAMP AT 5 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN FORCING THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL OVER A SIXTEEN-INCH BARRICADE CAUSING THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE TO RISE SO FORCEFULLY THAT IT NEARLY FLIPPED UPSIDE DOWN. THE VEHICLE ROTATED 180 DEGREES AND LANDED ON THE PAVEMENT WITH SUCH FORCE THAT THE RACK AND PINION STEERING MECHANISM BROKE. MY EYEGLASSES FLEW OFF MY FACE AND LANDED SEVERAL FEET AWAY.

RECEIVED LETTER FORM FORD INDICATING THAT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE. UPON CALLING THE DEALER THAT DID THE FIRST SERVICE, WAS INFORMED THAT T HEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PARTS. THEY WERE ALSO VERY NASTY ABOUT THE REQUEST. I CALLED THE DEALER FROM WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND WAS INFORMED THAT I COULD ONLY BRING THE CAR IN FOR THIS ON A WEEKDAY, REQUIRING THAT I TAKE A DAY OFF FROM WORK. ALSO VERY NASTY ABOUT THE REQUEST. THE RECALL IS NHTSA 16V-643.

WHITE SMOKE IN THE MORNING. VIBRATION, ENGINE POWER LOSS, THE HEAD FOR CYLINDER 1 IS WARP AND LEAKING COOLANT INTO CYLINDER 1 CAUSING THE WHITE SMOKE. SEVERAL OTHERS HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM S VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR AND A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2014 AND 2015. ITS STARTS WITH MISFIRE ERROR CODES AND ADVANCES TO THIS.

UNDERCARRIAGE OF VEHICLE GETTING VERY HOT. YOU CAN FEEL HEAT COMING UP OFF THE FLOOR BOARDS IN THE VEHICLE. IF YOU PLACE A PURSE ON THE FLOOR GETS HOT ON THE BOTTOM OF PURSE CAN FEEL HEAT ON YOUR FEET ALSO BOTTOM OF SHOES GET HOT. EVERY SINCE I BOUGHT THE CARE. I TOLD FORD ABOUT IT AND THE DEALER SHIP AND GOT THE RESPONSE THAT MY VEHICLE AND WAS NOT ONE OF THE ONES LISTED IN THE VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. HOWEVER SINCE I NOTICED THE PROBLEM AND IT CAUSED ME TO LOOK IT UP AND I FOUND THE FOLLOWING: THERE HAS BEEN A VOLUNTARY RECALL ONLY TO PLACE NEW FUEL TANK SHIELD , NEW THERMAL WRAPPING IN THE FUEL VAPOR LINES AND NEW THERMAL WRAPPING ON THE PARKING BRAKE CABLE. THE DEALERSHIP RESPONSE WAS STILL THE SAME. I FEEL AS A CUSTOMER I SHOULD BE RIGHT AND THEY SHOULD TO THE RECALL REPLACEMENTS. IF I DID NOT FEEL THE HEAT COMING OFF OF THE FLOOR BOARDS I WOULD NOT HAVE KNOWN THERE WAS A VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR IT IN THE FIRST PLACE. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

2015 FORD MUSTANG GT PREMIUM WITH PERFORMANCE PACK AND ALL OPTIONS. THE CAR HAS 28000 MILES AND I PURCHASED IT APRIL 15, 2015. AT THAT TIME IT HAD A LITTLE OVER 26000 MILES. THE FOLLOWING IS WHAT'S HAPPENING. MAY 4, 2017 I HEARD A POPPING NOISE COMING FROM THE CLUTCH PEDAL WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. IT DID IT DURING THE DAY SO I PULLED THE VEHICLE INTO MY SHOP TO LOOK AT THE CLUTCH PEDAL TO SEE WHERE THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM. THE LINK FROM THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER TO THE PEDAL WAS LOSE AND MAKING A POPPING NOISE. I RE SECURED THE LINK BY PRESSING THE ROD BACK ONTO THE PEDAL. SATURDAY MAY 6, 2017 AT 11:12 AM THE NOISE CAME BACK AND WHILE DRIVING I PUSHED THE PEDAL FAST FOUR TIMES AND THE LINK CAME LOSE WHILE DRIVING. I COASTED TO A STOP AND LOOK AT THE PEDAL AGAIN AND SAW THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER PUSH ROD CAME COMPLETELY OFF. I RECONNECTED IT AND BEFORE I CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR CONTACTED COURTESY FORD IN CONYERS, GA AND SET UP AN APPOINTMENT MONDAY MAY 8, 2017 AT 7 AM. ALSO DOING THIS TIME THE VEHICLE CUT OFF SEVERAL TIMES. IT HAPPENS WHEN I'M SITTING AT A LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE IS IDLING, COASTING IN NEUTRAL, COMING TO A STOP, TURNING. THE VEHICLE HAS CUT OFF AT LEAST 11 TIMES AND I HAVE DOCUMENTED IT. ALSO I RECORDED TWO VIDEOS WITH MY PHONE. AFTER THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL, I DECIDED TO PARK THE VEHICLE FOR THE WEEK END AND PLAN TO TAKE IT TO THE FORD DEALER FOR THESE AND OTHER PROBLEMS.

I HAVE A 17 MUSTANG GT WITH MANUAL WITHIN THE FIRST 1000 MILES THE ENGINE HAS AUTOMATICALLY TURNED IT SELF OFF AFTER GETTING ON A INTERSTATE OR ANY TIME EXTRA POWER IS NEEDED. I WOULD WANT TO STOP SPEEDING UP I WOULD PUSH THE CLUTCH IN AND PUT IT IN 6TH AND WAIT FOR MY MPH DROP TO DESIRE SPEED, DURING THIS TIME IS WHEN THE ENGINE TURNS OFF. I HAVE WENT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP IN RICHMOND, VA AND THEY BASICALLY SAID THEY CAN'T FIND ANY ISSUES BECAUSE THEIR ARE NO CODES (THE CAR DIDN'T LEAVE THE PROPERTY). SO THIS ISSUE IS A HARD TO FIND A FIX AND MOST LIKELY WON'T GET FIXED TILL PEOPLE START GETTING IN ACCIDENTS OR DEATH BY ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THE UNPREDICTABLE ENGINE SHUT OFF.

"TAKATA RECALL" DRIVER TRUNK LINER BRITTLE TO RECALL RECALL #15S19 UNDERBODY TEMPERATURES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. AFTER WASHING AND DRYING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT OPENED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WHEN SUDDENLY THE EXTERIOR DRIVER'S SIDE REARVIEW MIRROR COVER DETACHED WITH A LOUD BANG. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE CONTACT SENT PHOTOS OF THE DAMAGE TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER DENIED RESPONSIBILITY. THE CONTACT FILED A CASE WITH THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,300.

ENGINE STALLS DURING IDLE AT STOP SIGNS AND STOP LIGHTS AND ALSO STALLS DURING INITIAL ACCELERATION UNDER 10 MPH. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 25 TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR. THERE ARE NO FAULT INDICATIONS ON THE DASH. I PLACE SIFTER BACK IN "PARK" AND ENGINE RESTARTS UNTIL THE NEXT TIME IT STALLS. THERE IS NO PRIOR INDICATION OF ANY KIND THAT THE ENGINE IS ABOUT TO STALL. THE ENGINE SIMPLY SHUTS OFF. HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE TWICE. THEY CANNOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE SO MAKE NO ATTEMPT TO DO ANY COMPONENT REPLACEMENTS. I CONTACTED FORD MOTOR CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND THEY STARTED A CASE FILE ON THIS, CAS-12064085. I HAVE EXPRESSED MY CONCERN OVER AND OVER AGAIN THAT MY CAR MAY STALL AT THE WRONG PLACE AT THE WRONG TIME AND POSSIBLY CAUSE A COLLISION. BOTH THE DEALER AND FORD MOTOR COMPANY SEEMED "TOTALLY" DISINTERESTED. ALL THEY SAY IS "SORRY WE CANNOT HELP YOU".

NHTSA RECALL NUMBER:16V643 RECALL DATE: SEPTEMBER 2, 2016 MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER: 16S30 IT HAS BEEN OVER 6 MONTHS SINCE THIS RECALL WAS PUT IN PLACE AND THERE STILL HASN'T BEEN A REMEDY FOR THIS FAULTY DOOR LATCH. IS SOMEONE GOING TO HAVE TO FALL OUT OF A MOVING CAR AND DIE BEFORE THEY FIX IT?

THE BREAK PEDAL IS TOO CLOSE TO THE ACCELARATOR AND IF YOU PRESS DOWN FAR ENOUGH OF THE BRAKE, YOUR FOOT MAY ALSO TOUCH THE ACCELERATOR, THUS CAUSING THE CAR TO ACCELERATE WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AS WELL AS THE DISTRICT OFFICE, BUT THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. FINALLY, THEY HAD SOMEONE RIDE WITH ME AND THEY NOTICED THAT AT A CERTAIN POINT, MY FOOT WAS COMING IN CONTACT WITH THE ACCERARATOR BY MAYBE 1/8". THE DEALER SAID THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT FIXING IT BECAUSE THERE HAD BEEN NO RECALL ISSUED. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHERE I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS, EVEN AFTER I BECAME AWARE OF THE ISSUE. I CAN'T BELEIEV THAT I AM THE ONLY ONE IN THE COUNTRY WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM, AND MY FEET ARE NOT THAT BIG. I BELIEVE BY MOVING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE LEFT ABOUT 1/4" WILL RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THE DEALER SAID THEY WOULD DO IT WHEN/IF A RECALL WAS ISSUED. AS STATED BEFORE, THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED BEYOND A CERTAIN POINT, WHICH IS USUALLY WHEN HARD BRAKING, OR A QUICK SLOWDOWN IS REQUIRED AND THERE IS NO TIME TO THINK ABOUT WHERE YOUR FOOT IS IN RELATION TO THE ACCELERATOR.

CAR ENGINE SHUT OFF COMPLETELY WHILE DISENGAGING THE CLUTCH COMING TO A STOP ON BUSY ROADS WITH MY CHILD IN THE CAR.

RODENTS HAVE BEEN CHEWING ON THE WIRING UNDER THE HOOD. I FEEL THIS IS DUE TO THE SOYBASED WIRING COATING THAT IS BEING USED ON NEWER VEHICLES. 1ST INCIDENT. THE AC WIRING WAS EFFECTED. 2ND INCIDENT 2 WEEKS LATER ENGINE WIRES WERE CHEWED UP. THIS SEEMS VERY SIMILAR TO THE CURRENT HONDA RODENT ISSUES THAT A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IS CURRENTLY FILED FOR. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED UNDER MY CARPORT OVER NIGHT. IT IS A DAILY DRIVER USED EVERYDAY.

I CALLED FORD POMPANO WHERE I GOT BOUGHT THE CAR AND THE SERVICE PERSON SAID HE WAS FAMILIAR WITH MY PROBLEM AS MANY OTHER MODEL 2015 FORD MUSTANG HAD THE SAME PROBLEM - NO AC

FORD MUSTANG 2015 IS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE A TRUNK THAT DOES NOT PROTECT INSIDE BECAUSE NO EDGE TO EDGE SUPPORT. MY TRUNK EDGE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OR WHEN FACING THE TRUNK (LEFT SIDE) IS SO MALALIGNED AS TO MAKE ME THINK EITHER THE CAR IS TWERKED OR THE FRAME IS....THIS CREATES UNSTABLE DRIVING CONDITIONS.FORD REPLACED MY ORIGINAL TRUNK WITH THERE VERSION OF A FITTED TRUNK.

2015 MUSTANG 2.3 L ECOBOOST, WHEN AT IDEAL FOR MORE THEN 5 - 10 MIN. IT STARTS SMOKING WHITE SMOKE FROM THE TAIL PIPES, THE LONGER IT SITS THE HEAVIER THE SMOKE GETS.

READ ABOUT RECALL OF SIDE DOORS OPENING WHILE DRIVING IN NEWSPAPER 2 MOS AGO AND CALLED FORD. WAS LIED TO AND TOLD MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ONE OF THE ONES BEING RECALLED. TODAY GOT A RECALL NOTICE FROM FORD IN THE MAIL. WHY WASN'T I TOLD ABOUT THIS WHEN I CALLED THEM? FORD HAS FAILED TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE IN A TIMELY MANNER. ("FORD PROVIDED THE GENERAL REIMBURSEMENT PLAN FOR THE COST OF REMEDIES PAID FOR BY VEHICLE OWNERS PRIOR TO NOTIFICATION OF A SAFETY RECALL TO THE AGENCY IN "FEBRUARY 2015". THE ENDING DATE FOR REIMBURSEMENT ELIGIBILITY IS OCTOBER 31, 2016.) SO, THEY WAITED 1 1/2 YEARS KNOWING THE PROBLEM BUT IS GIVING PEOPLE ONLY 3 WEEKS FOR REIMBURSEMENT--NOT ACCEPTABLE. THEN, THE PART WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2017!! (CERTAINLY NOT A TIMELY REMEDY) SO I HAVE TO DRIVE AROUND FOR AT LEAST 9 MONTHS WILL A POTENTIALLY FATAL SAFETY ISSUE. I HAD INITIALLY CALLED FORD BECAUSE I WAS CONTEMPLATING A LONG CAR TRIP, WHICH IS MOSTLY ON HIGHWAYS. A DOOR OPENING ON ITS OWN WHEN ONE IS DRIVING AT 60-70 MPH IS NOT AN OPTION. HAVE HAD TO CANCEL THE TRIP AS FORD WILL NOT GIVE ME A LOANER FOR 9 MONTHS! P.S. THE LETTER INCLUDED A REFERENCE TO GO TO WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV REFERENCE NHTSA SAFETY RECALL 16V-643. I TRIED IT AND YOUR SITE STATED "SORRY, NO RESULTS FOUND FOR NHTSA SAFETY RECALL 16V-643." SOMETHING IS OBVIOUSLY NOT WORKING AT YOUR END.

16S30 RECALL - MY DOOR LATCH CLOSED WHILE THE DOOR WAS OPEN WHICH PREVENTED ME FROM CLOSING THE DOOR. AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR OF MESSING WITH THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH I CALLED A FRIEND TO BRING TOOLS TO HELP. WITH TOOLS I WAS ABLE TO FORCE THE LATCH BACK OPEN SO I COULD DRIVE THE CAR HOME. I HAVE NOT OPENED THE DOOR SINCE BECAUSE I WAS MADE AWARE OF THE RECALL AND THE FACT THAT FORD MO CO HAS NOT PROVIDED A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM! I CANNOT EVEN TRADE IN THE CAR DUE TO THE SAFETY RECALL AND THE VALUE OF MY CAR HAS DECREASED BY $2000.00. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW A MOTOR COMPANY CAN NOT BE LIABLE FOR A SAFETY ISSUE OF SUCH A SERIOUS NATURE AND NOT BE FORCED TO RECALL THE VEHICLES FOR REPAIR OR A BUY BACK. NOW THE AVERAGE AMERICAN CONSUMER IS STUCK WITH THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE REGULATING AGENCIES ARE EITHER WORKING WITH FORD OR OTHERWISE SHOWING LENIENCY IN THIS MATTER RATHER THAN REQUIRING OR MANDATING A SOLUTION BE PROVIDED IMMEDIATELY...

THE RUBBER LIP LOCATED UNDER THE CAR ON THE SPLASH SHIELD CAME UP FLYING LAST NIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 287 TO WICHITA FALLS. COMPLETELY UNANNOUNCED, ON A EMPTY ROAD, WITH NO HAZZARDS.

AIR CONDITIONER POTENTIALLY LEAKING FREON INTO PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. WHILE DRIVING AROUND NOTICED LITE FOG/SMOKE COMING THROUGH AIR VENTS INTO PASSENGER COMPARTMENT (NOT OBSERVED THIS BEFORE AND WINDOWS WERE CLOSED). 20 MINUTES LATER AIR CONDITIONER STARTED BLOWING WARM AIR. LATER THAT WEEK FOUND OUT AIR CONDITIONER EVAPORATOR COIL HAD LEAKED RENDERING THE AIR CONDITIONING UNUSABLE. MILEAGE AT TIME OF OCCURANCE ~12,255 MILES. ALSO NOTICED A LOT OF 2015 MODEL CARS WITH SIMILAR FAILURE MODE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON AN INCLINE WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED, THE VEHICLE ROLLED AWAY IN REVERSE INTO A DITCH AND CRASHED INTO A RETAINING WALL. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED FROM THE CRASH SCENE TO A DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,800.

PURCHASED THE CAR BRAND NEW NOV 2014. THE 1ST OCCURRENCE WAS AROUND MAY OR JUNE OF 2015 ON A CITY STREET AND I WAS SLOWING DOWN WHILE IN 6TH GEAR WITH THE CLUTCH PUSHED IN AND THEN I PULLED THE SHIFTER INTO NEUTRAL. THE RUN ACTIVE POWER CAUGHT MY EYE AND THEN THERE I ALSO SO THE THE RPM WAS ON 0. I QUESTIONED MYSELF ON THIS 1ST INCIDENT THAT MAYBE I DID SOMETHING WRONG. 2ND INCIDENT HAPPENED SOMETIME IN SEPT 2015 AND I WAS ON ANOTHER CITY STREET IN 4TH GEAR GETTING READY TO COME TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT, WITH THE CLUTCH ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR I PLACED THE SHIFTER IN NEUTRAL AND I HAD A FEELING THAT THE CAR WASN'T ON ANYMORE AND LOOKED AT THE GAUGES AND SAW THAT RUN ACTIVE POWER WAS ON AGAIN AND RPM WAS ON 0. THIS TIME I KIND OF STARTED TO SUSPECT THE CAR. 3RD OCCURRENCE HAPPENED JUNE 11TH 2016 AND I WAS ON A HIGHWAY SLOWING DOWN FROM 55 OR SO AND PUSH IN THE CLUTCH TO NEUTRAL AND WHILE ROLLING IN NEUTRAL AROUND 40 TO 45 MPH I SAW THE RPM GO STRAIGHT TO 0 AND AT THIS POINT IM CONVINCED THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. ALL 3 INCIDENTS I QUICKLY STARTED THE CAR BACK UP WHILE ROLLING. ALSO SINCE I'VE PURCHASED THE CAR I'VE HAD THE DISPLAY RANDOMLY SAY THAT ALL OF MY DRIVE MODES ARE UNAVAILABLE, TRACTION CONTROL UNAVAILABLE, HILL ASSIST UNAVAILABLE, AND A FEW MORE. 1ST TIME I NOTICED THAT WAS WHILE SITTING IN TRAFFIC, AND 2ND TIME WAS ON A RANDOM START UP. I BELIEVE THIS COULD BE A COMPUTER ISSUE. *TT VIN NUMBER UNAVAILABLE UPDATED 6/15/18*JB

ON A MONDAY MORNING, I GET IN MY CAR TO GO TO WORK AND THE VEHICLE'S WARNING SENSORS START TO GO OFF INDICATING THAT MY LEFT REAR TIRE HAS ONLY 15 PSI. NOW, ONLY THE NIGHT BEFORE, I WAS DRIVING AROUND WITH NO PROBLEMS ON MY TIRES SO THIS LEADS ME TO BELIEVE I MUST HAVE PICKED UP SOMETHING ON MY WAY HOME LIKE A NAIL OR A SCREW. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE NEAREST TIRE SHOP AND WHEN THEY INSPECTED THE TIRE THEY INDICATED THERE WAS A BULGE IN THE INNER EXTERIOR OF THE TIRE. WHEN I ASKED THEM WHAT THAT MEANT THEY INFORMED ME THAT A BULGE USUALLY CREATED WHEN DRIVING THROUGH A POTHOLE. I WAS INDICATED THAT IT MUST HAVE BEEN A SIGNIFICANT POTHOLE TO CREATE SUCH A CONDITION ON A FAIRLY NEW TIRE BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT I NEVER RAN OVER A POTHOLE. THE WHEELS DO NOT HAVE ANY BENDS OR SCRATCHES INDICATING IT WENT THROUGH A POTHOLE THE SIZE OF WHICH NEEDED TO BE SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH TO CAUSE THE DAMAGE. THIS IS A NEW VEHICLE WITH ONLY 4,800 MILES AND FACTORY TIRES. BECAUSE THE BULGE IS AT THE SIDEWALL OF THE TIRE, THE ONLY COURSE OF CORRECTIVE ACTION IS THE REPLACE THE TIRE.

MY CAR SINCE 2015 WHEN I PURCHASE MY VEHICLE HAD A TICKING SOUND FROM THE ENGINE. FORD NEVER OPEN THE ENGINE INDICATING THAT IT WILL COST TO MUCH FOR THEM TO FIX IT. ON TOP OF THIS PROBLEM HAS WORSEN AND AIRBEGS, STABILITY AND OTHER PROBLEMS HAS ARISE NOW AND FORD REFUSES TO FIX THEM.

MY ENGINE HAS RANDOMLY SHUT OFF THREE SEPARATE TIMES NOW. I HAVE ABOUT 12,000 MILES ON MT 2015 MUSTANG GT W/PP MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE FIRST TIME I WAS PARKED AND IT WAS IDLING, MY FRIEND AND I BOTH WITNESSED THE IDLE DIP, THEN 3-5 SECONDS LATER THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. THE SECOND TIME (WAS MUCH MORE DANGEROUS) I WAS CHANGING LANES BECAUSE OF A CAR FAST APPROACHING FROM BEHIND, I DOWNSHIFTED FROM 3RD TO 2ND GEAR (30-40MPH), LET OUT THE CLUTCH SMOOTHLY, PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AND THE CAR DID NOTHING, I LOOKED DOWN AND THE RPM WAS AT 0 AND "PRESS CLUTCH TO START" WAS DISPLAYED ON THE GAUGE CLUSTER SCREEN. I QUICKLY DEPRESSED CLUTCH AND RESTARTED ENGINE AND TOOK OFF TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. THE THIRD TIME HAPPENED TODAY 3/15/2016 I WAS AGAIN AT IDLE AND THE ENGINE JUST SHUT DOWN WITHOUT ME TOUCHING ANYTHING, IT AGAIN DISPLAYED "PRESS CLUTCH TO START". I'VE READ IN FORUMS THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE INTERMITTENTLY, THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT CAN HAVE DEADLY CONSEQUENCES. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUE CORRECTLY RATHER THAN SENDING EVERYONE HOME WITH THE "WE DIDN'T FIND ANY ISSUE" GO-TO RESPONSE. HOPEFULLY PEOPLE DON'T HAVE TO GET INJURED, OR GOD FORBID DIE, BEFORE THIS ISSUE IS TAKEN SERIOUSLY.

AT ABOUT 2000 MILES I NOTICED THE STEERING TENDING TO PULL TO THE LEFT PREVENTING THE CAR FROM GOING STRAIGHT DOWN THE ROAD. IT APPEARS TO HAPPEN ON ANY ROAD SURFACE AND WAS INTERMITTENT. THE DEALERSHIP SUGGESTED THE MUSTANGS STEERING IS VERY SENSITIVE AND WAS RESPONDING TO ROAD CONDITIONS. THEY DEFLATED THE TIRES AS WELL AS CONDUCTING A DIAGNOSTIC. AS TIME PASSED THE CONDITION WORSENED AND DEVELOPED TO THE RIGHT AS WELL AS THE LEFT. IN ADDITION THE CAR DEVELOPED A CLUNK NOISE WHEN THE WHEELS WERE TURNED HARD LEFT OR RIGHT, ALSO INTERMITTENT. MY DEALER CHECKED IT OUT, SAW THE PULLING TO THE RIGHT AS THE TECHNICIAN ROAD WITH ME, AND COMPLETED AN ALIGNMENT. THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE BUT I EXPERIENCED IT AS I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT FOLLOWING THEIR "REPAIR." IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN AND REQUIRES CONSISTENT ATTENTION TO ENSURE THAT WHEN THE STEERING GOES AWRY IT CAN BE CORRECTED. THE LAST REPAIR WAS 12/2 AND 12/3 AND THE CAR CONTINUES TO MANIFEST THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP INSISTS THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE THAT THEY CAN DETERMINE. I INTEND TO CALL THE FORD COMPANY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000.

CAR IS EXPERIENCING A VIBRATION PROBLEM AT 65 TO 75 MPH, IN 6 GEAR, AND ENGINE IS AT 1750 RPM. VIBRATION IS DUPLICATED AGAIN, IN 5TH GEAR, AND ENGINE IS AT 2500 RPM. ALSO, WITH CAR IN THE STOP POSITION, CAR IN NEUTRAL, WITH CLUTCH IN OR OUT, SLOWLY REVVING THE ENGINE VIBRATION OCCURS AT 1500 TO 1750 RPMS. ALSO IF YOU QUICKLY REV THE ENGINE TO 2500 RPM AND DROP REVS SLOWLY VIBRATION REOCCURS AT 1750 TO 1500 RPM. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN PRESENT WITH INITIAL PURCHASE OF VEHICLE, DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS TIRES AND DRIVE IT FOR AWHILE. THE CAR HAS SINCE BEEN IN THE DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES, REPLACED ALL 4 TIRES, FORCE ROAD BALANCED 3 TIMES, AND HAS BEEN TO SECOND FORD DEALERSHIP FOR CONFIRMING VIBRATION PROBLEM. SECOND DEALERSHIP ALSO HAD ANOTHER NEW MUSTANG EXPERIENCING SAME VIBRATION AND COULD NOT BE FIXED. FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAS DECLARED THE VIBRATION PROBLEM IS WITHIN SPECS FOR MUSTANGS AND HAS DECLARED IT "NORMAL OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS" FOR MUSTANGS. AT THIS POINT MY CASE WITH FORD HAS BEEN CLOSED. IF THIS VIBRATION PROBLEM IS OCCURRING IN 40 PERCENT OF MUSTANGS AS A PRIOR COMPLAINT HAS STATED THEN FORD MOTORS NEED TO ADDRESS IT AND NOT IGNORE IT.

THERE IS A HIGH PITCHED SQUEAL WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, OR TURNING AROUND. SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE EARLY MORNING (DEW OR WETNESS). THIS STARTED WITH ABOUT 500 MILES ON THE CAR, AND SERVICE INDICATED THE BRAKES NEEDED BROKE IN, STILL CONTINUES WITH 4,000 MILES ON THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V339000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); HOWEVER, THE REMEDY WAS UNAVAILABLE FOR THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

INSTRUMENT GAUGES, TACHOMETER / SPEEDOMETER ARE SUBDUE NO LIGHTING DURING DAY LIGHT DRIVING. COMES AND GOES. SAFETY HAZARD DRIVER DIVERSION. ENGINE WILL OVER-SPEED AT 7,500 RPM AND QUIT TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR IN DRIVE. FORD HAS STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS NORMAL. HASN'T ADDRESS THE ENGINE OVER SPEED YET. GAUGE LIGHTING HAS NOT BEEN FIX YET. FOUR TIMES TO FORD...UPDATED 10/29/15*BF

UNDER LIGHT PRESSURE THE BRAKES SQUEAL IN A HIGH PITCH. ESPECIALLY IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. THEY ALSO SQUEAL WHEN BRAKING AROUND CORNERS . I SEE EXCESSIVE WEAR IN THE REAR ROTORS FOR A CAR WITH LESS THAN 3000 MILES ALSO. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS THE COMPOSITION OF THE ROTOR METAL THAT IT WAS NO WORRIES ..I WORRY . I WAS A MASTER TECH FOR 15YEARS AND THIS ISN'T CORRECT . I BOUGHT A $50G CAR SO I COULD HAVE A GOOD CAR AND WARRANTEE.. ?????

AS I AM TURNING ON MY VEHICHLE TO GO TO WORK LIKE NORMAL MY AUTOMATIC SHIFTER BECAME SO HARD TO MOVE INTO GEAR THAT I HAD TO USE TWO HANDS. WHEN I WAS ABLE TO SELECT THE CORRECT GEAR MY CAR KEPT ON SHAKING AND MAKING A HUGE "CLUNK" NOISE THAT YOU CAN FEEL IT BY SITTING IN THE CAR. THE "CLUNK" NOISE BECAME MORE PROMINENT WHEN SELECTING REVERSE FROM THE PARK POSITION. IF ONE SELECTS DRIVE TO REVERSE THE NOISE AND FEEL IS STILL THERE JUST NOT AS PROMINENT.

THE PUSH BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH IS LOCATED DIRECTLY UNDER THE RADIO CONTROL BUTTONS. THE IGNITION BUTTON WILL SHUT THE CAR OFF WHILE IN GEAR AND IN MOTION. THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS IN A PARKING LOT, GOING ABOUT 5 MPH. MY HUSBAND ACCIDENTLY PUSHED THE IGNITION BUTTON INSTEAD OF THE RADIO CONTROL BUTTON AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. FORD HAS NO SOLUTION TO THIS HAZARDOUS DESIGN FLAW, AND TOLD ME THEY CAN'T RE-ENGINEER THE VEHICLE TO ELIMINATE THE RISK OF A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

LOUD THUD WHEN SHIFTING, GRINDING DURING SHIFTING OF ALL GEARS, INTERMITTENT HIGH RPM LOCKOUT. FORD CLAIMS ITS "NORMAL".

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM AN IDLE POSITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT FROM FIRST GEAR AND STALLED. ALSO, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILED TO ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE SHIFTING ISSUE WAS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE AND THAT A DIMMER SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED FOR THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,171. THE CONSUMER STATED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR. IT HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS PUT TO THE FLOOR AND THE ENGINE REVVED. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS RELEASED THE VEHICLE WOULD SHIFT PROPER;Y. NORMAL SHIFTING WAS AROUND 6,200- 6,500 RPM. UPDATED 10/26/15*JB

AS I WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN INTO MY DRIVEWAY, WE HEARD A SLIGHT SNAP NOISE AND THE POWER STEERING QUIT. LIGHTS STARTED COMING ON, ON THE DRIVERS SCREEN, INDICATING THAT MANY FUNCTIONS OF THE CAR HAD STOPPED WORKING, LIKE TRACTION CONTROL. I COULD NOT TURN THE WHEEL. MY HUSBAND WRESTLED THE CAR INTO THE GARAGE. WE CALLED OUR LOCAL FORD DEALER IN THE MORNING AND THEY HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT WAS AN INTERNAL E.P.A.S. RACK FAILURE. THE PART NUMBER WAS FR3Z-3504-A, KIT - STEERING. I WOULD HATE TO THINK ABOUT WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF I HAD BEEN ON A BUSY ROAD OR INTERSTATE WHEN THIS OCCURRED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED CHEST, KNEE, AND BACK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN UNKNOWN LOCATION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.

THE ABOVE VEHICLE IS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG ECO-BOOST CONVERTIBLE. IT IS EQUIPPED WITH ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL. WHEN A VEHICLE IN FRONT SLOWS BELOW A SET SPEED OR A VEHICLE CUTS THE CAR OFF THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL SLOWS THE CAR DOWN, OR STOPS IT, TO KEEP A PREDETERMINED DISTANCE. ACCORDING TO FORD THE SLOWING IS DONE BY THE ENGINE AND NOT THE BRAKES. ONCE THE VEHICLE SLOWS, AND IT IS SAFE, IT BEGINS TO ACCELERATE BACK TO THE SET CRUISE CONTROL SPEED. THE SLOWING, NOT BEING DONE BY THE BRAKING SYSTEM, DOES NOT ACTIVATE THE BRAKE LIGHTS. ONLY WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS STEPPED ON WILL THE BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON WHICH ALSO WOULD DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. WE HAVE HAD A COUPLE OF INCIDENTS IN WHICH THE VEHICLE BEHIND DOES NOT SEE THE CAR SLOWING, BY BRAKE LIGHTS, AND CLOSES AT A RAPID SPEED ON THE REAR OF THE CAR. LOOKING AT A DODGE RAM CLOSING, NOT KNOWING IT'S GOING TO STOP, CAN BE A BIT UNNERVING. I HAVE RECENTLY READ THAT THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING MAY BE INSTALLED ON FUTURE VEHICLES AS A STANDARD OPTION. I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT KEEPING A VEHICLE FROM CRASHING INTO A FORWARD MOVING VEHICLE IS ANY MORE OR LESS IMPORTANT THEN BEING STRUCK IN THE REAR BECAUSE BRAKE LIGHTS DON'T COME ON. I AM CERTAINLY MORE CAUTIOUS DRIVING THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL ON BECAUSE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE TALKED TO FORD "CUSTOMER RELATIONS DEPT" WHO WEREN'T SURE HOW TO FOLLOW THIS UP BUT TO SENT IT UP THE LADDER. I HAVE A FORD CASE #CAS-7876013. ...UPDATED 12/29/15 *BF ACCORDING TO FORD, THE SLOWING IS DONE BY THE ENGINE AND NOT THE BRAKES. ONCE THE VEHICLE SLOWS DOWN, AND IT IS SAFE, IT BEGINS TO ACCELERATE BACK TO THE SET CRUISE CONTROL SPEED. THE SLOWING NOT BEING DONE BY THE BRAKING SYSTEM, DOES NOT ACTIVATE THE BRAKE LIGHTS. ONLY WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL I STEPPED ON WILL THE BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON WHICH ALSO WOULD DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. THE CONSUMER STATED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, OTHER VEHICLES DID NOT OBSERVE HIM SLOWING DOWN BECAUSE THE BRAKE LIGHTS DID NOT ILLUMINATE. UPDATED 12/31/15. *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE VIBRATED VIOLENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE FOR A WEEKEND GET AWAY, I HAD TOTAL BRAKE LOSS WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. BRAKE PEDAL BECAME REALLY HARD AND WENT DOWN ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I HAD TO USED MY HAND BRAKE TO REASSURE MY SELF OF STOPPING AND NOT COLLIDING WITH THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. AFTER PULLING OVER AND TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF FOR ABOUT 3 MINUTES, I CRANKED THE VEHICLE BACK ON TESTED THE BRAKES BEFORE I CONTINUED AND THEY FELT NORMAL, THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS 115. TWO DAYS LATER, AS I AM PULLING UP INTO MY DESIGNATED PARKING STALL OF MY WORK. BRAKE PEDAL BECAME HARD AND NONEXISTENT, PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND HAD TO USE THE HAND BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I PARKED THE VEHICLE AND SET UP AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY PURCHASING DEALER THAT SAME DAY. AT THE END OF MY WORKING DAY, I TURNED OVER MY VEHICLE AND TESTED THE BRAKES BEFORE LEAVING THE OFFICE, JUST TO MAKE I HAD BRAKES. AND JUST LIKE LAST TIME BRAKES WERE NORMAL. I DROPPED OFF MY VEHICLE ON THURSDAY AT 5:15 PM, TODAY IS MONDAY AND THEY ARE STILL WORKING ON THE PROBLEM.THE SERVICE ADVISOR, WHO IS WORKING ON MY CASE IS GIVING ME A PROJECTED RESPONSE DAY OF WEDNESDAY. THAT WOULD MEAN, THAT MY VEHICLE WOULD BE IN AT THE REPAIR FACILITY FOR A ABOUT 4 WORKING DAYS. THE PROBLEM THAT HE IS FORESEEING IS THAT THEY ARE HAVING DIFFICULTY REPLICATING THE ISSUE. AT THIS POINT I JUST WANT TO REST ASSURE THAT I WILL BE SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE. ALSO, I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS SIMILAR SITUATION. AND IN ONE OCCASION HE WAS INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS CAR ACCIDENT THAT HAS BEEN RECORDED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG GT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER AND TURNING SIGNAL FLASHER BECAME INOPERABLE INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,200.

ON JULY 4TH, MY 2015 FORD MUSTANG, HAD A BREAK PEDAL ISSUE, THE PEDAL WOULD LOCK AND WOULD NOT ALLOW VEHICLE TO STOP. THE FIST TIME HAPPEN TO ME WILE DRIVING 55 MPH AND I WAS LUCKY BECAUSE IT WAS EARLY IN THE MORNING ON A NOT BUY AVENUE SO I WAS ABLE TO TOP THE CAR WITH THE HAND BREAK. HOWEVER, IN THE PROCESS I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. THE TOW THE VEHICLE WITH 882 MILES AND RETURNED TO ME WITH 882 MILES. SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE I HAD PURCHASE THE RENTAL CAR OPTION AND THE CAR WAS NOT PROVIDED TO ME UNTIL THE DAY AFTER THE INCIDENT. IN ADDITION, THEY ONLY CONDUCTED A VISUAL POINT INSPECTION AND REPROGRAMMED THE PCM. I SPOKE TO MY CASE MANAGER AT FORD AND THEY GUARANTEE THAT THEY HAD RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT WOULD NOT HAPPEN. UNFORTUNATELY ON AUGUST 1ST ONLY A MONTH LATER AND AT AROUND 1500 MILES, THE BREAK PEDAL LOCKED AND THIS TIME I WAS INVOLVE IN AN ACCIDENT. ALTHOUGH I WAS DRIVING ONLY 35 MPH, MY VEHICLE SUFFER SEVER DAMAGES. I TOW THE VEHICLE TO FORD AND EXPECTED A RENTAL CAR, BUT THEY TOLD ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE RENTAL, WHICH IS STUPID BECAUSE MY EXTENDED WARRANTY SHOULD COVER THE EXPENSES OF THE RENTAL. I FEEL LUCKY THAT I HAD THE ACCIDENT AT A LOW SPEED AND I DIDN'T HAVE ANY INJURY TO MY SELF. HOWEVER IF IT WOULD BEEN AT A HIGHWAY SPEED I COULD BE DEATH AND POSSIBLE MANY OTHER, DUE TO AN ISSUE THAT I HAD PRESENTED TO FORD A MONTH IN ADVANCE. I HATE FORD, I AM SCARE TO DRIVE, AND EVERY TIME I HEAR A HONK I PANIC. TODAY IS A WEEK SINCE THE ACCIDENT AND DEALERSHIP HAS NOT EVEN LOOK AT THE CAR SINCE THEY ARE STILL WAITING ON FORD INSTRUCTIONS. THE DEALERSHIP EXCUSE IS THAT THEY NEED TO DRIVE THE CAR TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE, HOWEVER THE WHEEL AND TIRE AND THE ARM THAT HELP TO GIVE THE DIRECTION OF THE CAR IS DAMAGE AND DOES NOT ALLOW THEM TO DRIVE IT. NOW FORD WANTS TO DRIVE IT!!

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2015 MUSTANG GT WITH COOLED SEAT OPTION. WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW IN NOVEMBER OF 2014 AND TRIED THE COOLED SEATS THEY WORKED WELL DURING THOSE COLD LATE FALL DAYS FOR THE HANDFUL OF TIMES I USED IT. AFTER IT GOT COLD DURING WINTER AND SPRING I DID NOT USE THE COOLED SEAT FEATURE AGAIN UNTIL APPROXIMATELY MAY 1, 2015. AT THIS TIME THE LOWER SEAT COOLER WOULD COOL THE SEAT BUT THE UPPER SEAT COOLER WOULD NOT COOL THE SEAT FOR ANY AMOUNT OF TIME. IN FACT QUITE THE OPPOSITE OCCURRED. WITH THE SEAT COOLING SET TO MAXIMUM OF 3 BARS THE LOWER COOLER WOULD GET THE SEAT COLD BUT THE UPPER SEAT COOLER WOULD ACTUALLY WARM THE SEAT UP. SEVERAL TESTS CONFIRMED THIS HAPPENING FOR BOTH SEATS, DRIVER AND PASSENGER. DUE TO THE DESIGN OF THE THERMOELECTRIC DEVICE BURIED AND ENCLOSED IN THE SEAT BACK, THE BACK SIDE OF EACH SEAT BACK WOULD ACTUALLY WARM AS WELL TO LEVELS VERY HOT TO TOUCH AFTER AS SHORT OF TIME OF 5 MINUTES OF USE. IT APPEARS THAT MANY OTHER 2015 MUSTANG OWNERS WITH THIS OPTION ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES. ALSO 2015 FORD F150 OWNERS WHO HAVE THE SAME DESIGN TED COOLING DEVICE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS AS WELL. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND REGISTERED MY COMPLAINT BUT NO FIX IS OUT THERE CURRENTLY FROM FORD THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A FAULTY DESIGN. ITS EQUIVALENT WOULD BE PUTTING A ROOM AIR CONDITIONER INSIDE A ROOM AND EXPECTING IT TO COOL THE AIR. ON TOP OF THAT WITH PROLONGED USAGE THE MATERIAL ON THE BACK OF THE SEAT WHERE THE TED VENTS ITS WASTE HEAT GETS HOTTER AND HOTTER AND COULD POSE A FIRE RISK WITH PROLONGED USAGE IN THE VEHICLE. CURRENTLY WE HAVE NO INFORMATION WHETHER OR NOT FORD IS EITHER AWARE OR EVEN HAS ANY INTENTION OF ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE I DO NOT USE MY COOLED SEATS FUNCTION CURRENTLY BECAUSE IT ONLY WORKS ON THE BOTTOMS AND HEATS US THE UPPER SEAT WHILE IN USE. THE UPPER SEAT WILL ACTUALLY BE COOLER IF LEFT OFF.

I AM ALSO EXPERIENCING THE THUD ISSUE IN MY 2015 FORD MUSTANG GT CAR. IT'S REALLY NOTICEABLE WHEN I SHIFT FROM AND TO 1, 2, 3, 4 AND IT'S QUIETER BUT STILL THERE SHIFTING 5 AND 6. NOISE IS VERY ANNOYING, BUT MY CONCERN IS WILL I HAVE ISSUES WITH MY DRIVE TRAIN, CLUTCH OR ANY THING ELSE IN THE FUTURE.

EARLY IN JULY 2015, I RECEIVED FROM FORD MOTOR CORPORATE AN "IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL" NOTICE NHTSA RECALL 15V-339. WHEN I GOT THE NOTICE WHICH URGES YOU TO "CALL YOUR DEALER WITHOUT DELAY"I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I GOT MY CAR, AUTONATION FORD IN TORRANCE, CALIFORNIA, THE DAY AFTER I GOT THE NOTICE.. I SPOKE TO SOMEONE IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT; THEY KNEW NOTHING ABOUT THE RECALL; PUT ME ON HOLD; SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO CALL ME BACK. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, TO DATE I HAVE BEEN GETTING THE RUNAROUND FROM THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I LEASED THE CAR AND THE DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED BY FORD'S CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP CENTER I KEEP GETTING TOLD THE FUEL TANK SHIELD ISN'T AVAILABLE WHEREAS FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE ADVISES THAT IT IS AVAILABLE. . I HAVE ALSO CALLED YOUR NHTSA CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER SEVERAL TIMES--AGAIN, PUT ON HOLD, NO CALL BACK ALTHOUGH I LEFT MY NUMBER. NO ONE TO DATE HAS ADVISED ME WHEN THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. I WAS CONTACTED BY A MARK JOHNSON YESTERDAY FROM FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE; , HE COULD NOT GIVE ME A DEFINITIVE ANSWER RE WHEN THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE ALTHOUGH CUSTOMER SERVICE HAD ADVISED THEY WERE AVAILABLE. HE ALSO TRIED TO DEFEND THE ONE DEALERSHIP'S POSITION THAT IT NEEDED TO SEE THE CAR FIRST TO SEE IF THERE WAS A FUEL OR VAPOR LEAK--EXCUSE ME BUT THE WHOLE POINT OF THE RECALL IS SO THAT THE CAR WON'T DEVELOP A FUEL OR VAPOR LEAK!!! HE SAID THAT AT THE SAME TIME THAT THE SAFETY RECALL NOTICES ARE SENT OUT, AN EMAIL GOES TO ALL THE DEALERSHIPS ADVISING THEM OF RECALL AND THE PARTS NEEDED: REALLY? THEN WHY DID NEITHER OF THE DEALERSHIPS I CONTACTED KNOW ABOUT THE RECALL? THE RUN-AROUND I AM GETTING IS INEXCUSABLE: I LIVE IN A STATE WITH ELEVATED TEMPERATURES AND WHERE FRIENDS CAN LIVE LONG DISTANCES FROM EACH OTHER: I WANT THIS DEFECT FIXED--NOW. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V339000 (FUEL SYSTEM) AND STATED THAT THE PART NEEDED WAS NOT AVAILABLE WITHIN A REASONABLE TIMEFRAME TO SCHEDULE THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER DID NOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE FOR WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER COULD NOT PROVIDE AN ESTIMATED DATE FOR WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD RECEIVE THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT WAS NOT EXPERIENCING A FAILURE.

WHILE DRIVING FROM SOUTH CAROLINA TO BOSTON MA, A DISTANCE OF 1,000 MILES, ON JUNE 12-13, 2015, I BEGAN EXPERIENCING SEVERE EYE IRRITATION, SORE THROAT, AND DIZZINESS. THERE WAS AN ACRID ODOR THAT I INITIALLY THOUGH WAS COMING FROM THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM. THE RED EYES, SORE THROAT AND DIZZINESS PERSISTED FOR SEVERAL DAYS AFTER I ARRIVED IN BOSTON,REDUCING IN SEVERITY WITH EACH DAY BECAUSE I DID NOT DRIVE THE CAR WHILE THERE. HOWEVER, WHEN I DROVE BACK FROM BOSTON TO SOUTH CAROLINA, THE SYMPTOMS REAPPEARED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT NEW AND THEY CHECK THE REFRIGERANT IN THE A/C SYSTEM AND COULD FIND NOTHING. THEY RECOMMENDED USING ONLY THE MAX AIR SYSTEM IN ORDER TO ELIMINATE EXTERIOR AIR FROM THE SYSTEM. TELLING ME THAT CERTAIN CHEMICALS USED IN PREPPING THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT FOR DELIVERY TO A CUSTOMER CAN EXUDE IRRITATING FUMES. I TOLD THEM THE FUMES I HAD EXPERIENCED SEEMED TO ME TO BE MORE FUEL RELATED, BUT NOT THE ODOR OF RAW GASOLINE. I HAVE BEEN USING THE MAX AIR SETTINGS AND HAVE NOT HAD A SIMILAR SYMPTOM EXPERIENCE, ALTHOUGH I HAVE ONLY DRIVING SHORT DISTANCES SINCE RETURNING FROM BOSTON. I HAVE RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE 15S19 FROM FORD, BUT I BELIEVE THE RECALL NOTICE UTTERLY FAILS TO EXPLAIN THE PHYSICAL DANGER TO OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE RESULTING FROM PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO THE FUMES. I BELIEVE THE RECALL NOTICE NEEDS TO BE AMENDED TO EXPRESS AN URGENCY RELATING TO THE MEDICAL IMPACT OF THIS PROBLEM AS I HAVE EXPERIENCED IT. IT TOOK MORE THAN 10 DAYS FOR THE SYMPTOMS, IN PARTICULAR THE DIZZINESS AND SORE THROAT, TO SUBSIDE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE ODOR OF FUEL WAS PRESENT INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ALSO INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED USING NO FUEL CAP. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE FUEL TANK DOOR WOULD RANDOMLY OPEN AND EXPOSE THE FUEL OPENING. IN ADDITION, OIL WAS DISCOVERED LEAKING FROM THE ENGINE. NO FURTHER INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000.

AIR BAG DEFECT SINCE NEW VEHICLE DELIVERY. I TOOK DELIVERY OF THIS VEHICLE ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO AND IMMEDIATELY LEFT WITH IT ON VACATION. WHEN DRIVING OFF THE DEALER LOT I NOTICED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT IN THE DASH WAS ON. BUT THOUGHT THIS TO BE NORMAL AS THAT IS HOW THE DEALER DELIVERED IT TO ME AND THAT I AM USED TO GM VEHICLES WHERE THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON UNDER PROPER CONDITIONS. TODAY WHILE AT THE DEALERS BODY SHOP FOR MINOR PAINT REPAIR I WAS TOLD TO IMMEDIATELY TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THEIR MECHANICAL SHOP AS THE LIGHT ON A FORD INDICATES THE SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING. THE DEALER WAS ACCOMMODATING AND IN SHORT ORDER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO BE A DEFECTIVE DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG. THEY THEN TOOK THE PART OUT OF A SIMILAR NEW CAR IN STOCK AND REPLACED MINE. THE PROBLEM WAS NOT SOLVED. I AM NOW DRIVING A LOANER VEHICLE AND BEING TOLD THAT A CLOCK SPRING IS ON ORDER.

TRANSMISSION THUD/CLUNK THAT MOVES THE CAR WHEN GOING FROM NEUTRAL TO 1ST GEAR. HAPPENS WHEN GOING INTO EVERY GEAR UNLESS SHIFTING EXTREMELY SLOW. THE THUD CLUNK CAN BE HEARD AND FELT THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOOR BOARD. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,500.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE REVERSING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE REAR BRAKES FAILED. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

VEHICLE EVENT WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. WHILE ADJUSTING THE AIR TEMP WITH MY RIGHT HAND, MY PINKY TOUCHED THE START STOP BUTTON CAUSING THE VEHICLE ENGINE TO SHUT DOWN. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND DISCOVERED THAT MY CAR WOULD SHUT DOWN IN DRIVE BY JUST TOUCHING THE START STOP BUTTON. THE ONLY WAY TO RESTART THE ENGINE IS TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. IT WAS SAFE FOR ME, ALTHOUGH I WAS IN A LINE OF TRAFFIC, BECAUSE I WAS ON A TWO LANE ROAD WITH SHOULDER ROOM AVAILABLE. THE SEAT DID NOT RETURN TO THE EXIT POSITION. I AM VERY CAREFUL NOW WHEN MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CONTROLS CLUSTER BECAUSE OF THE CLOSENESS OF THE START STOP BUTTON TO THE OTHER CONTROLS. THE SWITCH ALSO OPERATES WITH VERY LIGHT PRESSURE AND ITS SURFACE IS CONVEX. I DO NOT LET ANYONE ELSE DRIVE THIS VEHICLE IN ITS CURRENT CONDITION.

RENTAL CAR, I WAS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC GOING INTO THE LINCOLN TUNNEL WHEN THE BRAKE PEDDLE DID NT WORK PROPERLY. THE PEDDLE WENT DOWN ALMOST TO THE FLOOR. WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES. THE PEDDLE PULSATED AND NEEDED A LOT OF PRESSURE TO STOP THE CAR. THE BRAKES STARTED TO WORK AGAIN AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES. THIS INCIDENT WAS SCARY AND COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO ENTERPRISE CAR RENTAL.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND WHEN I TRIED TO BRAKE FOR A STOP LIGHT THE BRAKE PEDAL PULSED AGAINST THE PRESSURE OF MY FOOT AND WOULD NOT LET ME STOP. I USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO KEEP FROM WRECKING MY VEHICLE INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I DECIDED TO GO DIRECTLY TO MY WORKPLACE, USING MY EMERGENCY BAKE TO STOP AT EACH LIGHT/STOPSIGN, AFTER THIS HAPPENED. IN ADDITION TO THE BRAKE ISSUE, WHEN I WENT TO ACCELERATE FROM STOP THE VEHICLE WOULD ACCELERATE VERY SLOWLY AS IF IN A LIMP MODE. NO LIGHTS HAVE APPEARED ON MY DASH AND FORD HAS TOLD ME THERE ARE NO CODES STORED. THEY SAY THAT HAVING IT TOWED HAS RESET MY VEHICLE?!? FORD HAS TOLD ME THAT BECAUSE THEY DONT SEE ANY CODES STORED IN THE COMPUTER I SHOULD PICK UP MY VEHICLE AND DRIVE OFF WITH IT. MY FATHER OWNES A MOBILE ELECTRONICS SHOP AND HAS SEEN LOTS OF DIFFERENT ISSUES ON MANY VEHICLES WHERE THE CPU'S IN THE VEHICLE HAS ISSUES AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO ACT IN MANY FAULTY WAYS. SOME WITH CODES, OTHERS WITHOUT. IT APPEARS TO ME THAT ONE OR MORE OF THE CPU'S IN MY VEHICLE HAVE A DEFECT CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO ACT THIS WAY. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE DRIVING THIS CAR NOW AND DO NOT AGREE WITH FORD THAT I SHOULD CONTINUE DRIVING MY VEHICLE.

I FAILED TO LEAVE THE CAR IN 1ST GEAR ON AN APPROXIMATELY 4% GRADE. I ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE AND LEFT THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE REMAINED PARKED IN PLACE FOR 20-30 MINUTES. SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 0 AND 30 MINUTES LATER, THE PARKING BRAKE RELEASED AND THE VEHICLE ROLLED DOWN THE GRADE, CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND NEIGHBOR'S PROPERTY. I AM AN EX-BRAKING ENGINEER AND HAVE REPRODUCED THE DEFECT MULTIPLE TIMES WELL UNDER THE FMVSS 135 PROTOCOL LIMITS OF ACCEPTABLE PERFORMANCE. I COMMUNICATED THIS TO FORD CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY WISH FOR ME TO HAVE BODY DAMAGE REPLACED THROUGH INSURANCE.

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ONLY A MILE FROM MY HOUSE. SLOWED DOWN FOR A RED LIGHT AND THE ENGINE STALLED OUT. I HAD TO PULL OVER TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE STARTED BACK UP FINE. I THOUGHT MAYBE I STALLED IT SINCE THERE WAS NO CEL AND IT STARTED RIGHT BACK UP. HOWEVER THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED 3 DAYS LATER, THE SAME DISTANCE FROM MY HOUSE. THIS TIME I KNEW I DID NOT STALL IT. IT IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP NOW. THEY EXPLAINED THEY WOULD HAVE GREAT DIFFICULTY REPLICATING THE ISSUE SINCE IT DIDN'T THROW ANY CODES. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE FOR A BRAND NEW CAR WITH ONLY 10,000 MILES.

UPON APPROACHING 60MPH THE CAR EXHIBITS AN EXTREME VIBRATION FROM THE DRIVELINE. IT IS FELT THROUGH THE WHOLE VEHICLE, THE STEERING WHEEL AND SEATS. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE DRIVESHAFT, AND THE VIBRATION IS STILL PRESENT. THE DEALERSHIP BELIEVES THE PROBLEM IS AXLE RELATED AND ASKED FOR ASSISTANCE FROM FORD. FORD ACKNOWLEDGED THE ISSUE, BUT DID NOT OFFER A SOLUTION . THE DEALERSHIP BELIEVES IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN. FORD IS STILL NOT ADDRESSING IT. FROM THE ONLINE COMMUNITY, THIS IS AN ISSUE AFFECTING 40% OF 2015 MUSTANG VEHICLES. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER ACTIVATED, THE ODOR OF BURNT OIL WAS PRESENT INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200.

I EMAILED THE FOLLOWING TO FORD ON 2/9/2015 WITH NO RESPONSE TO DATE FROM THEM HELLO, I DON'T KNOW WHO TO CONTACT OR HOW TO GET MY POINT TO THE RIGHT PERSON, I AM HOPING YOU WILL MAKE SOMEONE TAKE NOTICE. I RENTED A 2015 MUSTANG WHILE ON VACATION IN JANUARY. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY KNEE HIT THE KEYS ( RENTAL CARS ALWAYS HAVE THE EXTRA KEYS AND INFO TAG MAKING IT BULKY ANYWAY ). THE KEYS TURNED THE IGNITION TO ACCESSORY AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY IN TRAFFIC AT 70 MPH. AFTER THE NEWS REPORTS OF THE OTHER IGNITION RECALL THAT I HAVE SEEN ON ABC AND MY FIRST RESPONSE TRAINING, I STAYED CALM AND WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD WITHOUT INCIDENT. I WOULD JUST LIKE TO MAKE SURE FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS AND SOMETHING IS DONE BEFORE ANYONE GETS HURT. I NOTIFIED THE RENTAL COMPANY OF THE ISSUE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AND LET ME KNOW THAT YOU HAVE AT LEAST READ MY MESSAGE. I WOULD JUST LIKE TO MAKE SURE NOONE GETS HURT AND THE ISSUE IS AT LEAST DUPLICATED AND INVESTIGATED. THANK YOU.

I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE TRAVELING SOUTH WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON. I WENT OVER A BUMP THAT I USUALLY GO OVER WHEN HEADED IN THAT DIRECTION AND THE DRIVER DOOR ALL OF A SUDDEN OPENED/UNLOCKED ITSELF. IT WAS LOCKED OR ELSE THE DASHBOARD WOULD OF INDICATED THAT MY TRANSMISSION WAS NOT IN PARK BEFORE SETTING OFF ON MY TRIP. *TR

BOUGHT A BRAND NEW FORD 2015 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE ON 1/13/15 IN FLORIDA. CAR WAS DELIVERED WITHOUT PROTECTIVE TONNEAU COVERS/CAPS. WHEN CONVERTIBLE IS IN DOWN POSITION, THERE ARE BIG, HOLES IN TOP OF REAR PANEL EXPOSING THE MECHANICAL ARMS. S APPARENTLY THE OEM OF THESE PARTS COULD NOT MAKE THEM PROPERLY AND IF AN OWNER TRIES TO PUT UP TOP WITHOUT REMOVAL THE WHOLE CONVERTIBLE TOP MECHANISM GETS DESTROYED.RIGHT NOW ALL SORTS OF DIRT AND DEBRIS GETS INTO THESE BIG GAPING HOLES. THESE PARTS ARE LISTED ON PAGE 186 OF THE MANUAL. THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO COME WITH THE CAR. NO INFO FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY OR MY DEALER IS FORTHCOMING ABOUT WHEN I WILL RECEIVE THESE PARTS. WHEN I CALL FORD MARKETING THEY GIVE ME A SHIP DATE, WHICH PASSES W/O DELIVERY. TODAY WHEN I CALLED FORD MARKETING THEY SAID THEY DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS???? FORD HAS BEEN VERY DISHONEST ABOUT WHEN THESE PARTS WILL BE SHIPPED. *TR

WITH ONLY 500+ MILES ON MY CAR TO DATE, I HAVE EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WHERE MY 2015 MUSTANG GT'S ENGINE SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHEN I AM APPROACHING A STOP AND DISENGAGE THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION TO COAST TO A STOP. THE CAR DOES NOT GIVE ANY INDICATION THAT IT IS EXPERIENCING ANY ISSUES PRIOR TO OR DURING THE SHUTDOWN. THE ENGINE SIMPLY DIES. THIS LATEST INCIDENT NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE WHEN I WAS APPROACHING THE RED LIGHT I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL WHILE SLOWING DOWN AND THE LIGHT SUBSEQUENTLY CHANGED QUICKLY TO GREEN--AND MY ENGINE DIED. THE CAR BEHIND ME HAD ALREADY ACCELERATED EXPECTING ME TO PROCEED BUT I WAS COASTING WHILE TRYING TO RESTART THE CAR. FORTUNATELY, THERE WAS NO REAR END IMPACT AND I RESTARTED THE CAR AND PROCEEDED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND WHAT MAKES IT WORSE IS HOW RANDOM IT IS. FORD NEEDS TO FIGURE THIS OUT QUICK BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS HURT OR KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT RELATED TO THIS ISSUE. FOR THE RECORD, THERE ARE MANY OTHERS WITH THIS SAME MODEL CAR THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME DANGEROUS ISSUE AND ARE POSTING THEIR EXPERIENCES ONLINE AT THE MUSTANG GENERATION 6 FORUM. *TR

FORD HAS FAILED TO MAKE A SPARE WHEEL/TIRE AVAILABLE FOR THE 2015 MUSTANG. IT IS NOT STANDARD ON ALL VEHICLES (A TIRE INFLATION KIT IS ALL IT COMES WITH) AND THE SPARE WHEEL/TIRE IS ON BACK ORDER FOR ALL DEALERSHIPS BECAUSE SUPPLY IS LOW AND PRODUCTION IS BEING PRIORITIZED OVER OWNER AVAILABILITY. THEREFORE, I AM STUCK WITHOUT A SPARE WHEEL/TIRE. I HAVE EVEN TRIED TO PROCURE AN AFTERMARKET SPARE AND 3 DIFFERENT TIRE STORES HAVE TOLD ME THEY DO NOT HAVE A COMPATIBLE SPARE AVAILABLE. FORD IS HANDLING THE AVAILABILITY OF A SPARE WHEEL/TIRE AS A SHORTAGE OF AN "ACCESSORY" AS IF IT IS A FLOOR MAT, RATHER THAN A SAFETY CRITICAL PART AS A SPARE WHEEL/TIRE IS. *TR

FIRST OCCURRENCE (MID DECEMBER 2014): I WAS COMING UP TO A RED LIGHT AND THE TURN WAS SLIGHTLY UPHILL. I APPROACH THE LIGHT AND DROP THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL (CLUTCH WAS FULLY ENGAGED CONTINUOUSLY AT THIS POINT) AND WHILE BRAKING, AS I APPROACHED THE RED LIGHT TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN MY CAR'S RPMS JUST DROP COMPLETELY TO 0. IT DIDN'T EVEN TRY TO CATCH IDLE. THIS WAS ABOUT 1.5 MONTHS AGO. I FIGURED THAT IT MIGHT BE SOMETHING WITH THE TUNE I'M RUNNING SO I CALLED UP BAMA AND HAD THEM SEND ME A FRESH TUNE AFTER EXPLAINING WHAT HAD HAPPENED. ALSO, NOT SURE IF THIS HELPS OR IS RELEVANT INFORMATION BUT I HAD BEEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY FOR ABOUT 40 MIN BEFORE THAT AND DID A PULL ON THE HIGHWAY 2 MIN BEFORE THE CAR DIED. SECOND OCCURRENCE (2/25/2015): TODAY WHILE DRIVING TO WORK IN THE MORNING I WAS SWITCHING LANES AND AS I MERGED INTO THE LANE I ENGAGE THE CLUTCH FULLY AND WAS BRAKING TO ADJUST TO THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME AND WAS PREPARING TO DOWNSHIFT INTO GEAR, BUT BEFORE I COULD DOWNSHIFT THE RPMS KEEP DROPPING AND GO PAST NORMAL IDLE AND DROP TO 0 AGAIN WITHOUT EVEN TRYING TO CATCH IDLE AGAIN. SO I QUICKLY START IT BACK UP AGAIN AND IT DROVE FINE AFTER THAT. THIS CAN BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE IF NOT TAKEN SERIOUSLY. MORE AND MORE MUSTANG OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM AND I HAD TO SWITCH DEALERSHIPS BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM REFUSES TO WORK ON MY CAR SINCE IT IS LOWERED. FORD RACING OFFERS LOWERING SPRINGS FOR THE VEHICLE WHICH IS A FORD PART. IF SOMEONE WAS TO HAVE THESE SPRINGS INSTALLED AND THE CAR WAS LOWERED WITH FORD PARTS DOES THAT MEAN THE DEALERSHIP WILL REFUSE TO WORK ON IT IF IT DOESN'T FIT ON THEIR LIFTS THEN AS WELL? I HAVE REPORTED OTHER ISSUES AS WELL WHICH FORD HAS CLAIMED TO BE NORMAL JUST BECAUSE IT IS OCCURRING ON OTHER VEHICLES AS WELL. THE CSM AT FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAS BEEN A HUGE HELP SO THANK YOU FOR THAT. *TR

UPON APPROACHING A RED LIGHT WITH THE CLUTCH PEDAL PRESSED DOWN, AND MANUAL TRANS IN NEUTRAL THE ENGINE DIED. ALSO HAD "RUN POWER ON" ON THE DASH. BUMPED THE START BUTTON AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. DESCRIPTION OF ELECTRICAL ISSUES: TEMPS OUTSIDE WERE MID 80'S. (CAR WAS STILL COLD ENGINE WISE AND I HAD THE A/C ON FULL BLAST WHEN IT DIED.) DASH BOARD INFORMATION/TOUCH SCREEN READOUT SAID IT WAS 70 DEGREES OUTSIDE WHILE TEMPS WERE IN THE MID 80'S. AND AS I WAS DRIVING, (CITY TRAFFIC) I WOULD SHIFT AT OR AROUND 2500 RPM. WHEN I PRESSED IN THE CLUTCH TO SHIFT THE RPM'S WOULD JUMP ABOUT 1000 RPM'S UNTIL I LET THE CLUTCH OUT. THIS OCCURRED ABOUT THREE OR FOUR TIMES OUT OF TEN TO FIFTEEN SHIFTS. ABOUT 3 MILES UP THE ROAD I PULLED OVER, SHUT THE CAR OFF AND OPENED THE DOOR TO TURN OFF THE STEREO AND TOUCH SCREEN. CRANKED IT UP AND RIGHT AWAY THE OUTSIDE TEMP READING WAS THE ACTUAL 85 DEGREES. NO MORE REVS ON SHIFT AND RAN FINE ALL THE WAY HOME FOR THE NEXT 15 MILES. REPORTING THIS DUE TO MULTIPLE ISSUES OF THIS BEING REPORTED BY OTHER 2015 MUSTANG OWNERS ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND MUSTANG RELATED WEBSITES. *TR

VEHICLE JUST DIES (ENGINE SHUTS OFF) WITH THE CLUTCH IN WHILE SLOWING TO A STOP. COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS AND MAKING TURNS, THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE LOCATED NEAR THE FRONT BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,000.

2015 FORD MUSTANG GT WAS IN AN ACCIDENT, WHERE I REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE FRONT END WAS PUSHED IN ABOUT 3-4 INCHES TO THE POINT WHERE THE DRIVERS DOOR NO LONGER OPENS AND THE HOOD NO LONGER CLOSES, THIS PROMPTED THE KNEE AIRBAGS TO GO OFF, DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG WENT OFF PERFECTLY FINE, HOWEVER DRIVER SIDE DEPLOYED ONLY HALF WAY (MORE LIKE 1/4) WHICH RENDERED IT DEFECTIVE. SPOKE TO 2 SEPARATE FORD DEALERSHIPS ABOUT IT AND WAS TOLD THEY DON'T KNOW HOW AN AIRBAG IS SUPPOSED TO WORK BECAUSE THEY DID NOT DESIGN IT. RECORDED THE SMALL CONVERSATION I HAD WITH THE FORD DEALERSHIP SERVICE REP, WAS SHORT BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T HELP ME, THEY JUST BASICALLY CUT ME OFF AND AS YOU CAN SEE THE AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY PROPERLY.

PURCHASED BRAND NEW FORD MUSTANG GT PREMIUM 5.0 AUTOMATIC FROM LOCAL FORD DEALER. ON FIRST TEST DRIVE, DID NOT NOTICE PROBLEM. CAR SAT A FEW DAYS PRIOR TO ME LEAVING FOR AN APPROXIMATE 750 MILE RETURN DRIVE HOME FROM VA TO TN. I HAD THE CAR HEATER ON - THE HEATER SEATS ON - NO MODIFICATIONS DONE TO THE CAR - 2 DAYS LATER OUT ON ROAD NOTICED A "STRONG ODOR" ( MORE SPECIFICALLY LIKE "MODEL AIRPLANE GLUE ODOR ). I WAS GETTING DIZZY, SLEEPY, AND VERY NAUSEATED. PULLED OVER RESTED. DROVE CAR WITH WINDOWS DOWN, HEATER ON AS IT WAS COLD. ODOR PERSISTED AND "SICK FEELING" CONTINUED ENTIRE DRIVE HOME. COORDINATING WITH FORD SERVICE CENTER AND BBBAUTOLINE - TOOK THE CAR IN FOR SUB TOTAL OF 5 VISITS TO HAVE ODOR EVALUATED. 6TH VISIT WITH "EXPERT FORD" FIELD TECH WITH SOME SORT OF "DEVICE" TO MEASURE SMELLS ( I ASSUME ) - WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP THE CAR - I ASKED FOR WORK ORDER AND A COPY OF EXPERT'S REPORT. WROTE TO SALES MANAGER REQUESTING THESE REPORTS. I HAVE BEEN DENIED ACCESS TO THESE REPORTS (KIND OF ODD? 6TH VISIT AND ONLY NOW THEY REFUSE TO ISSUE?) BBBAUTOLINE HAS NOW MADE DATE FOR ARBITRATION. TOLD TO BRING CAR IN FOR EVALUATION BY ARBITRATOR - HAVE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS AS TO WHY.NUMEROUS ARTICLES ADDRESSING TOXIC ODORS - MULTIPLE SENSITIVITY DISORDER.S I'M NOT A SCIENTIST OR AN ENGINEER. JUST A 61 YR OLD MAN WANTING TO ENJOY HIS $44K MUSTANG - CAN'T HAVE TO DRIVE WITH WINDOWS DOWN AND HEATER FULL UP, STILL FEEL LIGHT HEADED AND NAUSEA. ANY SUGGESTIONS APPRECIATED. *TR

BRAKES PROBLEMS.I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR TO WESTWAY FORD THREE TIMES THEY SAY IT'S UNDER INVESTIGATION. *TR

HTTP://WWW.MUSTANG6G.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=14267 VEHICLE EXHIBITED THE SOUND SHOWN IN THE VIDEO. IT TOOK AN INDEPENDENT SHOP TO DIAGNOSE AND FIND THE PROBLEM TO BE SHOWN IN THE TRANSMISSION BELLHOUSING OF THE MT82. DEALER FINALLY HEARD THE ISSUE AND SERVICE MANAGER ACKNOWLEDGED IT SOUNDED FROM THE TRANS, BUT NOW DEALER IS SAYING THE PROBLEM ISN'T OCCURRING. THEY HAVE FAILED TO FOLLOW MY INSTRUCTIONS ON REPRODUCING THE ISSUE. THIS COULD CAUSE A SEVERE TRANSMISSION FAILURE AND LOSS OF CONTROL BUT NO ATTEMPTS TO REMOVE THE TRANS TO INSPECT HAS BEEN DONE. *TR
