WATER POOLING BEHIND DRIVER SEAT ON FLOORBOARD. VERY STRONG CHEMICAL SMELL IN CAR. CONDENSATION INSIDE ALL WINDOWS EVERYDAY. CAR PARKED ON DRIVEWAY NEXT TO HOUSE. INITIALLY TAKEN TO DEALER ~1 YEAR AGO FOR ODOR (NO WATER YET). COULD NOT IDENTIFY PROBLEM, NOTHING DONE. TECHNICIAN DOING INSPECTION LAST WEEK THOUGHT IT WAS MOLD CAUSING THE OVERWHELMING SMELL AND THERE MUST BE A LEAK. TOOK TO DEALER FOLLOWING MONDAY.

When vehicle is placed in park while on, vehicle rolls forward . Put vehicle in park on the side of the road to answer a phone call. Was pulled up behind another vehicle and car rolled forward, and rear ended vehicle in front of me. The police were notified but no citation was given Another time vehicle was in park and running and ran over somebodies foot. very unacceptable

I was simply going up a slight hill and the wrench light turned on I lost power she still accelerated but sluggish and changing gears was sluggish too. Turned it off at the house made sure my CAI was good and the light is off. I see tons upon tons of people complaining about the wrench light and the throttlebody. No codes. Something is wrong with them I see people have trouble with 12k on their Throttle body. I wanted to go on here to say that I believe it is EXTREMELY dangerous for the issue to come and go especially on busy roads. The problem comes and goes without a trace. So dangerous it deserves a recall just like my airbag and the hundreds of thousands who reported it

ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL HAVE QUIT WORKING...

PARKED ON INCLINE ROLLED BACK INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE WITH EMERGENCY BRAKE APPLIED. TOOK PICTURES. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY

MY CAR IS AT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT PLANET FORD IN SPRING, TX. I NOTICED A SMELL OF GASOLINE AND TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR INSPECTION WHEN I HAD THE PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL DONE. I SPECIAL ORDERED THE VEHICLE IN THE SPRING OF 2009 THROUGH THEIR DEALERSHIP FROM FORD. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS VERY LOW MILEAGE, 28,000. THE SERVICE MANAGER INFORMED ME THAT THE GAS TANK IS COMING APART AT THE SEAM AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY $3000 TO REPLACE THE TANK. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER CARE WITH MY SAFETY CONCERNS AND REQUESTED THEY SEND A REPRESENTATIVE TO PLANET FORD TO INSPECT THE TANK FOR DEFECT AND WHAT MAY HAVE CAUSED IT. THEY TOLD ME THE FORD SERVICE MANAGER AT PLANET FORD WOULD HAVE TO DO THAT. WHEN I TOLD MY SERVICE REP AT PLANET FORD WHAT CUSTOMER CARE SAID, THE FORD REP/TECHNICIAN DENIED THAT THEY COULD DO THAT AND OFFERED ME KNOW FURTHER HELP WITH ESCALATING MY CONCERNS TO FORD. I WANT FORD TO SEE IF THERE WAS SOMETHING DIFFERENT WITH MY CUSTOM ORDER AT THEIR FACTORY THAT CAUSED IT? I WANT FORD TO COME AND SEE WHAT THEY BUILT AND SOLD ME AND TO NOTE THE SAFETY HAZARDS TO MY LIFE. I UNDERSTAND IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY. IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME THAT THE SHRAPNEL IN THEIR DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS WERE MORE IMPORTANT TO THEM THAN A DEFECTIVE GAS TANK THAT'S COMING APART AT THE SEAM AND OFF-GASSING BADLY. THE GAS FUMES ARE VERY TOXIC AND VOLATILE AND COULD CAUSE AN EXPLOSION OR GIVE ME CANCER. FOR THE LONGEST TIME, I THOUGHT THE FUMES WERE NORMAL, SINCE THAT MUSTANG HAS THE CAP-LESS GAS TANK AND I WAS ASSOCIATING THE ODOR NEAR THE REAR AREA WHERE I FILLED-UP. IT TOOK FRIENDS AND FAMILY TELLING ME 'NO, THAT SMELL IS NOT NORMAL." AND THAT IT URGENTLY NEEDS TO BE ASSESSED.

WHEN DRIVING ENGINE REVED UP THEN WHEN TRYING TO TURN LEFT ACROSS ROAD GAS PEDAL WOULD NOT WORK. APPARENTLY THEY HAVE AN ACCELORATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR AND IT WENT BAD. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A FATAL ACCIDENT BY NOT BEING ABLE TO GET OUT OF MOVING TRAFFIC BY GAS PEDAL SUDDENLY QUITTING TO WORK. THEY SHOULDNT BE ALLOWED TO USE THESE DUE TO SERIOUS. ATURE OF HOW THEY SUDDENLY WITHOUT. ORICE QUIT WORKS G WHILE DRIVING. I WAS ON A FOUR LANE HIGHWY TRYING TO TURN OFF ON THE SIDE THAT CROSSED TWO LANES AND CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING ABRUPTLY WHEN I TURNED AND WOULD. OT ACCELERATE WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC.

IN DECEMBER 2018 MY CAR BEGAN TO MAKE CRUNCHING, SQUEAKING AND CHIRPING SOUNDS COMING FROM THE FRONT SUSPENSION WHEN DRIVING SLOWLY OVER UNEVEN SURFACES, SMALL CRACKS IN ROAD, GOING SLOWLY OVER SPEED BUMPS OR UP DRIVEWAY RAMPS. THERE IS ALSO A NOTICEABLE SHIMMY IN THE STEERING WHEEL AT OVER 30 MPH. IN JANUARY, MY FORD SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME I NEED TO REPLACE BOTH FRONT CONTROL ARM ASSEMBLIES FOR APPROX $1,700 WHICH COMES AS A HUGE SHOCK TO ME CONSIDERING MY CAR HAS ONLY 14,000 MILES ON IT!!! I WENT HOME TO DO SOME RESEARCH FOUND A TSB FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARMS WITH A RE-DESIGNED CONTROL ARM WITH UPGRADED BALL POINT SHAFT AND HYDRO-BUSHING. TSB# 09-24-16 LINK: HTTPS://LATEMODEL.CACHEFLY.NET/DOWNLOADS/TSB05-14/TSB09-24-16.PDF THERE ARE LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ON WEBSITES AND BLOGS ACROSS THE INTERNET WRITTEN BY OTHER MUSTANG OWNERS WHO HAVE FACED THE SAME PROBLEM AND HAD TO FIND LESS COSTLY AND POSSIBLY DANGEROUS AFTERMARKET SOLUTIONS. APPARENTLY FORD HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS DEFECT SINCE 12/2009, HAS ENGINEERED UPGRADED REPLACEMENT PARTS AND YET HAS NOT MOVED TO PROACTIVELY REPLACE THESE DANGEROUS SUSPENSION/STEERING PARTS SINCE THEN. APPARENTLY, THEY ARE WAITING UNTIL A CUSTOMER COMES IN WITH A COMPLAINT TO NOTIFY THEM! A DRIVER COULD REASONABLY THINK THIS OFFENDING SOUND IS JUST A NATURAL SQUEAK ON AN AGING CAR AND CHOOSE TO IGNORE IT UNTIL THE THIN ORIGINAL BALL JOINT SHAFT GIVES WAY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT OR EVEN A FATALITY. I'VE ALREADY SPOKEN WITH FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE SUPERVISORS AND THE FORD DEALER WHO BOTH SAY THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT HAVING FORD FIX THIS WITHOUT PUTTING THE FULL COST AND BURDEN ON THE CUSTOMER. THIS IS A TERRIFIC OPPORTUNITY FOR NHTSA TO COMPEL FORD TO GET THESE DANGEROUS PARTS OFF THE MANY CARS STILL OPERATING WITH THESE ADMITTEDLY SUBSTANDARD PARTS. THANK YOU

NEAR MISS - CAR PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND I INSTINCTIVELY HIT THE BREAKS AND PASSENGER SEAT BELT LOCKED UP AND WOULDN'T RELEASE CAUSING PASSENGER DISCOMFORT AND UNABLE TO BREATH, WAS UNABLE TO RELEASE SEAT BELT SO HAD TO CUT OFF . THIS IS A 2010 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE WITH LESS THAN 50,000 MILES . CONTACTED DEALER AND SAID THAT THE SEAT BELT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY! IT WOULD BE $300 + LABOR ?? LOOKED ONLINE AND IT SEEMS THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM! FORD NEEDS TO RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM! *TR

MY ENTIRE REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAD TO BE REBUILD. MY ABS MODULE HAD TO BE REPLACED AS SOON AS THE CAR WENT OUT OF WARRANTY. AT LEAST ONE WHEEL BEARING HAD TO BE REPLACED. POOR TIRE WEAR WAS A RESULT OF THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILING AND POOR QUALITY TIRES. ALL FOUR TIRES WERE REPLACED AT 35,000 MILES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOULD MAKE A GRINDING NOISE WHEN SHIFTING GEARS TO FIRST AND FOURTH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE PIN AND SHIFTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION, THE SOLENOID, AND MAIN COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 19,563.

I HAVE A 2010 FORD MUSTANG GT COUPE AND HAD TO HAVE MY FRONT WINDSHIELD REPLACED BECAUSE IT GOT DAMAGED. I HAD A NEW OEM WINDSHIELD INSTALLED BY SAFELITE GLASS WHO INSTALLED A CARLITE WINDSHIELD AND THE DISTORTION AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE WINDOW IS VERY BAD. EVERYTHING LOOKS CURVY AND MAGNIFIED WHEN I SEE OUT OF THAT PART OF THE GLASS. REALIZE I SIT VERY LOW IN THE MUSTANG AND ACTUALLY SEE A LOT THROUGH THE BOTTOM 2 INCHES AND LEFT 2 INCHES. SAFELITE BROUGHT 5 DIFFERENT CARLITE WINDSHIELDS AND THEY ALL HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. MY INSURANCE COMPANY SAID I COULD USE SOMEONE ELSE SO I WENT TO JN PHILLIPS AND THEY HAD A COUPLE OF CARLITE WINDSHIELDS IN STOCK FOR MY MUSTANG AND THEY TOO WERE DISTORTED. THE GLASS TECHNICIAN THERE EVEN CONFIRMED IT. I AM BEING TOLD THAT IS THE ONLY GLASS I CAN GET FOR MY MUSTANG AND EVERYWHERE THEY CHECKED HAD DISTORTED GLASS. THE DOT NUMBER OF ALL THE WINDSHIELDS THAT HAVE BEEN DELIVERED TO ME ALREADY (6 WINDSHIELDS NOW) ARE ALL 287. JN PHILIPS CALLED ALL AROUND AND ALL THAT IS AROUND IS DOT 287 GLASS WITH THE SAME DISTORTION. I WILL NOT ACCEPT HAVING TO LIVE WITH AN INFERIOR WINDSHIELD LIKE THIS. NOONE FROM FORD OR CARLITE HAS HELPED ME WITH THIS PROBLEM AS I HAVE CONTACTED THEM SEVERAL TIMES. THIS WINDSHIELD IS VERY DANGEROUS TO ME AND DEFINITELY IMPAIRS MY VISION AND IS CAUSING ME TO CONSTANTLY BRAKE AND SWERVE BECAUSE OF THE DISTORTION. I FEEL IT IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD AND I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THESE WINDSHIELDS WERE ALLOWED TO GO OUT TO THE PUBLIC. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT. *TR

FLICKER EFFECT! THIS NEEDS ACTION NOW; THE OPERATING FREQUENCY ON SOME VEHICLES DID NOT CONSIDER HUMAN FACTORS. THE OPERATING FREQUENCY NEEDS TO BE ABOVE 3000 HERTZ, THIS NEEDS A RECALL TO CORRECT THIS ON ALL VEHICLES THAT DO NOT CONFORM. THE CHOICE OF FLICKER FUSION THRESHOLD OPERATING FREQUENCY IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED OR MAYBE IT ALREADY HAS! WHAT IS NEEDED: RECALL ALL DELENATORS, ROAD SIDE SIGNS, SIGNAL LIGHTS AND VEHICLES THAT USE PWM "PULSE WIDTH MODULATION". AND ARE OPERATING BELOW 3000 HERTZ!! SET A STANDARD FOR THIS!!! *TR

THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS SAY ON FULL INTENSITY (THE SAME INTENSITY AS IF BRAKING). WHEN THE IGNITION IS OFF, THE TAIL LIGHTS REMAIN ON FULL INTENSITY. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE LIGHT INTENSITY REMAINS ON FULL WITH NO CHANGE. THEY DO NOT TURN OFF. HOWEVER, THE LIGHTS RESPOND PROPERLY TO THE TURN SIGNALS (SAME LIGHTS USED), BY SEQUENTIALLY ALTERNATING INSIDE LIGHT "TRAVELING" TO THE OUTSIDE, AS THE MUSTANG TAIL LIGHTS ARE A THREE LIGHT SEQUENCE ON EACH SIDE, LEFT AND RIGHT. THE PASSENGER FLOORBOARD CARPETING IS WET AND THE WIRES LEADING INTO THE SMART JUNCTION BOX ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE ARE WET. THE AREA HAS HAD RAINFALL RECENTLY AND I HAD TAKEN THE CAR INTO AN ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY CAR WASH. IT HAS BEEN SAID BY SOME THAT THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW IN THE S-197 MUSTANG DESIGN, WHERE THE LEAKS OCCUR DUE TO CLOGS IN DRAINAGE, BUT FORD REPRESENTATIVES WILL NOT TAKE STEPS TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITHOUT A RECALL ORDER (POSTED ON MORE THAN ONE WEBSITE). FORD WILL ALSO NOT ADVISE CONSUMERS ON AN ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION WHICH WE CAN TAKE, INSTEAD CHOOSING TO REPLACE SMART JUNCTION BOXES COSTING OVER $500 AT A DEALER, WITH ANOTHER $500 TO PROGRAM AND INSTALL, WHICH ELECTRICALLY SHORT, INSTEAD OF A $20 KIT IN THE FORM OF NEW SEALS TO PREVENT THE PROBLEM. I FEAR AN ELECTRICAL SHORT WHILE DRIVING, EVEN A 12V CURRENT AT A HIGH AMPERAGE CAN CAUSE MEDICAL PROBLEMS, OR A COMPLETE ELECTRICAL FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. NOT ONLY THAT, THE BRAKE LIGHT BEING ON PREVENTS THE CAR FROM BEING DRIVEN SAFELY UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WHICH REQUIRE WORKING BRAKE LIGHTS IN OUR TRANSPORTATION CODE. THIS CAR NO LONGER CAN PASS THE STATE OF TEXAS ANNUAL SAFETY INSPECTION CRITERIA WITHOUT A SMART JUNCTION BOX REPLACEMENT, WHICH ON THIS CAR IS DUE BY NOVEMBER 1, 2013. *TR

LED USE IS MISSING THE APPROPRIATE LEVEL OF RIGGER FOR CORRECT HUMAN FACTORS! THE OPERATING FREQUENCIES OF PWM (PULSE WIDTH MODULATION) LED'S (LIGHT EMITTING DIODE) IS TO LOW FOR SOME VIEWERS! THIS IS A VERY REAL CONDITION KNOWN AS FLICKER FUSION OR CRITICAL FUSION FREQUENCY AND DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME EFFECT ON ALL VIEWERS. THE LAMPS LOOK AS IF THEY ARE ALL OVER THE ROADWAY AND COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL! IT IS JUST ABOUT IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT DUE TO THIS!!!! ALL MANUFACTURES USING LED'S OR OTHER FAST RESPONSE LAMPS NEED TO CONSIDER HUMAN FACTORS, THE OPERATING FREQUENCY IS CRITICAL AND NEEDS TO BE OVER 3000 HERTZ (CYCLES PER SECOND). THIS LACK OF CONTROL HAS PUT PROBABLE 10% OF THE DRIVERS AND PILOTS ARE AT RISK! A RECALL IS NEEDED TO FIX THIS TRAVESTY THAT IS OUT OF CONTROL. IT STARTED WITH CADILLAC'S SRX AROUND 2000, NOW IN 2010+ FORD, 2010+ MERCEDES AND VOLKSWAGEN HAVE GONE OVERBOARD AND JUST ABOUT ALL THE VEHICLES THEY BUILD ARE OPERATING AT THIS DANGEROUS AND VERY DEADLY OPERATING FREQUENCY. THE OPERATING FREQUENCY NEEDS TO BE >2500 HERTZ! THE USE OF PWM IS NOT THE PROBLEM IT'S THE OPERATING FREQUENCY! ALL MANUFACTURES THAT USE PWM NEED TO CONSIDER HUMAN FACTORS! *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO PART AVAILABILITY DATE FOR THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

WAS GETTING A SHUTTER FEEL WHILE DRIVING. SAM PACK FORD REPLACED POWER STEERING PUMP, POWER STEERING RESERVOIR AND POWER STEERING HOSE ASSEMBLY TO FIX PROBLEM. MY BE OF CONCERN FOR OTHER MUSTANG OWNERS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD MUSTANG EQUIPPED WITH GOODYEAR EAGLE TIRES, SIZE: P215/60R17 (NA). SOON AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, ALL THE TIRES WERE FOUND TO BE DRY ROTTED. THE TIRES ALSO BEGAN TO PEEL AND CRACK. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THE TIRES REPAIRED. THEY VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO CARMAX KEARNY MESA (7766 BALBOA AVE, SAN DIEGO, CA 92111, (858) 712-6486 WHERE THE MECHANICS AGREED TO SERVICE THE TIRES. WHEN THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK, THE DEALER REFUSED TO REPAIR THE TIRES BECAUSE CHUNKS OF THE TIRES WERE NOT FALLING OFF. THE TIRES WERE NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN AND DOT NUMBER WERE UNKNOWN. THE TIRE AND VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,708.

I PURCHASED A 2010 FORD MUSTANG (VIN: [XXX] ) IN APRIL OF 2009. THIS VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED WITH PIRELLI PZERO NERO TIRES THAT WERE MANUFACTURED IN NOVEMBER OF 2008. IN APRIL 2010, I NOTICED CRACKS IN THE RUBBER IN BETWEEN THE TREAD RIBS ON ALL 4 TIRES. THESE TIRES HAD ~17K MILES ON THEM AND WERE 1 YEARS OLD. I CAN PROVIDE PICTURES UPON REQUEST. I AM REPORTING THIS PROBLEM SINCE I BELIEVE THAT IT COULD POTENTIALLY BE A SAFETY HAZARD AND IT OCCURRED DURING NORMAL TIRE OWNERSHIP. SINCE ALL 4 TIRES EXHIBITED THIS PROBLEM, I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS IS AN ISOLATED CASE AND THERE COULD BE OTHER OWNERS THAT ARE UNKNOWINGLY AT RISK.
