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!

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.

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.

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!!
