2007 Ford Mustang complaints

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, HE PUSHED THE LATCH ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT TO SLIDE IT FORWARD AND THE LATCH BROKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE IT WAS REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,812.

THE REAR DEFROST ON MY 2007 MUSTANG GT CONVERTIBLE IS DANGLING FROM THE REAR WINDOW. IT WILL NOT WORK OR DEFROST, CAUSING VISIBILITY PROBLEMS. HAD IT REPAIRED AT DEALERSHIP AND IT CAME LOOSE AGAIN, THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE TOP TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND WENT TO THE FLOOR. HAD THE MUSTANG TOWED TO LOCAL DEALER. THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES OVER A THREE DAY PERIOD. OCT 1ST ANOTHER BRAKE FAILURE WITH PEDAL GOING ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR. DROVE SLOWLY TO DEALER. SERVICE WRITER PRESSED BRAKE AND IT WENT TO FLOOR. HE RELATED THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH 04 AND 07 MUSTANGS. ITS IN THE SHOP FOR MASTER CYLINDER REPLACEMENT. NEEDS A SAFETY BULLETIN ON THIS FROM FORD. *TR

PAINT IS PEELING OFF THE HOOD OF MY 2007 FORD MUSTANG. I NOTICED THE 06-07 MUSTANGS HAVE A SIMILAR PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER IT IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE AN ALUMINUM HOOD. THESE CARS SHOULD BE RECALLED, AND THE HOOD SHOULD BE PAINTED FOR FREE BECAUSE PAINT SHOULD LAST LONGER THAN THREE YEARS. *TR

I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH AFTER MY ACCELERATOR GOT STUCK ON A 2007 FORD MUSTANG V6. I HAD JUST LEFT MY HOUSE WHEN I SLOWLY ACCELERATED AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE PEDAL GOT STUCK AND WAS UNABLE TO STOP UNTIL I CRASHED INTO A NEIGHBOR'S ROCK WALL. ALTHOUGH THE IMPACT WAS HARD I SUFFERED MINOR INJURIES FROM THE AIR BAG, OTHER THAN THAT I AM LUCKY TO HAVE SURVIVED. I WAS THE SCARIEST THING I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 FORD MUSTANG (V6) ON THE HIGHWAY (RT 202-PA) WHEN THE "LOW TIRE PRESSURE" INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OFF AT THE FIRST AVAILABLE EXIT (CHESTERBROOK BLVD) AND WHEN I TURNED ONTO THE OVER PASS MY REAR PASSENGER TIRE EXPLODED LEAVING THE RIM COMPLETELY EXPOSED. HAD THE CAR TOWED (POLICE CAME BECAUSE CAR WAS IN DANGEROUS SPOT) AND CHANGED THE TIRE. APPROX 6 HOURS LATER I CHECKED THE PRESSURE IN ALL OF THE TIRES (WAS WITHIN LIMITS) AND SET OFF HOME ON PA TURNPIKE. 2 MILES ON THE TURNPIKE MY DRIVERS FRONT WHEEL WENT COMPLETELY FLAT. HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO MY HOME. ALL THE TIRES STEM VALVES ON MY FACTORY INSTALLED PIRELLI P ZERO NERO TIRES WERE ROTTEN (ALL EXCEPT MY REAR DRIVER WHEEL WHICH WAS REPLACED DUE TO A SEPARATE FLAT APPROX 6 MOTHS PRIOR). PER CONSUMER REPORTS WEBSITE, THE TIRE STEM VALVES WERE RECALLED. (08TR414030). I HAVE THE 3 VALVES IN MY POSSESSION. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED ABOUT THE RECALL. I REMEMBER THE NEWS OF THE ROLLOVER DEATHS IN 2008. THE FORD SERVICE SHOP I TOOK THE CAR TO (TOM MASANO FORD, READING, PA) DENIED KNOWLEDGE OF THE DEFECT OR RECALL. BLAMED IT ON AN IMPACT OR "DRIVING THE CAR THROUGH SOMETHING DEEP". I WOUND UP GETTING ALL OF MY TIRES REPLACE AT PEP BOYS. (I HAVE THE TIRE DOT AND VIN BUT DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THEM AT THE MOMENT. I CAN PROVIDE IF CONTACTED.) *TR

2007 CONVERTIBLE MUSTANG. THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE DEFROSTER TAB HAS COME OFF OF THE GLASS, I DO NOT HAVE A REAR DEFROSTER WITH THIS PART NOT WORKING. MY CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY AND FORD IS REFUSING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS NOT JUST MY CAR BUT HAS BEEN AS ISSUE SINCE 2004. ELECTRICAL & LIGHTS: VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER SYSTEM:REAR WINDOW SERVICE BULLETIN NUMBER: 4189 NHTSA NUMBER: 10014062 MODEL YEARS AFFECTED: 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 DATE OF BULLETIN: 04/2005 BULLETIN SUMMARY: REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER GRID/INTEGRAL ANTENNA DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR - TERMINAL TAB REPAIR.

TL* CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THE SHIFT COVER OR TRACKING FRACTURED AND THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE. THE FAILURE WAS REPAIRED FOUR TIMES BUT CONTINUED TO RECUR. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED AN INVESTIGATOR WOULD BE SENT TO FURTHER INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,850.

FAULTY VALVE STEM ON 2007 MUSTANG GT. HAD LOW AIR PRESSURE MONITOR COME ON. INSPECTED TIRE AND SAW THAT MY VALVE STEM WAS CRACKED AT THE BASE. THIS IS THE SECOND ONE ON THIS CAR. THESE ARE THE ORIGINAL TIRES. *TR

I RECENTLY SAW THE REPORT CONCERNING THE FORD GAS PEDALS BEING STUCK BY THE FLOORMAT. I OWN A 2007 FORD MUSTANG AND HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ON AT LEAST 5 OCCASIONS. *TR

SIMILAR TO THE 2010 FUSION PROBLEM OF STUCK ACCELERATOR, I HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THE 2007 FORD MUSTANG GT. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED EVER SINCE I RECEIVED THE MATS IN JUNE OF 2007 AND HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES! THE ALL-WEATHER MAT IS SITTING ON TOP OF THE STANDARD MAT AND SLIPS FORWARD. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS DEPRESSED FULLY, IT DOES GET STUCK UNDER THE ALL-WEATHER MAT. IN ONE INCIDENT, I WAS ON A FREEWAY GOING TO PASS A VEHICLE. WHEN I FLOORED THE ACCELERATOR, IT STUCK! IN A MUSTANG, YOU CAN IMAGINE THE AMOUNT OF ACCELERATION INVOLVED AND I WAS UP OVER 120MPH IN SECONDS! I HAD TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE TO BEGIN DECELERATION. FRIGHTENING! *TR

I HAVE AN 07 FORD MUSTANG GT. IT HAS A LITTLE OVER 18000 MILES ON IT AND THE THROTTLE HAS STUCK SEVERAL TIMES. I PRESS THE BRAKE AND REACH DOWN AND PULL UP THE PEDAL. THE DEALER FIRST TRIED TO TELL ME IT WAS THE FLOOR MAT. IT IS NOT, THE FLOOR MAT DOES NOT COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE PEDAL. THROUGH A BBB ARBITRATION FORD WAS TOLD TO REPLACE THE VEHICLE. THE SECOND VEHICLE DOES THE SAME THING. WHEN PRESSED TO THE FLOOR THE PEDAL STICKS AND THE CAR CONTINUES TO ACCELERATE. IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM THAT THE DEALER CANNOT REPLICATE, SO THEY CANNOT FIX IT. I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH FAST REFLEXES AND SHORT LEGS SO I CAN HOLD THE BRAKE ON AND PULL UP THE GAS PEDAL WHILE KEEPING CONTROL OF THE CAR. THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS GIVEN UP TRYING TO REPAIR IT. THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. THE PROBLEM STILL REMAINS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE POWER STEERING FAILED AND ALL WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASHBOARD. THE CONTACT ALSO OBSERVED SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND MOVED THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROADWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALER WHERE HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE HARMONIC BALANCER HAD BROKEN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 75,000.

I HOPE FORD JUMPS ON THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. 2007 FORD MUSTANG. 03/18/2010 DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY ACCELERATOR STICKS, HIT BRAKE DOES NOT STOP OR DISENGAGE; TAP PEDAL DOES NOT DISENGAGE SPEEDS UP MORE STILL STUCK, KILL IGNITION CAR STILL IN DRIVE, SLIP TRANSMISSION TO NEUTRAL AND BROUGHT CAR TO FULL STOP. PEDAL STILL STUCK UNTIL CAR PUT IN GEAR. STILL SCARED TO DRIVE CAR TO FORD HOUSE. IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS WITH OTHER FORD VEHICLES PLEASE POST, WE NEED TO BRING THIS TO FORD CORPORATE ATTENTION QUICK. *TR

TL- THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 3 MPH IN A DRIVE THRU LANE. THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT RESISTANCE WHEN PRESSURE WAS APPLIED. THE DRIVER PUMPED THE BRAKES NUMEROUS TIMES. THE GEAR SELECTOR WAS PLACED INTO "NEUTRAL"; THEN SHIFTED INTO THE "PARK" POSITION. IMMEDIATELY, THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE VEHICLE RESUMED WITH THE LOSS OF BRAKE POWER. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS ENGAGED WHILE PUMPING THE BRAKE PEDAL, FOLLOWED BY A POWER RESPONSE. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE IN NORMAL OPERATION TO THE RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN DUE TO THE POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD. THE AUTHORIZED DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEE REPAIRED FOR THE MALFUNCTION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,300. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE JS

2007 FORD MUSTANG-V-6, THE SECTION JUNCTION BOXES AND COMPUTER,WIRING HARNESSES HAVE LEAKS THAT ARE CAUSED BY A KNOWN FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF GROMMETS FROM THE DOOR AND DRAIN HOLES WHICH DRIP INTO AND SHORT OUT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS AND LIGHTS AND ABS COMPONENTS. ALL LIGHTS GO OUT. ALL INSIDE INSTRUMENTS SHUT DOWN. 800.00 TO REPAIR. FORD HAS A TSB BUT WILL NOT ASSIST. IT CAUSES MAJOR PROBLEMS REAR DEFROSTER AND WIPERS. ALOT OF 2005-2009 MUSTANGS HAVE THE SAME OR WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS. I DID NOT HAVE ANY BRAKE LIGHTS, OR TURN SIGNALS. I HAD PEOPLE RUN INTO THE BACK BECAUSE THEY DID NOT SEE MY SIGNALS. WHICH QUIT WORKING TOTALLY. I DID NOT KNOW. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THIS 2007 FORD MUSTANG ON 2/13/2010, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL STUCK AT FULL THROTTLE. STAYED STUCK FOR 3-5 SECONDS. CAR WAS GOING IN EXCESS OF 80MPH. BEFORE IT RELEASED. I AM A VERY EXPERIENCED DRIVER, AND FEEL THAT THIS COULD OF BEEN A VERY BAD SITUATION IF SOMEONE LESS EXPERIENCED WAS DRIVING. *TR

WATER LEAK ON PASSENGER SIDE UNDER DASH, SOAKING CARPET, 1ST INCIDENT BUT AFTER INVESTIGATING FURTHER I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE, COULD LEAD TO ELECTRICAL FAILURE. WHY ISN'T IT REQUIRED TO SUPPLY THE PURCHASER OF VEHICLE ANY TSB THAT HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR SAID VEHICLE. I COULD HAVE POSSIBLY PREVENTED THIS IF I HAD BEEN MADE AWARE OF THE POTENTIAL PROBLEM. THE RELEASE OF ANY TSB SHOULD BE MANDATORY!!!! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A WATER LEAK ABOVE THE FUSE BOX ON THE PASSENGER SIDE UNDER THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT. SHE NOTICED THE LEAK WHENEVER IT RAINED. SHE HEARD A DRIPPING NOISE WHEN SHE WAS ACCELERATING AND NOTICED THAT THE WATER WAS LEAKING ONTO THE FLOORBOARD. SHE HAS NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER PRIOR TO FILING THE COMPLAINT. SHE CALLED THE MANUFACTURER BUT WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST HER. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 37,800. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 37,760. UPDATED 02/13/10 *BF UPDATED 02/16/10.*JB UPDATED 2/17/10 *CN THE CONSUMER STATED THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. UPDATED 02/22/10.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. AFTER IT RAINED OR WAS TAKEN THROUGH A CAR WASH, WATER WOULD FLOOD THE VEHICLE. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP ON THREE OCCASIONS AND THE VEHICLE WAS SEALED WITH SILICONE, AND THE CARPETS AND WINDSHIELD WERE REPLACED TWICE. THE SEALANTS AROUND THE WINDOW, THE FIREWALL, THE REAR WELL, PASSENGER DOOR TRIM PANEL AND MANY OTHER PARTS OF THE VEHICLE WERE COMMON PLACES OF WATER INTRUSION. THE MANUFACTURER SENT A SERVICE ENGINEER TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS SEALED. NONE OF THE REPAIRS HAVE REMEDIED THE FAILURE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 21,500. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,273. UPDATED 01/25/10 *BF UPADTED 01/26/10.*JB

I OWN A 2007 MUSTANG AND EVERYTIME I FUEL UP, IT ONLY ALLOWED ME TO PUT 1/2 TO 2/4 TANK FULL AND THEY IS SHUTS OFF THE GAS PUMP. I HAVE TAKE THE CAR TO MY LOCAL DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT AND TO ADVISED TO TRY DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. THIS IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW IN DEC OF 2007. *TR

WHILE EXECUTING A LEFT TURN ACROSS A SIX-LANE INTERSECTION, I NOTICED ANOTHER VEHICLE APPROACHING THE LEFT SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AT A SPEED OF AT LEAST DOUBLE THE LIMIT. I ACCELERATED HARD TO GET OUT OF THE WAY. THE THROTTLE "STUCK" FOR AN ESTIMATED TWO TO THREE SECONDS WHICH CAUSED LOSS OF CONTROL AND IMPACT WITH A FOOT HIGH CURB AT THE FAR SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION. DAMAGE TO MY CAR WAS OVER $8,000.00. THERE HAVE BEEN NO REPEAT EPISODES TO THIS DATE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT CONTROL PANEL. HE THEN ADDED AIR TO THE TIRE, BUT BY THE END OF THE DAY ALL OF THE AIR WAS RELEASED OUT OF THE TIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL REPAIR FACILITY. THE MECHANIC REPLACED A DEFECTIVE VALVE STEM. HE THEN RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE REGARDING THE VALVE STEMS , BUT A TECHNICIAN STATED THAT NO REPAIRS COULD BE PERFORMED UNTIL THE VALVE STEMS FAILED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 24,900. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,500.

CAR IS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG GT CONVERTIBLE WITH 19,500 MILES. I HAVE NOTICED THAT RECENTLY THE CAR NO LONGER TRACKS PROPERLY, AND TENDS TO PULL TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT WITH UNEVENNESS IN THE PAVEMENT. WHEN BROUGHT IN TO DEALER FOR REGULAR SERVICE, WAS INFORMED THAT BOTH FRONT LOWER BALL JOINTS ARE LOOSE. I HAVE RESEARCHED AROUND THE WEB AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS APPEARS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS. CAR IS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY DESPITE ITS LOW MILEAGE. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR MAT/RUG ON MY 2007 MUSTANG WAS NOT LOCKED UNDER THE TAB ON THE FLOOR. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. BECAUSE THE MAT SLIDES FORWARD IT INTERFERES WITH THE GAS/ACCELERATOR PEDAL CAUSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO NOT RETURN AND ALLOW DE-ACCELERATION/SLOWING DOWN. I TOOK THE MUSTANG TO A LOCAL DEALER TO HAVE THE SYSTEM CHECKED. THEIR CONCLUSION WAS THE FLOOR MAT/RUG CAUSED THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT MUST BE LOCKED UNDER THE TAB TO PREVENT IT FROM SLIDING FORWARD AND INTERFERING WITH THE PEDAL. I BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM IS THE SAME AS WITH THE RECENT TOYOTA PROBLEM?? I BELIEVE A SAFETY NOTICE TO ALL OWNERS IS IN ORDER TO HELP PREVENT THIS TYPE OF POTENTIAL FOR A SERIOUS VEHICULAR ACCIDENT. *TR

MANY FORD MUSTANGS 2005-2009 ARE EXPERIENCING WATER LEAKS. THE WATER DRAINS FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD ONTO THE PASSENGER'S FEET. DURING RAIN STORMS, THE WATER SATURATES THE RUG AREA UNLESS YOU HAVE A TOWEL. UNDER THE DASHBOARD, WET WIRES CAN BE SEEN. FOR SOME REASON, FORD WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A 2006 TSB ON THIS VERY ISSUE. TO STOP THE "FLOOD", CONSUMERS ARE FORCED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS OUT OF THEIR OWN POCKET. PLEASE SEARCH THE INTERNET TO READ ALL THE COMPLAINTS. THE FEW MUSTANGS OWNERS WHO DO NOT EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM TEND TO GARAGE THE CARS AND ONLY DRIVE THEM IN NICE WEATHER. PLEASE HOLD FORD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS OBVIOUS MANUFACTURING DEFECT BY FORCING A RECALL AND 100% REIMBURSEMENT FOR THOSE WHO ALREADY PAID TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR THANK YOU.

I OWN A 2007 MUSTANG GT AND HAVE HAD TWO FLAT TIRES DUE TO VALVE STEM FAILURES. THE FIRST BROKEN VALVE STEM OCCURRED ON JUNE 13, 2009. I ASSUMED THAT IT WAS A FLUKE THAT THE VALVE STEM BROKE, BUT TODAY I HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN AGAIN. LUCKILY BOTH FLAT TIRES HAVE HAPPENED WHEN I WAS TRAVELING UNDER 55 MPH. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A ACCIDENT IF I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE DRIVING AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED. *TR

MY CALIPER BROKE ON MY DRIVERS SIDE BACK WHEEL.....MECHANIC SAID IT WAS UNUSUAL FOR THE YEAR AND HE ALSO HAD ANOTHER ONE WITH EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND SAME EXACT SIDE AND WHEEL HE THOUGHT THAT WAS UNUSUAL. *TR

I DRIVE A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. AT 7:00 AM ON MY WAY TO WORK MY CAR DECIDED TO TURN INTO CHRISTIENE. : -). THE THROTTLE BODY OR THE ACCELERATOR DECIDED TO STICK. THE RPM'S WERE RACING. I BURNT UP THE BACK BRAKE PADS AND THE ROTORS, OF TRYING TO GET THE CAR TO SLOW DOWN. I EVEN TRIED GEARING THE MUSTANG DOWN. WHEN I FINALLY GOT TO A SAFE SPOT, I THEN TURN OFF THE IGNITION. I STARTED IT UP TO IF SITTING AND RESETTING THE COMPUTER WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR AND THE PROBLEM STARTED AGAIN. I STARTED THE CAR THREE TIMES AND I GOT THE SAME RESPONSE. AFTER SETTING FOR A HOUR AND A HALF I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR AGAIN. IT WAS FINE. I DID IMMED. TOOK IT TO A NEAR BY FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM HOOK IT TO A COMPUTER. THEY SAID, "IT SHOW WERE THE RPM WERE RACING, BUT THERE WAS ISSUE SHOWING UP." THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT THEY COULD NOT GET THIS ISSUE TO HAPPEN AGAIN WHILE THEY HAD IT AND THAT THEY COULD NOT PROMISE ME THAT THIS ISSUE WOULD NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. I HAVE SPOKEN TO A CO-WORKER AND HE HAS A 2006 MUSTANG AND HE SAID THAT HIS ACCELERATOR DONE THE SAME TO HIM. I DRIVE FOR A LIVING (A SCHOOL BUS) AND I SELDOM GET SCARED, BUT AFTER THAT MORNING I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY MUSTANG AND NEVER HAD SOMETHING TO SCARE ME AS BAD. I BELIEVE WITH OUT MY DRIVING SKILLS I COULD HAVE HAD A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. *TR

2007 FORD MUSTANG RECALL NOTICE ABOUT THE TIRE VALVE STEM BEING RECALLED DUE TO CRACKING. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TOOK ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND LOOKED AT THE VALVE STEMS AND SAID THEY WERE FINE. FEW WEEKS LATER WE GOT A LOW TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR WARNING. WENT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THE RIGHT REAR TIRE JUST HAD LOW AIR PRESSURE, THEY PUT AIR IN IT AND CHARGED FOR THEIR INSPECTION? THE NEXT DAY THE LIGHT WAS BACK ON....WENT BACK TO DEALER, THEY SAID THE SENSOR IS UNRELIABLE AND THEY SEE NOTHING WRONG SO WE HAD THEM BALANCE AND ROTATE THE TIRES. OCT 4TH DRIVING 65 MPH DOWN I-20 RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT; ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF CAR, RAN OUT ACROSS THE GRASS TO GET THE VEHICLE STOPPED AND UNDER CONTROL. TOOK THE TIRE TO THE DEALER THE NEXT MORNING; THEY SAY IS BLEW BECAUSE IT WAS LOW IN AIR??? NO LOW PRESSURE LIGHT? THEY ALREADY WORKED ON THE SAME TIRE 3 TIMES...THEY STILL REFUSE. TOOK TIRE TO A TIRE STORE: FACTS ARE: TIRE VALVE STEM IS CRACKED AND WAS ON THE RECALL, AIR LEAKED OUT SUDDENLY AND THE TIRE EXPLODED! THEY ALSO MOUNTED WEIGHTS ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE MAGS WHEN THEY BALANCED THE TIRE, ONE WEIGHT WAS ACTUALLY DUG DOWN INTO THE RUBBER, ALSO, POSSIBLY CAUSING THE AIR LEAK. WE HAD ALL VALVE STEMS REPLACED, ALL FOUR WERE CRACKED AND WE FOUND OUT THE ONLY WAY TO TRULY INSPECT THEM WAS TO REMOVE THE TIRE OFF THE RIM WHICH THE DEALERSHIP NEVER DID DO. WE ARE OUT $275 FOR TWO TIRES, VALVE STEM REPLACEMENTS, BALANCING AND THE LABOR FOR ALL THIS THAT SHOULD HAVE

1) THE BRAKES WERE SQUEALING AND A GRINDING SOUND AND THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP AT A SAFE DISTANCE. 2) IT STARTED AFTER THE CAR HAD 20,000 MILES ON IT. 3)I TOOK IT IN FOR THE REAR BRAKES AND WAS TOLD THE CALIPERS WERE FREEZING AND CAUSING THE BRAKES TO LOCK. I HAD THE BRAKES AND ROTORS DONE BUT COULD NOT AFFORD THE CALIPERS AT THAT TIME. I WAS TOLD THAT I WILL HAVE TO CHANGE THE BRAKES EVERY 20,000. MILES UNTIL I REPLACED THE CALIPERS. HELP! *TR

FUEL FILLING IS AWKWARD TO SAY THE LEAST! I CAN ONLY FILL TO JUST OVER HALF A TANK OF FUEL THEN THE CLICKER FORCES ME TO STOP. THE OWNERS WEBSITE CLAIM THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR 2007 MUSTANGS AND THAT WE SHOULD TRY ANOTHER GAS STATION WITH A LESS SENSITIVE FILLER OR TURN THE NOZZLE TO THE 2 O CLOCK POSITION. TURNING THE NOZZLE DOES WORK FROM TIME TO TIME BUT THE PROBLEM STILL REMAINS. WHY AREN'T THE DEALERS ACKNOWLEDGING THIS IS A PROBLEM A PROVIDE A SUITABLE SOLUTION? THIS WON'T DO MUCH FOR MARKETING OR FUTURE SALES IF THIS IS LEFT! *TR

LOW TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR COMES ON AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS OF AIRING UP TIRES I TOOK TO FORD WHO SAID TIRES WHERE OVERINFLATED SO THE SET IT BACK TO THE CORRECT AIR PRESSURE ONLY TO GET THE LIGHT BACK ON IN A WEEK . THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM BECAUSE TIRES CAN BE OVER INFLATED WHICH COULD CAUSE THE TIRE TO EXPLODE OR CAUSE EXTREMELY QUICK TIRE WEAR.{EITHER BY OVER INFLATING OR THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE} THESE TIRES ARE OVER INFLATED ONLY TO KEEP THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT FROM COMING BACK ON. I ALSO BROUGHT UP TO FORD SERVICE DEPT. ABOUT THE VALVE STEM ISSUE I READ , BUT THE LOOKED AT ME LIKE I WAS CRAZY . NOBODY THERE HEARD OF THAT . I AM JUST 1 PERSON BUT I HAVE A SMALL CHILD AND DON'T WANT THIS ISSUE TO CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT THANK YOU *TR

HAVING PROBLEMS TRYING TO GAS UP MY 2007 MUSTANG AT LEAST EVERY 3RD OR 4TH FILLUP. NO MATTER HOW MUCH GAS IN THE TANK THE PUMP CLICKS LIKE WHEN FULL BUT IN FACT IS ONLY HALF FULL. WHEN TANK IS HALF FULL IT CLICKS AT 3/4 FULL. TRIED EVERY OTHER MEANS TO FILL BUT NOTHING WORKS. PHONED MY DEALER, (VIOLETTE MOTORS IN EDMUNDSTON, NB. CANADA) TOLD ME HE NEVER HAD ANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS SUBJECT. I TOLD HIM TO LOOK AT HIS TSB,S AND HE WOULD SURELY SEE THERE ARE PROBLEMS. HE TOLD ME THAT HIS INSTRUCTIONS WERE TO TELL ME TO GAS UP ELSEWHERE. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 FORD MUSTANG 4.0 V6 WITH APPROXIMATELY 42K MILES. IT HAS RECENTLY DEVELOPED A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY-RELATED DEFECT WHICH THE FORD DEALERSHIP HAS REFUSED TO INVESTIGATE. FOR NO APPARENT REASON, WHILE STOPPED IN TRAFFIC AND WITH MY FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BREAK PEDAL,, THE ENGINE WILL SUDDENLY GO FULL THROTTLE. THIS FORCES THE CAR TO SUDDENLY LUNGE FORWARD AS THE REAR TIRES START SPINNING, OVERRIDING THE FRONT BREAKS. THIS HAS CAUSED ME TO COME DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO COLLIDING WITH THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME OR ENTERING AN INTERSECTION INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE ONLY RECOURSE IS TO QUICKLY TURN OFF THE IGNITION WHICH SEEMS TO RESET THE PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS WITH SOME REGULARITY, APPROXIMATELY 2 TO 3 TIMES A DAY BUT IS NOT REPRODUCIBLE ON DEMAND. THE FORD DEALERSHIP HAS OFFERED TO INVESTIGATE, AT MY EXPENSE, BUT WITH NO ASSURANCE THAT THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE CORRECTED. I HAVE HAD TO ALTER THE WAY THAT I DRIVE TO COMPENSATE FOR THIS BY LEAVING ADDITIONAL SPACE BETWEEN MY CAR AND THE ONE IN FRONT OF ME AND AT INTERSECTIONS. I FEAR THAT I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PREVENT MY VEHICLE FROM BECOMING INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT. *TR

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN TWO YEARS OF OWNERSHIP THAT THE FRONT HOOD HAS ALMOST POPPED ALL THE WAY OPEN WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. IT DID NOT OPEN FULLY BUT WAS CAUGHT BY THE LATCH ! *TR

VALVE STEMS ON 2007 FORD MUSTANG FAILED. *TR

IN EARLY 2007, I EXPERIENCED THE FIRST LOSS OF A TIRE UNDER MYSTERIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES. I WAS TRAVELING ALONG AT ABOUT 60 MPH WHEN I EXPERIENCED SUDDEN LOSS OF PRESSURE IN A TIRE. THIS WAS NOT PRECEDED BY ANY "AUDIBLE CHIME". PERHAPS I COULD NOT HEAR SAME BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC NOISE. OVER THE NEXT 3 MONTHS I WENT THROUGH A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE ON 2 OTHER TIRES. I WENT TO THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT OTHER PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR CARS HAD APPARENT VALVE STEM FAILURE. BY THIS TIME I HAD NOTICED A VALVE STEM WITH A CRACK IN IT. WENT TO MY FORD DEALER AND PLACED A WARRANTY CLAIM WITH FORD. WAS PROMPTLY TURNED DOWN AND TREATED BADLY BY THE DEALER SERVICE MGR., ALSO. I THEN FILED A BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU CLAIM AND SUDDENLY FORD AND THE DEALER WANTED TO SETTLE. THE SETTLEMENT WAS IN A SATISFACTORY AMOUNT. WHENEVER A VEHICLE SUFFERS A SUDDEN TIRE FAILURE, SOME RISK TO THE OCCUPANTS IS LIKELY TO FOLLOW. APPARENTLY NO ONE HAS BEEN KILLED IN RELATION TO THIS PROBLEM, THANKFULLY. MY MUSTANG WAS BUILT IN FEBRUARY, 2007. *TR

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2007 FORD MUSTANG WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. I HAVE HAD THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE BEFORE THE INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED 04/11/09, COMPLAINING OF SIMILAR ISSUES. I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW IN MAY OF 2007. I WAS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR FEELING SLUGGISH AND FEELING LIKE IT WAS VERY STIFF TO SHIFT OR STICKING. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP APPROXIMATELY AUGUST 07 AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT THERE WAS NOT A PROBLEM THAT I WAS JUST NOT USED TO THE CAR. ALL THEY DID WAS DRIVE IT THEY DID NOT INSPECT THE CAR. I THEN HAD A PROBLEM IN JAN. OR FEB. OF 2009 IN WHICH IS DISENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE AND ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE CAR IT WAS SLUGGISH AND WOULDN'T SHIFT GEARS AND WOULDN'T DRIVE PROPERLY. THE ABS LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR JUST SAT SPINNING. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY KEPT IT IN THE GARAGE FOR A COUPLE HOURS THEN TOLD ME IT WAS FINE TO DRIVE, THEY SAID THE CAR JUST NEEDED TO UNTHAW?? THEY DID NOT LOOK AT IT AGAIN. THIS LEADS UP TO 04/11/2009 IN WHICH I PARKED THE CAR MADE SURE THE PARKING BRAKE WAS SET AND THE CAR WAS IN GEAR. AS I WENT INTO MY HOUSE I HEARD A CLICKING TYPE SOUND AND THE CAR STARTED ROLLING BACKWARDS. IT ROLLED ACROSS A PARKING LOT INTO THE NEIGHBORS YARD, OVER A TREE STUMP, HIT A MAILBOX BEFORE COMING TO REST AGAINST A TELEPHONE POLE. THIS WAS WITH THE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED AND THE CAR STILL IN GEAR. I HAVE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED

POWER WINDOWS KEEPS BLOWING FUSE, 6 TIMES NOW AND THEY CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT, SAID I AM USING THEM TOO MUCH. *TR

MY 2007 FORD MUSTANG WAS SHIPPED WITHOUT TIRE AIR PRESSURE SENSORS. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY WANTED ME TO PAY FOR SENSORS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN HE RELEASES THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE FAILS TO SLOW DOWN. THE VEHICLE TAKES APPROXIMATELY THREE TO FIVE SECONDS TO DECELERATE. FORD SENT A TECHNICIAN TO INVESTIGATE THE FAILURE AND CONCLUDED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED TO OPERATE IN THAT MANNER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16,694.

I HAVE A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. AT 25,000 MILES THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE TIRE THE BRAKES ARE SCRATCHING UP THE ROTOR. I HAVE READ MANY CASES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH OTHER FORD VEHICLES. THIS IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT. *TR

AT 18,000 MILES THE TIRES ON MY FORD MUSTANG SHELBY ARE SHOWING THE CORD. THEY SAID THE ALIGNMENT IS OK. THEY WANT ME TO BUY NEW TIRES TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. *TR

MY WIFE AND HER FRIEND WERE DRIVING DOWN A 2 LANE ROAD IN OUR 2007 FORD MUSTANG AND WRECKED INTO A POWER POLL TOTALING THE CAR. THE FRONT FRAME WAS BROKE IN HALF AND THE AIRBAGS STILL DID NOT DEPLOY LUCKILY THEY WERE NOT INJURED BAD FORD JUST TOLD ME THAT IS THE WAY THEY ARE DESIGNED TO WORK. I THOUGHT THAT IF IN A FRONTAL COLLISION THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY. *TR

MY CAR IS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG GT AND SINCE WE PURCHASED IT IN MARCH 2007, WE HAVE HAD 3 SEPARATE ISSUES WITH THE VALVE STEMS. IN THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT, MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND EXPERIENCED A TIRE BLOWOUT WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. WHEN WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER WE WERE TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM AGAIN CAME FROM A CRACKED VALVE STEM. FORD DID REPLACE THE TIRE AT NO CHARGE TO US; HOWEVER I STILL HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE AND THE REMAINING VALVE STEMS. *TR

I RECEIVED A RECALL REMINDER REGARDING RECALL 08C02 IN MAY OF 2008 FOR # AND I HAVE NEVER OWNED THIS CAR, SO I CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD FORWARD TO CURRENT OWNER. JANUARY 2009 I RECEIVED AN URGENT RECALL NOTICE 08C02 FOR SAME # FROM MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKED IF THEY COULD HELP TO GET THIS NOTICE TO THE CORRECT OWNER, THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY CONTACTED FORD AND THEN I WAS TOLD THERE ISN'T ANYTHING FORD CAN DO. I'M CONCERNED THAT THE CURRENT OWNER ISN'T AWARE OF A SAFETY ISSUE FOR THAT CAR AND NOBODY SEEMS TO CARE. I'M HOPING YOU CAN HELP. THANK YOU *TR

CAR FAILURE WHILE DRIVING CAR SHUT COMPLETELY OFF WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AT 45MPH. CAR IS A FORD 2007 MUSTANG V6 MODEL YEAR 36,000 BOUGHT BRAND NEW FROM LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. CAR AT APPROXIMATELY 10:00 PM WHILE DRIVING THROUGH A DARK DESOLATE COUNTRY ROAD COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN ON ME LIGHTS WENT OFF, LOST CONTROL OF STEERING AND WOULD NOT RESTART HAD TO PUSH THE CAR OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD NO ELECTRICAL FUNCTION WHAT SO EVER. *TR

CONVERTIBLE TOP LEAKS AND FLOODS PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE. *TR

SINCE NEW DELIVERY, MY CAR LEAKS RAINWATER ONTO THE THRESHOLD TO THE INSIDE OF THE DOOR SEAL. TO REMOVE THE WATER AFTER IT STOPS RAINING IT IS NECESSARY TO OPEN THE DOOR AND LET IT RUN OUT WHEN DOING THIS THE WATER IS NOT COMING OUT OF THE DESIGNED DRAIN HOLES IN THE DOOR. WHEN THE TEMPERATURE DROPS I GET ICE BUILDING UP ON THE DOOR GASKET AND THRESHOLD POTENTIALLY LOCKING ME OUT OR PERHAPS BENDING SHEET METAL. I EXPERIENCED IT ONCE BUT WAS ABLE TO GET IN. MY WIFE IS 5 FT TALL; THERE IS NO WAY SHE COULD OPEN THE DOOR IN SIMILAR CONDITIONS AND SHE WOULD BE STRANDED. AFTER 7 TRIPS TO THE SERVICE DEPT WITH LITTLE OR NO IMPROVEMENT, FORD MAINTAINS THAT WATER BUILD UP LIKE THIS IS NORMAL AND ACCORDING TO DESIGN. I THINK WATER AND/OR ICE DAMAGE WILL EVENTUALLY REDUCE THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE CAR. I HAD DIFFICULTY GETTING IN THE CAR ONCE DUE TO ICE, SO PRUDENTLY HAVE STOPPED TAKING IT IN RAIN OR SNOW. THE CAR IS ALWAYS DAMP FEELING AND MUSTY SMELLING ( I HAVE ALLERGIES) BECAUSE I THINK THE INNER DOOR PANELS HAVE BEEN SOAKED REPEATEDLY. I HAVE DIGITAL PHOTOS AVAILABLE. WHILE APPEALING TO THE DEALER BOARD, THE RI REGISTRY OFFICIAL CLAIMED THERE WAS NO RECORD OF COMPLAINTS SUCH AS THESE AT NHTSA, I SEEK TO REMEDY THAT OVERSIGHT. IF YOU CONTACT ME I HAVE COMPLETE DETAILS AVAILABLE. *TR
