2007 Ford Mustang complaints

I HAD FILED A COMPLAINT A FEW WEEKS AGO ( ODI# 10192797) ABOUT THE POWER STEERING PUMP FAILURE ON MY 2007 MUSTANG GT WHICH HAD 270 MILES ON IT. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE PUMP UNDER THE WARRANTY AND I HAD MENTIONED A PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT END ALSO. I RETURNED THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TO MY DISMAY, WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAD TO REPLACE MY FRONT STRUTS, THEY EXPLAINED THAT THIS WAS THE CAUSE OF MY ALIGNMENT ISSUE. THEY FURTHER EXPLAINED TO ME THAT THEY THINK THAT WHILE MY CAR WAS BEING TRANSPORTED VIA TRAIN, THAT THEY TIED THE CAR DOWN TOO TIGHTLY CAUSING STRESS ON THE STRUTS AND CASTERS CAUSING THE ALIGNMENT AND STEERING WHEEL ISSUES. THE WORK HAS BEEN COMPLETED AND COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND ALTHOUGH THE ALIGNMENT ISSUE HAS BEEN SOLVED AND THE STEERING WHEEL BACK IN ITS NORMAL POSITION I HAVE NOTICED A THUMPING NOISE FROM THE RIGHT FRONT WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS, ALMOST LIKE A BAD STRUT MOUNT OR SOMETHING. IN ALL FAIRNESS TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO IS FIXING MY CAR, THEY HAVE BEEN EXCELLENT WITH ME AND THIS HAS ALL BEEN COVERED UNDER WARRANTY . MY CAR NOW HAS 1,700 MILES ON IT AND AM WORRIED I MAY HAVE TO SWAP IT OUT FOR ANOTHER WHICH I REALLY DO NOT WANT TO DO AT THIS POINT, IT TOOK A LOT OF RESEARCH TO MIX AND MATCH ALL THE COLORS AND THE OPTIONS THAT MY CAR HAS. *TR

PURCHASED THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE SHOWROOM ALTHOUGH IT HAD 81 MILES ON IT. ON MY 3RD DAY WITH 240 MILES ON IT, THE POWER STEERING PUMP STOPPED WORKING. I HAD THE CAR SERVICED AND THE REPLACED THE PUMP. THE NEXT DAY, I NOTICED THE CAR PULLING TO THE LEFT AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS OFF CENTER, ALSO TO THE LEFT. I HAVE AN APPT TO DEAL WITH THE NEW ISSUE. I ALSO NOTICE THAT THE CAR IS VERY SKITTISH ON BUMPS, I DONT KNOW IF THATS DUE TO THE LARGE TIRES (18) OR NOT.

REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER HAS LINES THAT DO NOT WORK, THIS CAUSES REAR WINDOW NOT TO FULLY CLEAR OF FOG OR SNOW AND ICE. FORD WILL NOT REPLACE WINDOWS, ONLY OFFERS TO FIX LINES THAT DO NOT WORK WITH A ELECTRICAL PAINT. *AK

I WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT COLLISION. THE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE WAS EXTENSIVE. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WAS RESTRAINED SOLELY BE THE SEAT BELT. *TR

2007 MUSTANG: HAVE HAD NUMEROUS OF PROBLEMS WITH FILLING UP WITH GAS. THIS DOES HAPPEN QUITE OFTEN. IT'S ONLY LETTING ME FILL UP ABOUT HALF WAY AND PUMP CLICKS LIKE THE FUEL TANK IS FULL, AND IT'S NOT. I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT DUE TO MY TIME SCHEDULE. THERE WILL BE A CALL TO FORD VERY SOON FROM ME. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 FORD MUSTANG GT DOWN CITY STREETS WHEN THE ACCELERATOR LOCKED UP. THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE DESPITE REMOVING MY FOOT FROM THE GAS PEDAL AND APPLYING THE BRAKES DID LITTLE TO HELP SLOW THE CAR. THIS CAUSED ME TO RUN A 3-WAY INTERSECTION, WHICH FORCED ME TO TURN AT DANGEROUS RATE OF SPEED. I ENDED UP RUNNING THE CAR OFF THE ROAD, OVER A CURB/SIDEWALK AND INTO A SMALL TREE TO STOP IT. THE CAR SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO BOTH DRIVER'S SIDE TIRES, THE DRIVER'S FRONT FENDER, BUMPER, DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT WHEEL AND FRONT SUSPENSION. *JB

I PURCHASED A 2007 FORD GT V-8 AUTOMATIC MUSTANG ON 10/10/06. ONE WEEK AFTER THE PURCHASE, I WAS DRIVING, AND MY THROTTLE GOT STUCK. I PULLED THE E BRAKE AND THREW THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL. AFTER STOPPED THE CAR EVENTUALLY TURNED, I BELIEVE BECAUSE THE RPM'S WERE SO HIGH. ELEVEN DAYS LATER ON 10/29/06 I TOOK OFF AND THE GAS PEDAL STARTED TO TAKE CONTROL AGAIN, YET FAILED TO GO TO THE EXTREME AS THE FIRST TIME. ON 11/07/06 APPROX 6:45 PM, I WAS DRIVING, GOING ABOUT 55 MPH. IT WAS ALREADY DARK OUTSIDE & ROADS WET. AFTER BEING SET ON A SPEED OF 50-55 MPH, I HIT THE GAS PEDAL TO GET UP TO AROUND 60 MPH. ONCE I DID, I COULD FEEL THE GAS PEDAL GO DOWN ON IT'S OWN. INSTINCT REACTION WAS TO HIT THE BRAKES, BUT WHEN I DID THE CAR STARTED SLIDING DUE TO THE WET ROAD. WHILE THE RPM'S WERE GOING UP, I THREW THE SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND PULLED THE E BRAKE. ONCE I FINALLY STOPPED, THE RPM'S WERE STILL EXTREME, AND THEN THE CAR FINALLY CUT OFF ON IT'S OWN. I LEFT THE CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT EVENING. THE FOLLOWING AFTERNOON ON 11/08/06, THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE CAR WAS READY, SO I ASKED WHAT THEY HAD DETERMINED. HE STATED THAT THE FLOOR MAT WAS THE ISSUE. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME, I DID NOT HAVE THE WEATHER MAT WHICH IS 5 CM THICK. IN ADDITION, HOW CAN A FLOOR MAT, MAKE A PEDAL ACCELERATE ON IT'S OWN? I COULD ACTUALLY FEEL THE GAS PEDAL GOING DOWN AS IF CRUISE CONTROL WAS JUST TURNED ON. THE DEALERSHIP ASKED IF HE COULD DRIVE MY CAR HOME TO HIS HOUSE TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE. HE ALS
