2011 Ford Mustang complaints

TAKATA RECALL I DRIVE A SHELBY GT500 AND LIVE IN PALM HARBOR, FL WHICH IS A HOT CLIMATE. I WAS NOTIFIED LAST MAY BY FORD OF THIS RECALL AND THEY INDICATED I WOULD RECEIVE ANOTHER NOTICE IN A FEW MONTHS TO GET THE CAR REPAIRED. ONE YEAR LATER I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF A DEALER TO TAKE THE CAR TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THIS CAR IS MY DAILY DRIVER AND SINCE IT HAS BEEN TESTED BY FORD TO BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE SPEEDS OF 180MPH I FEEL THAT I AM BEING LEFT IN A VERY DANGEROUS POSITION SINCE IT STILL HASNT BEEN REPAIRED. EVERY TIME I START THE CAR AND DRIVE AWAY I AM PUTTING MY LIFE IN FORD'S HANDS SINCE THEY HAVE FAILED TO FIX A KNOWN AIR BAG DEFECT. THIS RECALL GETS EXPANDED ALMOST DAILY AND I SEE NO RELIEF IN SIGHT. HOW DO I GET MY CAR FIXED NOW BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS OR HOW DO I GET FORD TO REPLACE IT WITH A NON IMPACTED MODEL? THIS IS NOT A STANDARD MUSTANG BUT LIKE I STATED A SHELBY GT500 OF WHICH ONLY 5000 WERE EVEN PRODUCED IN 2011 - THIS IS A SPECIALTY HIGH PERFORMANCE SPORTS CAR AND THE DISREGARD FOR MY SAFETY HAS TO BE ADDRESSED NOW. PLEASE ADVISE WHAT MY NEXT STEPS ARE TO EITHER HAVE THIS REPAIR NOW OR REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO PART UNAVAILABILITY. THE CONTACT WAS UNAWARE IF THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I RECEIVED THE AIRBAG RECALL NOTICE ALMOST A YEAR AGO AND THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE TO FIX MY CAR..

RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2015 FOR THE AIR BAGS IN MY 2011 FORD MUSTANG. I CALLED THE DEALER A FEW DAYS AFTER RECEIVING THE LETTER TO SEE WHEN I SHOULD BRING IN THE CAR FOR REPAIR. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN TO BRING IN THE CAR. WAITED 3 MONTHS AND CALLED AGAIN, I WAS TOLD TO WAIT FOR THEIR CALL, "SO DON'T BOTHER US AGAIN". I WAITED AGAIN AND THEN CALLED FORD, THEY SENT ME BACK TO THE DEALER. CALLED THE DEALER AGAIN AND WAS TOLD TO STOP BOTHERING THEM, THEY WILL CALL ME IF OR WHEN THEY FEEL LIKE IT. FORD CO. AND THEIR DEALER DON'T CARE IF I GET A FACE OF METAL PIECES BUT I DO. ISN'T THERE SOME WAY TO HOLD THEM RESPONSIBLE FOR SELLING ME AN UNSAFE CAR.

TAKATA RECALL ALMOST 12 MONTHS HAVE ELAPSED SINCE I BECAME AWARE OF THE RECALL FOR MY CAR THROUGH NATIONAL NEWS MEDIA.. I HAVE NEVER BEEN CONTACTED BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY EVEN THOUGH I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. I HAVE ASKED MY PREFERRED FORD DEALER WHEN THEY WILL IMPLEMENT THIS RECALL. THE LAST OCCASION WAS RECENTLY WHEN I HAD MY CAR SERVICED ON 4/6/2016 AND I WAS ADVISED THAT THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE SO FAR BUT IT IS EXPECTED TO IMPLEMENT THE RECALL "LATER THIS YEAR". THIS SITUATION PUTS MY FAMILY AND MY PASSENGERS AT RISK OF INJURY OR WORSE AND FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAVE NOT RESOLVED THIS IN ALMOST 12 MONTHS. THIS IS IRRESPONSIBLE IN THE EXTREME AND SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE. OWNERS SHOULD NOW BE GIVEN A SAFE, REPLACEMENT VEHICLE UNTIL THE RECALL IS CARRIED OUT. MY LOCAL TV NEWS CHANNEL (CHANNEL 13 LAS VEGAS) LAST NIGHT AGAIN RECOMMENDED VEHICLE OWNERS TO CHECK OUT POSSIBLE RECALLS AND ACCORDINGLY I HAVE RESEARCHED THE INTERNET TO CHECK IF THERE IS ANY FURTHER PROGRESS ON MY FORD. THERE IS NOTHING NEW AND SO I FEEL FULLY JUSTIFIED IN LODGING THIS COMPLAINT WITH YOURSELVES. AS AT TODAY'S DATE. ( LAST NOVEMBER I CONTEMPLATED REPLACING MY CAR WITH A CHEVROLET. CAMARO. THE GM DEALER SAID THAT HE WAS HESITANT TO TAKE A FORD MUSTANG IN PART EXCHANGE BECAUSE OF THE RISK OF AIR BAG FAILURE AND THE FACT THAT CHECKS WERE NOT BEING DONE. HE POINTED OUT THAT AS A RESULT OTHER DEALERS WERE FACTORING IN THIS SITUATION AND IN CONSEQUENCE PART-EXCHANGE VALUES WERE NOW LOWERED

WHILE DRIVING MY 2011 V6 MUSTANG THE CAR WILL COMPLETELY LOOSE POWER. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON SIDE STREETS. THERE IS NO WARNING. THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CAR IS FORCED TO IDLE. NO RESPONSE AT ALL TO THROTTLE INPUT. ERROR CODE READ IS P2111 WHICH INDICATES "THROTTLE ACTUATOR "A" CONTROL SYSTEM - STUCK OPEN". IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE THROTTLE BODY IN THIS VEHICLE IS THE SAME AS USED IN OTHER FORD VEHICLES. A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THOSE OTHER VEHICLES BUT EVERYONE SUFFERING FROM THIS ON THE V6 MUSTANG IS ON THEIR OWN. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS FOR PEOPLE ACCELERATING TO MERGE AND VERY DANGEROUS ON THE HIGHWAY TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD OR HAVE TO LIMP TO THE SHOULDER THROUGH TRAFFIC AT IDLE. I HAVE ALREADY PAID $300 FOR A FULL THROTTLE BODY SERVICE AND THE SAME THING IS STILL HAPPENING.

MY BACK PASSENGER FLOOR IS SOAKING WET FOR NO REASON. I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH MY AIR CONDITIONING. DEALERSHIP SAID I HAD A LEAK BUT COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. I RESEARCHED WHEN THEY COULDN'T FIND IT. MY CAR STARTED TO NOT ONLY BLOW HOT AIR, BUT STARTED SMELLING MOLDY. MY CABIN AIR FILTER AND THE CARPARTMENT WAS FULL OF WATER. THE FILTER WAS SOAKING WET AND FULL OF MOLD. I CHANGE IT AND DRAINED THE WATER MYSELF. MY CAR AC RAN BETTER THAN EVER UP TO YESTERDAY. MY AC IS NOT BLOWING THE ICE COLD AIR AND THEIR IS LOTS OF WATER ON THE BACK FLOOR. I HAVE HEATED SEATS. THE ELECTRICAL PARTS ARE UNDER THE SEATS. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP I HAVE THE BEST WARRANTY BUT IT DOESN'T COVER WATER. IT DIDN'T COVER THE AC EITHER. I'M TOLD I'M GOING TO HAVE TO PAY ANOTHER $300+ TO FIX MY CAR WHEN THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH 2005- PRESENT MUSTANGS. LOOK AT HTTP://WWW.ALLFORDMUSTANGS.COM/FORUMS/2011-2014-MUSTANG-TALK/441897-2011-GT-PASSENGER-FOOT-WELLS-FLOODED-DURING-RAINSTORM.HTML#/FORUMSITE/20799/TOPICS/441897?PAGE=1. HE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. I'M STILL WAITING FOR MY SEAT BELT RECALL TO BE FIXED. I'VE HAD MY SEAT BELT WARNING A YEAR AFTER I GOT THE CAR. I WAS TOLD IT TOO WASN'T COVERED BY THE WARRANTY AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC TO SEE WHAT IS CAUSING THE WARNING LIGHT ON MY DASH. FORD NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR CARS AND START FIXING THEM. I HAVE SEVERE ALLERGIES. MY BACK SEAT ALREADY HAS GREEN LOOKING MOLD ON THE CARPET THAT OBVIOUSLY THE WATER HAS BEEN THERE FOR SOME TIME

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS INFORMED OF THE RECALL IN JULY 2015 WHEN I RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL. I HAVE YET TO HEAR BACK FROM THEM THAT THE PARTS ARE IN TO GET THE AIR BAG FIXED AND IT'S ALMOST FEBRUARY 2016. I'VE READ THAT THERE HAVE BEEN 10 DEATHS RELATED TO THIS RECALL AND OTHER INJURIES ASSOCIATED WITH THE ISSUE. I DRIVE A LOT FOR WORK AND MY AREA JUST RECENTLY GOT NEARLY 3 FEET OF SNOW. I'M ALREADY FEELING UNSAFE DRIVING MY CAR IN THE SNOW BUT THIS ISSUE ON TOP OF IT IS REALLY MAKING ME UPSET. I LOVE MY CAR AND CONTINUE TO MAKE MONTHLY PAYMENTS ON IT THAT I'M BECOMING LESS AND LESS EXCITED TO MAKE KNOWING THAT EVERY TIME I HOP IN MY CAR TO GO SOMEWHERE, THERE'S A CHANCE OF ME DYING FROM SHARDS OF METAL BEING EJECTED OUT OF MY AIRBAG AT ME. I'D FEEL SO MUCH SAFER KNOWING THAT I WAS DRIVING A SAFE RENTAL CAR UNTIL THE PARTS COME IN TO FIX MY AIRBAG ISSUE. UNFORTUNATELY, I'VE SPOKEN TO BOTH TAKATA AND FORD TODAY AND BOTH COMPANIES DENY GIVING ME A RENTAL CAR UNTIL THOSE PARTS (WHICH ARE ON BACK ORDER) COME IN. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW SUCH A BIG COMPANY CAN CREATE SUCH A POTENTIALLY FATAL PROBLEM AND NOT TAKE EVERY MEASURE TO KEEP THE CONSUMER'S BEST INTEREST AT HEART. I'VE INVESTED IN MY CAR AND I'M NOW AT A HIGHER RISK OF FATALITY BY DRIVING IT. AIRBAGS ARE SUPPOSED TO PROVIDE SAFETY, NOT CREATE MORE HARM. TAKATA REALLY NEEDS TO STEP UP AND MAKE THINGS RIGHT WITH THE CONSUMERS, AND IF THEY'RE NOT WILLING TO THEN FORD NEEDS TO. AT THIS POINT, I'M READY TO SELL MY CAR AND GET A

INTERMITTENT LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING. HAVE TO CONSTANTLY TRY TO TURN OFF CAR AND RESTART TO GET THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING TO WORK AGAIN. LOST POWER STEERING ON THE INTERSTATE WITH KIDS IN THE CAR AND ENDED UP IN THE GRASS, ALMOST TAKING OUT THE GUARDRAIL. FORD DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE HAVE BEEN 450,000 2011-2012 VEHICLES THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM AND PART, YET SOMEHOW THE MUSTANGS WEREN'T IN THE RECALL. DEALERSHIP QUOTED $1500 TO REPLACE THE SAME PART THAT IS BEING RECALLED ON OTHER VEHICLES. I HAVE READ MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM WITH THE SAME MUSTANGS. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY KIDS AND FAMILY ANYWHERE IN THIS CAR! IT'S AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN!!

TAKATA INFLATORS: BASICALLY MY COMPLAINT IS SIMPLY THAT FORD HAS BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS POTENTIALLY DEADLY DEFECT AND HAS NOT REPAIRED A SINGLE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG SINCE THAT TIME. I HAVE REPEATEDLY BEEN ATTEMPTING TO GET FORD TO REPAIR THE DEFECT SINCE THEY SOLD ME THE CAR IN AUGUST (WHEN THEY PROMISED THEY COULD FIX IT ASAP), BUT I'M BEING TOLD THAT FORD DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ANY PARTS MADE TO FIX IT YET. I WOULD DEEPLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU COULD LOOK INTO WHAT SORT OF TIMELINE WAS PROMISED BY FORD AND WHETHER THEY ARE MAKING EVERY EFFORT TO GET THIS POTENTIAL DEATHLY ISSUE FIXED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THANK YOU, *TR

IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER AND COMPLETE LOSS OF ACCELERATION. THIS HAS OCCURRED IN AN INTERSECTION AND IN THE MIDDLE OF A MULTI-LANE HIGHWAY AT 35 MPH AND 60 MPH AND WHEN EITHER ACCELERATING OR HOLDING AT A STEADY SPEED. THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY LOSES POWER AND DECELERATES REGARDLESS OF SPEED. THE VEHICLE IS INOPERABLE UNTIL IT IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. THE PROBLEM IS RECURRING AND UNPREDICTABLE. BECAUSE THE CODE DISAPPEARS UPON RESTARTING IT CANNOT BE DIAGNOSED. I HAD TO GET A CODE READER TO GET THE CODE WHICH HAD TO BE USED AFTER AN EMERGENCY STOP ALONG THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS THERE IS NO WARNING BEFORE THE LOSS OF POWER. ERROR CODE P2111-THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM STUCK OPEN. THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED 10/29/15, 11/16/15, 11/25/15, AND 11/30/15.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED AT HIGH RPMS SWITCHING FROM 1ST GEAR TO 2ND THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO GO IN GEAR ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS.AND ALSO 3RD TO 4TH..DEALER SAYS IT'S COMMON AT TIMES.AFTER MONTHS OF DEALING WITH THIS ISSUES 5TH GEAR IS GRINDING AND IS AT THE DEALER FOR REPAIR AT MY EXPENSE.

A RECALL WAS ISSUED ON 05/28/2015 FOR DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS THAT COULD RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH IF ACTIVATED. THE REPLACEMENT PART IS NOT YET AVAILABLE. I REQUESTED THAT FORD PROVIDE A LOANER CAR AND I WAS ADVISED THAT "AT THIS TIME, IF A LOANER VEHICLE IS AN OPTION, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD HAVE TO DISCUSS WITH THE DEALERSHIP. FORD IS NOT OFFERING LOANER VEHICLES. THE U.S. GOVERNMENT'S NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION SAYS THAT IT (NHTSA) WILL ORGANIZE AND PRIORITIZE THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG INFLATORS TO ENSURE THAT DEFECTIVE INFLATORS ARE REPLACED WITH SAFE ONES AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, ADDRESSING THE HIGHEST RISKS FIRST. ACCORDING TO NHTSA ADMINISTRATOR MARK ROSEKIND, YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO TAKE YOUR VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR AS SOON AS YOU ARE NOTIFIED THAT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE, BUT YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE UNTIL THEN." SO I AM BEING TOLD BY THE NHTSA THAT IT IS OK FOR MY DAUGHTER TO DRIVE HER VEHICLE AND ESSENTIALLY RISK HER LIFE OR SERIOUS INJURY? I WOULD JUST LIKE CONFIRMATION OF THAT SINCE IT HAS BEEN OVER 4 MONTHS AND NO REPLACEMENT PART IS YET AVAILABLE NOR HAVE I BEEN GIVEN A TIME FRAME FOR WHEN IT WILL BE AVAILABLE.

CAR STALLS GOES INTO LIMP MODE NO WARNING .VERY BAD ON FREEWAY CANT GET OFF THE ROAD I HAVE HAD 3 CLOSE CALLS A LIGHT COMES ON AM TOLD BY FORD DEALER IT COULD BE THE THROTTLE BODY BUT NO CODES ARE SHOWING UP.I HAVE LOOKED ON LINE AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND OTHER FORD CARS.IHAVE TALKED TO THE DEALER AND HE SAID THE THROTTLE BODY IS NOT COVERED BY WARRENTY THESE CARS SHOULD BE CORRECTED THEY ARE DANGEROUS I HATE TO DRIVE THE CAR MY CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRENTY.

CAR RANDOMLY GOES INTO "LIMP HOME" MODE. CODE COULD NOT BE CAUGHT BY DEALER SO I PURCHASED A SCANNER. CODE CAUGHT EVERYTIME IS P2111 REPRESENTING THAT THE THROTTLE BODY ACTUATOR IS STUCK OPEN. THIS CAN HAPPEN WITHIN A FEW MILES OF DRIVING OR UP TO 20 MILES. IT CAN HAPPEN AT 5 MPH OR 65 MPH. IT CAN HAPPEN WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES OF A TRIP OR 30 MINUTES IN. IT CAN HAPPEN ONCE OR EVERY FEW MINUTES. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS THE LIMP HOME DOES NOT GET ENOUGH POWER TO GET OFF ROAD. I ALMOST CAUSED A MULTI CAR ACCIDENT . CAN YOU IMAGINE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR JUST STOPS? IT DOESN'T EVEN COAST. I SEE THIS COMPLAINT ON ALOT OF FORD FORUMS. IT IS LIKE FORD IS JUST WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO BE KILLED OR SUE THEM BEFORE THEY SOLVE THE ISSUE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE FORD DEALER AND THEY SAY IT IS MY BATTERY. I WENT TO AN INDEPENDENT SOURCE AND THEY TESTED MY BATTERY AND I HAD KNOWN, THE BATTERY IS FINE. I HAVE BEEN INTO FORD SERVICE NUMEROUS TIMES AND WHEN I RETURN THEY DO EVERTHING BUT FIX THE ISSUE. THE DATE BELOW IS THE 1ST TIME EXPERIENCED. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN OFTEN BUT THIS YEAR IS EVERYTIME I DRIVE.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A NO-FAULT ACCIDENT IN MY 2011 FORD MUSTANG IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR AFTER SOMEONE IN THE LANE TO MY LEFT WHO WAS HELD UP IN TRAFFIC IN HIS LANE PULLED OUT INTO MY LANE WITHOUT LOOKING, CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO SMASH INTO HIM. THE FORCE OF THE CRASH CAUSED OVER $9,000 IN DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE AND LEFT ME WITH 5 HERNIATED DISCS, HIP PROBLEMS, AND A NUMBER OF OTHER ISSUES. I HAVE HAD A SERIES OF SHOTS IN MY NECK, AS WELL AS MY SPINE, BOTH OF WHICH HAVE NOT ALLEVIATED MY PAIN. I AM NOW BEING TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO FOR MY NECK AT THIS TIME, AND THAT I HAVE TO JUST LEARN TO LIVE WITH THE PAIN, AND ALSO THAT I NEED TO HAVE SURGERY ON MY LOWER BACK. MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. TWO MONTHS LATER, I GOT A RECALL LETTER IN FROM FORD, BUT I TOOK MY CAR UP TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY SAID THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO. THEY WEREN'T EVEN INTERESTED IN TRADING MY CAR IN. I SUPPOSE THAT I SHOULD BE GRATEFUL THAT IT DID NOT GO OFF, AS APPARENTLY PEOPLE ARE DYING WHEN THEY DO, BUT SOMEHOW IT DOES NOT MAKE ME FEEL BETTER, AS THIS HAS TOTALLY MESSED UP MY LIFE THESE LAST 6 MONTHS THAT HAVE BEEN FILLED WITH TIME-CONSUMING VISITS TO DOCTORS, CHIROPRACTORS, ETC... I'M ONLY 36 YEARS OLD, AND NOW I AM SUPPOSE TO LIVE WITH THIS?? IT'S REALLY TERRIBLE WHAT HAS HAPPENED. I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHO TO TALK TO ABOUT A SUIT FOR THE AIRBAG SITUATION, AS I SPOKE WITH MY INJURY ATTORNEY WHO IS SUING THE INSURANCE COMPANY FOR MY INJURIES, AND HE IS SOMEHOW UNDER THE IMPRESSI

BODY CORROSION ON THE HOOD / DOOR CAUSING PAINT TO CHIP

WHEN THE CAR WAS ABOUT 3 YEARS OLD, I STARTED TO FEEL A QUICK LOSS OF POWER IN THE STEERING WHEN MAKING A TURN. IT HAD ONLY LASTED A SECOND AND ONLY HAPPENED AT LOW SPEED IN PARKING LOTS BUT HAPPEN WHILE I WAS DRIVING SO I TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALER IN FULLERTON CA. THEY SAID IT WAS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM AND THEY UPDATED THE SOFTWARE. THE PROBLEM DISAPPEARED BUT THEN REAPPEARED ABOUT A YEAR LATER. I CONTINUED TO DRIVE IT CAUSE IT WAS ONLY OCCASIONALLY AT LOW SPEED FOR A HALF SECOND IN PARKING LOTS. THEN IN THE MORNING OF OCTOBER 16, 2015, THE STEERING OF THE CAR LOCKED WHILE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS. TWO YELLOW WARNING LIGHTS THEN CAME ON IN THE DASH AND THE STEERING RELEASED. ONE WARNING LIGHT SAID "SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC." I SLOWLY DROVE IT TO THE FORD DEALER IN FULLERTON ON RESIDENTIAL STREETS SINCE IT WAS NEARBY. I NO LONGER FELT SAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR. I TOLD THEM THE PROBLEM. THEY KEPT THE CAR UNTIL OCTOBER 20. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME HE HAD TO CHANGE THE ENTIRE POWER STEERING SYSTEM BECAUSE OF AN INTERNAL FAILURE AND THE CHARGE TO ME WAS $1733. I COMPLAINED BUT HAD NO CHOICE SINCE I NEEDED THE CAR REPAIRED. I HAVE SEEN VERY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT OTHER MUSTANGS. FORD RECALLED SEVERAL OTHER MODELS EARLIER THIS YEAR FOR THE SAME PROBLEM; 'A POTENTIAL INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL CONNECTION IN THE STEERING GEAR' THAT FORD SAYS 'MIGHT RESULT IN THE LOSS OF ELECTRIC POWER-STEERING ASSIST WHILE DRIVING.' THESE MODELS INCLUDED 2011'2012 FORD F
