2016 Ford Mustang complaints

Right rear turn signals and break lights occasionally fail to work. Turning the car off and on 3-4 times temporarily resolved the issue but eventually this temporary fix failed and I was told the entire rear tail light assembly would need to be replaced. An alternative to this total replacement might be found in Ford Special Service Message 47429 where Ford will reprogram the body control module which supposedly corrects the issue.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Mustang. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the driver’s side door would unlock without warning. The contact stated that the door ajar warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local mechanic but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000. It is both driver's side and passenger side door that would open not unlock. It would open into the second stage. Happens regularly and at different speeds on different road conditions.

I have had my 2016 mustang for 5 years already with 29k miles , my warrantee has expired. I recently notice I had check engine light for P0456 Evaporative Emission Leak. I took the car to get smoke test by my local shop mechanic and it came that there fuel vapor coming out of capless filler neck,since every ford model after 2013 don't have gas cap nomore I would have to replace the whole gas filler pipe which is around $500 for part and labor. In other cars you can just change gas cap for 20$ buh since in my case my car doesn't have gas cap i would have to replace the whole gas pipe filler and ford doesnt offer any gas cap for my car. I feel like if i do change my gas filler pipe , mabey couple years from now it's gona start giving same check engine problem. I also feel safety concern i do live in Arizona where gets really hot and with fuel vapor coming out capless filler it might cost a fire. I have 3year daughter that likes to ride in my mustang but i don't let her intill this gets fix i don't want her smelling gas . Im hoping with this recall ford can fix the issue and work on better design and or make a gas cap to fix evap leak without having to spend hundreds of dollards.thank you

My backup camera, GPS, and satellite radio lost connection. I could not see behind me or find my location. The wiring harness going to the trunk stopped working. Dealership told me it was due to a “faulty design from the factory” and that it was from “opening and closing the trunk too much.” They replaced it, forced me to pay nearly $600, and told me to keep my receipts in case it ever becomes a recall. Not sure if this applies to every model or just the convertibles. I still see glitches periodically even with the new one.

Engine threw a rod and damaged several pistons. Car has only 86,000 miles on it. Routine maintenance was done on schedule. No warning lights or symptoms were present before the incident. This will now require a full engine replacement. The incident happened while driving causing a major loss of power and eventually the inability to safely get my vehicle out of traffic. My car is still sitting at my mechanic and is available for inspection. It was only diagnosed and no repairs have been performed. The current COVID situation has made it impossible to even secure a replacement engine. Ford should be held accountable based on the number of related issues reported. I’m now paying on a car I can’t drive or repair l.

Clutch pedal failed. Welds broke away from break clutch housing. Resulting in the inability to disengage transmission. I was forced to use the breaks to stall the vehicle. Towed to repair shop. Replacement part was not available. Had the shop weld clutch pedal back to the assembly. See pictures.

The vehicle is having the same issues as the 2015 and 2017 models. The passenger door will unlock and unlatch by itself while driving. Luckily the 4 times it has happened it has been while driving in a straight path and not going on a turn in which the door could fully open and cause an accident or someone or something to fall out of vehicle. In Looking at the 2015/2017 recalls, Ford is replacing the "Pawl spring tab" My vehicle thereby fails to comply with the requirements (FMVSS) 206, DOOR LOCKS AND DOOR RETENTION COMPONENTS. Unfortunately there are no recalls at the moment.

1) I have a 2016 Ford Mustang. Within first 5k miles the reverse camera did not operate intermittently. Was told by dealer that no fix was available in 2016. The car is driven summer months only. As years went on I had same defect. They didn’t have a loaner available or I would have to rent a car myself for them to service the said defect. I left it at dealer a few times afterwards then they said they could not duplicate defect. Now they are charging it against my extended warranty and wanted me to pay deductible. I argued with service manager and deductible was waived. Here we are 2021 and defect still remains. Vehicle currently had 23k miles. 2) Also, had to buy new tires already. The Pirelli P-zero tires had major sidewall cracking. 3) Hood of vehicle has corrosion. Contacted Ford corporate with claim. Vehicle is out of warranty as of January 2021. They will make partial payment but not all.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Mustang. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the passenger and driver’s side doors would open inadvertently even though the doors were locked. The dealer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the Vin. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the Vin. The failure mileage was 85,000.

Passenger door opens randomly while driving at highway speeds. Lights come on door unlatched and opens. Even when no one is in the passenger seat.

Seat heater and cooler no longer working. Problem looks like the module burned the connector. Plastic female end is burnt black and the plastic is melted. Concerned that this is a fire safety issue

Consistent failure of mustang air conditioning evaporator consistent with Ford TSB18-2256. Evaporator has failed 3 times, leading to at least one A/C compressor replacement. Failed evaporators are not available. Vehicle has less the 40k miles. It is unsafe for driver during extremely hot days. The problem has been reproduced and serviced by ford dealerships. There were no major symptoms prior to failure. Just slowly degrading AC performance.

Random smell of burning electrical wiring soo strong I thought the car was catching fire, I had to pull over and check for smoke but didn’t find any. A few days later I realized the heated seats stopped working… did some Research and found the plug connector underneath the passenger seat melted.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Mustang. The contact stated while driving 35 mph, the contact heard an unlatching sound and an alert message of the door being ajar. The contact noticed that the front passenger’s side door was slightly opened. The contact pulled over to the side road and closed the door however, the failure recurred several times. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who inspected the vehicle and diagnosed the failure with the door latches. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 50,200.

BACKUP CAMERA NOT WORKING. CAR HAS POOR VISIBILITY WHEN BACKING UP WITHOUT THE CAMERA. MESSAGE SAYS CAMERA NOT AVAILABLE. THE DEALER SAID IT’S THE WIRING HARNESSES AND WANTS $900.00 TO REPLACE . FORD HAS BAD DESIGN WITH THE SHORT CABLE IN THE TRUNK AND THE MATERIAL USED TO WRAP THE WIRES.

DOORS OPEN FLYING WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION

THE REAR CAMERA HAS GONE OFF AND ON FOR MONTHS NOW IT DOES NOT WORK AT ALL..THE DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME THERE HAVE BEEN MANY WITH THIS PROBLEM THE HARNESS IN THE TRUNK GOES UP AND DOWN WITH THE OPENING AND CLOSING OF THE TRUNK CREATING STRAIN ON THE WIRES CAUSING CAMERA FAILURE.. DEALERSHIP WANTS 1000 TO FIX THIS AND MY CAR HAS 32000 MILES ON IT THE EMERGENCY BREAK STICKS BECAUSE THE SLEVING AROUND IT GETS STUCK NOT ALLOWING THE RELEASE OF THE BREAK

THE HEATED AND AIR CONDITIONED SEATS STOPPED WORKING ALTHOUGH THE DASH INDICATOR SHOWS THAT IT IS ON. A SEARCH OF THE INTERNET SHOWS THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON 2015-2016 MUSTANG MODELS. THE CONNECTOR UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT SHOWS A SEVERELY BURNED CONNECTION AS INDICATED IN THE ATTACHED PHOTO. THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY SERIOUS AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED VIA A RECALL.*DT

HEATED AND COOLED SEATS STOPPED WORKING. I CHECKED SOME FORUMS AND FOUND OUT IT WAS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. THIS PIN FOR THE GROUND ON THE WIRE ASSEMBLY THAT CONTROLS THE SEAT IS THE ONLY ONE, AND IT IS COMMON FOR IT TO COMPLETELY BURN OUT AS SEEN IN THE PICTURE. AS IT'S IN THE CABIN, UNDERNEATH THE PASSENGER SEAT, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR IT TO BE BURNING THIS WAY.

TRANSMISSION WILL GO INTO NEUTRAL WHILE TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY 280 A HIGHLY TRAVELED STATE HIGHWAY IN ALABAMA, CAUSED BY A BAD TRANSMISSION OUTPUT SENSOR

HEATED COOLED SEATS ARE NOT WORKING. CHECKED THE CONNECTOR PAN UNDERNEATH THE SEAT AND THERE'S A BURNT AREA ON BOTH THE PIN AND ON THE MODULE

UPDATE INFORMATION THE PROBLEM IS THE BACKUP CAMERA. POOR DESIGN AND INSTALLATION WITH POSSIBLE SHORTNESS OF LENGTH OF WIRING CREATING TOO MUCH TENSION. ANY DEVICE SAFETY DEVICES NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED. THE OTHER PROBLEM LAST MARCH I HAD TO PAY IS THE THIRD BACKUP LIGHT BECAUSE OF POOR WIRING DESIGN.

L LAST MARCH 2020 I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR INSPECTION AT MY FORD DEALERSHIP (WYNNE FORD HAMPTON VA) AND INSPECTOR FAILED MY STATE INSPECTION BECAUSE OF THE BACKUP LIGHT NOT WORKING. THE ELECTRICAL WAS REPAIRED. NOW MY BACKUP CAMERA IS NOT WORKING. SAME PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRICAL WIRING. OSHA STD HAS A QUALITY WORKMANSHIP. FORD HAS MADE A POOR WORKMANSHIP FOR THESE SAFETY DEVICES. NEED A RECALL AT NO EXPENSE FOR CONSUMERS FOR THEIR POOR WORKMANSHIP RELATED TO SAFETY. TOO MANY INDIVIDUALS REPORTED WITH THE SAME ISSUES.

IN MY 2016 FORD MUSTANG ECOBOOST CONVERTIBLE, THE PASSENGER DOOR HAS OPENED (UNLATCHED) MANY TIMES WHILE I HAVE BEEN DRIVING. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN WRECKED DUE TO MY KNOWLEDGE AND THE CARFAX. THIS DOESN'T OCCUR OFTEN, BUT WHEN IT OCCURS, IT HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES IN THAT DAY. IT USUALLY OCCURS WHEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. THERE IS A RECALL OUT FOR 2015 FASTBACK MUSTANGS FOR THIS ISSUE. BUT I PRESUME THERE IS A SIMILAR ISSUE WITH 2016S.

APPROXIMATELY 31,000 MILES BUT WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED DUE TO LAPSE OF TIME - HE A/C HAS FAILED DUE TO WHAT THE DEALERSHIP CALLED A KNOWN ISSUE; HOWEVER, EVEN THOUGH MILEAGE WOULD STILL BE UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE THE CAR IS GREATER THAN 3 YEARS OLD THEY WILL NOT COVER THIS COSTLY REPAIR

BURNED ELECTRICAL CONNECTER CONTROLLING FRONT SEAT HEATING AND COOLING. THE FOLLOWING IS FROM THE REPAIR WORK ORDER: #1 91MBZS SEATS INTERNAL GUEST STATES HAVC FOR FRONT SEATS NOT GETTING COLD OR HOT BURN CONNECTOR GOING TO THE HVAC CONTROL UNIT UNDER THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I STARTED OFF MY CHECKING POWER TO THE HVAC MODULE TO SEE IF THERE WAS A SHORT BEFORE THE CONTROL UNIT. I REMOVED THE SEAT AND HVAC MODULE TO CLEAN THE PINS ON IT THAT WERE AFFECTED BY THE CONNECTOR. AFTER THAT I REPLACED SEAT HARNESS THAT GOES TO THE HVAC CONTROL MODULE. I THEN PUT THE SEAT BACK IN AND CLEARED THE CODES. BOTH THE HEATED AND AIR CONDITIONED FUNCTION OF THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT WORK. QTY PART NUMBER DESCRIPTION UNIT TOTAL 1 MBEU5Z14A699C WIRE ASSY INTERNAL TOTAL PARTS: 0.00

IN MY 2016 FORD MUSTANG ECO-BOOST, I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE AIR WAS NOT AS COOL AS IT WAS IN THE PAST. I DID NOT PAY MUCH ATTENTION AS I DID NOT HAVE FAR TO DRIVE. THE NEXT TIME I STARTED THE VEHICLE THE AIR CONDITIONING HAD STARTED TO BLOW WARM AIR, AFTER AWHILE I NOTICED A WHITE FILM ON THE INTERIOR OR THE CABIN. I LOOKED UP SEVERAL FORUMS ON WHAT THIS ISSUE COULD BE AND THERE ARE MULTIPLE MUSTANG OWNERS OF THIS YEAR THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING AND IT SEEMS TO BE THE EVAPORATOR CORE. SO I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC AND THEY INFORMED ME IT WOULD COST $1900 TO FIX THE SYSTEM DUE TO THE LABOR OF TAKING OUT THE DASH. I HAVE BEEN A FORD OWNER ALL MY LIFE AND THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION, CLUNKING AND KNOCKING FROM CLUTCH WHILE DRIVING, WILL NOT ENGAGE INTO GEAR SMOOTHLY, LOCKED OUT OF GEAR DURING ACCELERATION, KNOCKING FROM TRANSMISSION WHEN SHUTTING VEHICLE OFF, JERKING AND HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATING AT LOW RPMS, INTERMITTENT VIBRATION WHEN DECELERATING,

WHILE COMING TO A STOP WITH THE CLUTCH PRESSED IN THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY TURN OFF INTERMITTENTLY. THIS HAS NOW JUST BEGAN HAPPENING, ALTHOUGH IT HAS NOW HAPPENED TO ME TWICE IN 1 MONTHS TIME. I HAVE ALSO BEEN READING ON S550 MUSTANG FORUMS (YEARS 2015 - PRESENT) THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THIS. IT SEEMS LIKE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE OR SOMETHING AS THERE ARE PEOPLE WITH COMPLETELY STOCK CARS THAT ARE AFFECTED BY THIS, AND ALSO PEOPLE WITH 2018+ NEWER MUSTANGS AS WELL.

AFTER HAVING THE CAR FOR 5 MONTHS (59,000 MI) THE ENGINE BLEW UP WHILE DRIVING 60MPH ON A STATE HIGHWAY AND DROPPED ALL OF ITS OIL. THE ECOBOOST MUSTANGS ARE INCREDIBLY PRONE TO THIS ISSUE AND FORD IS JUST SWEEPING THEM UNDER THE RUG. FORD HAD MY CAR FOR 4 MONTHS WHEN IT WAS MISFIRING (WHICH IS HOW "ECOBOOM" BEGINS) AND REPLACED ALMOST EVERYTHING UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY MINUS THE ENGINE, TRANSMISSION AND TURBOCHARGER. WHEN I GOT THE CAR BACK IT STARTED TO JUMP TIMING THEN MISFIRE THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STOPPED. THEN THE ENGINE BLEW UP.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING I HAD MY DEFROSTER ON, AND I NOTICED THE PASSENGER SIDE STARTED TO FOG UP, BUT NOT THE DRIVER SIDE. WHEN I GOT TO A RED LIGHT, I FELT THE PASSENGER SIDE BLOWING COLD AIR INSTEAD OF HOT AIR WHICH CAUSED ME NOT TO SEE WELL DUE TO HALF THE WINDSHIELD BEING FOGGED UP. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, I FOUND OUT THAT A LOT OF OWNERS WITH 15-17 MUSTANGS HAVE THIS ISSUE AND IT HAS TO DO WITH THE BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR. I REPLACED THAT PART AND INSTALLED IT AND IT WORKED FOR 2 DAYS AND WENT OUT AGAIN. AS IT GETS COLDER I FEAR THIS IS GOING TO CREATE MORE OF A SAFETY HAZARD. I TRULY FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL BY FORD CONSIDERING THIS IS A SAFETY FUNCTION.

EVAPORATOR CORE LEAK

THE HEATED/COOLED SEATS STOPPED WORKING. FOUND A BURNED PIN IN THE CONNECTOR UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT.

REAR VIEW CAMERA FAILURE, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO REVERSE THE REAR VIEW CAMERA WILL GO BLANK, OR GET DISTORTED . BECAUSE OF THIS IT SEVERELY DIMINISHES REAR VISIBILITY.

AC HAS STOPPED WORKING... AGAIN! CAR HAS BEEN REPAIRED TWICE UNDER WARRANTY. NOW OUT OF WARRANTY BECAUSE OF AGE. CAR HAS 23K MILES 2 TIMES FULL REFRIGERANT CHARGE HAS VENTED TO ATMOSPHERE, A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW! THOUSANDS, IF NOT TENS OF THOUSAND MUSTANGS ARE AFFECTED

I SEE THE NEWS ABOUT THE NEW RECALL OF REAR-VIEW CAMERAS GOING BLANK AND NOT SHOWING IMAGES. THE NEW RECALL IS ONLY FOR 2020 MODELS BUT MY 2016 MODEL HAS HAD THE SAME ISSUE FOR THE LAST YEAR AND 1/2. I ONLY HAVE 20K MILES ON MY MUSTANG. REAR VIEW CAMERA WORKS SOMETIMES BUT OTHER TIMES IS BLANK AND MESSAGE ON SCREEN SAYS CAN'T DISPLAY IMAGE. OCCURS WHEN IN REVERSED WHILE BACKING UP.

2016 FORD MUSTANG V6 CONVERTIBLE WITH 75,000 MILES. I WENT INTO THE GAS STATION FOR 3 MINUTES, CAME OUT AND CAR WOULD CRANK BUT NOT TURN OVER. CAR NEEDED TO BE TOWED TO AUTO MECHANIC. TURNS OUT THE FUEL PUMP WAS GARBAGE. THE CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. RIDICULOUS. ALSO, AROUND 40,000 MILES, IT STARTED TO SOUND LIKE I WAS DRIVING A COVERED WAGON, AS EVERY BUMP IN THE ROAD MADE THE CAR SOUND AS IF IT WAS GOING TO FALL APART. THE MECHANIC TELLS ME 3 OF THE 4 CONTROL ARMS (SUSPENSION) ARE COMPLETELY SHOT. AGAIN, RIDICULOUS. JUNK CAR. I'VE HAD DOZENS OF CARS AND MANY WITH WELL OVER 120,000 MILES AND NEVER ONCE HAVE I DEALT WITH A FUEL PUMP NOR CONTROL ARMS. AGAIN, THE CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. ALL PARTS FOR THESE 2 FIXES HAVE BEEN ON BACK ORDER FOR A MONTH. I MUST NOT BE THE ONLY ONE DEALING WITH THESE 2 ISSUES. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL!

THIS MODEL HAS KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE A/C SYSTEM. A DEFECT IN THE EVAPORATOR CORE CAUSES POOR A/C PERFORMANCE, FOR WHICH THERE IS A POSTED TSB. I BELIEVE THERE IS POTENTIALLY A SAFETY ISSUE HERE WHICH WOULD WARRANT A RECALL. SINCE THE REFRIGERANT LEAKS INTO THE CABIN FROM THE EVAPORATOR CORE, THE WINDSCREEN FORMS A RESIDUE WHICH OBSTRUCTS DRIVER VISIBILITY, ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE IS GLARE FROM THE SUN. DRIVER VISIBILITY IS A FACTOR IN THE PROBABILITY OF AUTOMOTIVE ACCIDENTS, THEREFORE THE COMMONLY DEFECTIVE A/C SYSTEM DIRECTLY IMPACTS THE SAFETY OF THIS MODEL. TO MAINTAIN PERFORMANCE OF THE A/C SYSTEM, IT MUST BE TOPPED OFF. BUT VISIBILITY SUFFERS AND THE WINDSCREEN MUST CONSTANTLY BE CLEANED. ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE IS THAT REFRIGERANT THAT IS LEAKED IS CHRONICALLY INHALED BY OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE. I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THE TOXICITY OF R134A, BUT I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT IT BELONGS IN PEOPLES LUNGS. IF IS IT DANGEROUS TO DO SO, THEN I MUST REITERATE, THE COMMONLY DEFECTIVE A/C SYSTEM DIRECTLY IMPACTS THE SAFETY OF THIS MODEL. I SINCERELY HOPE THAT THIS ISSUE GETS MORE ATTENTION AND A SOLUTION IS PROPOSED. THANK YOU AND BEST REGARDS. *TR

AIR CONDITIONING IS FAILING AFTER 60,000 MILES. SUSPECT IT IS THE ALREADY WELL DOCUMENTED EVAPORATOR CORE GOING BAD.

WATER PUMP LEAKED COOLANT REQUIRING REPLACEMENT.

THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR UNLATCHES AND THE ALARM THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN COMES ON WHILE DRIVING 70 MILES PER HOUR ON THE FREEWAY.THIS HAS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES IN A 3 DAY SPAN WHILE TRAVELING ON A ROAD TRIP. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM AND FIX THE ISSUE.

AT APPROXIMATELY 61,000 MILES, THE ORIGINAL ENGINE STOPPED WORKING. CYLINDER #3 GAVE OUT. POSSIBLY A LSPI CONDITION. THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED UNDER CPO WARRANTY. MY NEW ENGINE HAS NOW GIVEN OUT AT 36,000 MILES. ON THE 1ST ENGINE, I CAME FROM FORD DEALER AFTER COMPLAINING OF CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS COMING ON. OIL WAS CHANGED, CODES CLEARED. I DROVE APPROXIMATELY 4 CITY BLOCKS, ACCELERATED FROM A STOP LIGHT, AND THE ENGINE STARTED BLOWING WHITE SMOKE AND I PULLED IT OFF THE ROAD. THE ENGINE WAS DETERMINED TO HAVE TO BE FULLY REPLACED, AT 61,000 MILES, A LONG BLOCK, NOT A SHORT BLOCK. ON MY SECOND ENGINE, WHICH HAS APPROXIMATELY 35,000 MILES ON IT, I WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND AN ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR WAS DRIVABLE. AFTER PARKING IT, THE NEXT TIME I STARTED IT UP IT WAS BLOWING WHITE SMOKE AGAIN. I DIAGNOSES AT THE DEALER IS UNDERWAY.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE DOORS WILL POP OPEN. THIS HAS HAPPENED A NUMBER OF TIMES RANDOMLY. SEEMS THE DRIVERS DOOR POPS OPEN THEN A SHORT TIME LATER THE PASSENGER DOOR POPS OPEN. THE TIMES IT HAS HAPPENED HAVE BEEN A COUPLE HOURS INTO A TRIP AT HIGHWAY SPEED ON RELATIVELY FLAT SURFACES.

THE STEERING IN MY 2016 FORD MUSTANG ECO BOOST WOULD BIND AT THE 11 O'CLOCK POSITION AND WOULD TAKE MUCH FORCE TO RETURN TO THE 12 O'CLOCK POSITION.THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE SITTING STILL. I RETURNED THE CAR TO FORD FOR SERVICE, WHO TOLD ME I HAVE A DEFECTIVE "STEERING GEAR" AND REPLACE THE STEERING GEAR FOR $3,000.00.

I HAVE A 2016 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE ECO-BOOST WHICH IS JUST RECENTLY STARTED HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY PASSENGER DOOR OPENING WHILE GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THE FIRST INSTANCE HAPPENED A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO AND THE LAST ONE HAPPENED LAST WEEK ON JULY 22, 2020. THE SENSOR SYSTEM IN MY CAR DID ALERT US THAT THE DOOR WAS OPEN. I HAVE READ ON THE NEWS THAT THE MUSTANGS ARE BEING RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT WHEN I CHECKED MY VIN I SEE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME HOW I CAN GET THEIRS REPAIRED UNDER A RECALL SINCE IT IS HAPPENING TO MY VEHICLE. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. IN THE FIRST INSTANCE WE WERE COMING TO AN INTERSECTION AND WAS SLOWING DOWN FOR THE STOP LIGHT. THE SECOND INSTANCE WE WERE GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 65 MPH. WE HAD TO GO INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE TO SHUT THE DOOR. IN THE FIRST INSTANCE WE HAD THE TOP DOWN AND IN THE SECOND INSTANCE WE HAD THE TOP UP AND THE WINDOWS ROLLED UP.

AIR CONDITIONER WAS BLOWING HOT AIR WHILE STATIONARY . SERVICE REPAIR STATED THERE WAS A LEAK IN THE EVAPORATOR COIL AND TO REPAIR IT THE COST IS $1700. BECAUSE THE COIL IS LOCATED BEHIND THE DASH THE WHOLE DASH HAS TO BE REMOVED TO GET TO THE COIL HENCE THE COSTLY REPAIR DUE TO WHERE THAT EVAPORATOR COIL IS LOCATED. SERVICE REPAIRMAN AT DEALERSHIP ORIGINALLY SAID ALTERNATOR WAS THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT STILL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED PER DEALERSHIP. THE PROBLEM WITH THE EVAPORATOR COIL APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN MUSTANGS WITH AS LITTLE AS 2000 MILES ON THEM. I FIRST NOTICED THIS PROBLEM ALMOST A YEAR AGO WHEN MY CAR HAD ABOUT 37,000 MILES ON IT. DID NOT HAVE IT REPAIRED.

THE AC IN MY 2016 FORD MUSTANG HAS STOPPED WORKING AND I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE TO FIND THAT MANY 2016 FORD MUSTANG OWNERS ARE HAVING SIMILAR ISSUES. MY CAR IS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY AND ONLY HAS 20,000 MILES ON IT YET IS HAVING THIS MAJOR ISSUE.

ALL UPPER AND LOWER CONTROL ARMS HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED ON FRONT OF CAR DUE TO SQUEAKING AND POPPING NOISES COMING FROM THEM. ALSO HEATED AND COOLED SEATS WENT OUT DUE TO PLUG SHORTING OUT.

CAR MOTION AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. CAR WAS TOAD FROM THE FREEWAY TO DRIVERS HOUSE. CAR LANDED SIDE OF THE FREEWAY AT A DITCH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS MORE THAN 80 MPH, A MESSAGE DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATING THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND PASSENGER'S SIDE DOORS WERE AJAR. THE CONTACT STATED WIND COULD BE HEARD ENTERING THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON 4 TIMES. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. LAMARQUE FORD LOCATED AT 3101 WILLIAMS BLVD, KENNER, LA 70065, AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.*DT
