POWER TRAIN
THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT GO INTO OVERDRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY SO I PULLED OVER AND THEN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE MANUALLY SWITCHED FROM GEAR TO GEAR AND THEN DROVE FINE. THE THE VEHICLE STARTS DOING THE SAME THING AFTER WARMING UP. NOW REVERSE AND 3RD ARE OUT WHEN THE VEHICLE IS WARM. IVE HAD SENSORS BANDS AND OTHER THINGS REPLACED. EVERYTHING SHORT OF A NEW TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN REPLACED. NOW I CANT FIND A TRANSMISSION REPAIR SHOP THAT WILL REBUILD IT DUE TO SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH THESE TRANSMISSIONS THEY DO NOT WANT TO PUT A WARRANTY ON IT. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM. IT NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. SOMETHING IS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE OR LICENSED TECHNICIANS WOULD REPAIR THEM AND WOULDNT CARE TO OFFER A WARRANTY. MY VEHICLE HAS HAD TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS OFF AND ON SINCE 2017. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT ALL THE COMPLAINTS HAVE NOT RESULTED IN A RECALL.

STRUCTURE:BODY
I HAVE A 2007 FORD MUSTANG WITH 8101.9 MILES. I ONLY DRIVE THIS VEHICLE DURING WARM SEASONS. I NOTICE THIS SPRING THAT MY REAR WIDOWS IS PULLING AWAY FROM THE CONVERTIBLE TOP.I CALLED A WINDOW REPAIR SHOP FOR WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A SIMPLE REPAIR AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE ENTIRE TOP WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE TOLD ME THAT DUE TO THE CONVERTIBLE TOP SHRINK OVER TIME THAT THE WINDOW PULLS AWAY FROM THE WINDOW. THEY STATED THAT FORDS HAS CORRECT THIS PROBLEM WITH NEAR MODELS THEN MINE TO STOP THIS ISSUE. HE TOLD ME TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE ON MY CAR IT WOULD COST $2000.00. I FIND THAT NOT FAIR THAT I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOE THIS ISSUE SINCE ITS A DEFECT IN THE CONVERTIBLE TOP AND NOT MY FAULT. THIS ISSUE HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS PRODUCT AND NOT MINE. I CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT HELP ME. SO BY THIS ISSUE DEALS WITH THE REAR WINDOW AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE, I AM REPORTING THIS DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE. MY CAR WAS IN STORAGE AWAY FROM THE ELEMENTS AND THE TOP SHRUNK IN SIZE AND CAUSED THIS TO HAPPEN. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS DRIVING AROUND OUR LOCAL LAKE DOING 25 MPH. I HAD JUST COME AROUND A CURVE AND WAS HEADED FOR ANOTHER CURVE PRETTY QUICKLY. ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE CAR STARTED SPEEDING UP ON ITS OWN. I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL AND I HIT THE BRAKES TO TRY TO SLOW DOWN AND NOTHING HAPPENED. THE CAR CONTINUED TO SPEED UP ON ITS OWN. MY SPEED GOT UP TO ABOUT 40 MPH WHEN I CAME UP ON A CURVE. I SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AGAIN AND TRIED TO TURN THE WHEEL BUT I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE CAR AT THIS POINT. IT CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AND I MISSED THE CORNER AND LANDED IN A POND ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE LAKE IN ABOUT 3 1/2 FEET OF WATER. MY CAR WAS THEN SUBMERGED UP THE TOP OF THE TRUNK IN WATER.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
EVERY TIME YOU GO TO PUT FUEL IN THE CAR, THE PUMP WILL KICK OFF LIKE THE FUEL TANK IS FULL BUT IT'S NOT. THEN THE WHOLE TIME YOU ARE TRYING TO PUMP GAS IT WILL KICK OFF PROBABLY 20 MORE TIMES UNTIL YOU ARE DONE. THIS IS BEEN ONGOING EVERY SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED. WHAT SHOULD BE A FIVE MINUTE JOB TO FILL UP YOUR GAS TANK CAN TAKE AS MUCH AS 20 MINUTES. IHAD ANOTHER 2007 FORD MUSTANG THAT DID THE VERY SAME THING BUT I RAN OFF A LOW SHOULDER AND PART OF THE ESTIMATE WAS THAT I HAD TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK AND IRONICALLY I NEVER HAD THAT ISSUE AGAIN ON THAT CAR. I OWNING 2 OF THIS SPECIFIC CARS BEING OF THE SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL, I FEEL IT'S DEFINITELY A DESIGN OR RECALL ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED

FORD OEM PART NO.: 8R3Z-7210-C - SHIFTER ASSEMBLY AUTOMATIC CONSOLE SHIFTIER BLIND MAY BIND UP IN THE TRACK OR BREAK COMPLETELY LIKE MINE DID. THIS CAN CAUSE DIFFICULTY IN THE SHIFTER GOING IN TO GEARS OR PARK, OR SHOW PROPER P R N D 3 2 1 SELECTION ON SELECTOR. A BROKEN BLIND CAN ALLOW THINGS TO FALL DOWN INTO THE GEAR SECTOR, THAT COULD CAUSE GEAR SELECTION OR PARK NOT TO WORK PROPERLY. STATIONARY OR MOVING I DON'T SEE HOW THIS IS A THIS IS A UNSAFE CONDITION OF THE PART. THE WHOLE PART HAS TO BE REPLACED AT $283 + LABOR UNKNOWN AS THEY DO NOT SELL REPLACEMENT REBUILD PARTS TO FIX THE AUTOMATIC SHIFTER.

I AM STILL RECEIVING AIRBAG NOTICES AND FORD HAS NOT SUPPLIED THE NECESSARY REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS TO MY DEALERSHIP. IT HAS BEEN OVER 3 YEARS OF NOTICES. FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE DOES NOT RESPOND. I CANNOT ACCESS ANYONE BY PHONE OR ONLINE. I WANT THE NOTICES TO STOP OR TO INCLUDE THE INFO ABOUT WHEN THE AIRBAGS CAN BE REPLACED. FORD IS PLACING THIS CUSTOMER IN DAILY DANGER. ONE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP EVEN TOLD ME TO KEEP DRIVING MY CAR, IT IS OK!!! THE NOTICES SAY REPLACEMENT IS URGENT BUT DO NOT SUPPLY THE AIRBAGS TO DEALERSHIPS. FORD IS SCAMMING THIS CUSTOMER.
