IT IS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN FORD'S CONSUMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N03. THEY WILL NOT COVER THE MUSTANG, AS IT WAS NOT PART OF THE PROGRAM. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN. *TR

AIR BAGS
THERE HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENT. THIS 2007 MUSTANG WAS REGISTERED IN THE STATE OF MICHIGAN BUT WAS KEPT IN BONITA SPRINGS, FLORIDA CONTINUOUSLY FROM 2009 THROUGH 2013. MAINTENANCE WORK FOR THE MUSTANG WAS PROVIDED BY THE LOCAL FORD DEALER IN ESTERO, FLORIDA DURING THAT TIME. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY BEEN DRIVEN 8,698 MILES. OUR CONCERN IS THAT ONLY THOSE VEHICLE REGISTERED IN STATES SUCH AS FLORIDA ARE BEING COVERED FOR THIS VERY DANGEROUS AIR BAG PROBLEM. WE BELIEVE THE RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO AT LEAST VEHICLES USED IN THE AFFECTED STATES. *TR

POWER TRAIN
THE VEHICLE WHILE SHIFTING GEARS IS IN 3RD GEAR IS CHANGING RPM'S. THE RPM'S ARE MOVING VASTLY FROM LOWER END TO TOP END. THE CAR HAS VERY LOW MILES AND RECENTLY PURCHASED 7 MONTHS AGO AND ONLY PLACED 3000 MILES SINCE PURCHASE. THE WARRANTY COMPANY WILL NOT COVER THE PROBLEM. I REACHED OUT TO FORD BECAUSE THERE ARE SOME FORUMS THAT STATE THIS PART THAT IS MAKING CAR DO THIS IS THE CLUTCH AND GIVES OUT VERY EARLY AFTER MANUFACTURING OF THE CAR, THEY SAID THEY ARE UNABLE TO HELP ME BUT IF THERE IS A RECALL THEY WILL LET US KNOW. WE FEEL THIS PART IS DEFECTIVE TO GIVE OUT IN 3000 MILES SINCE PURCHASE AND SEE THERE ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH SAME COMPLAINTS ONLINE. *TR

AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS, STRUCTURE:BODY
I STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, THEN MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN, MY CAR STARTED SLIDING ON THE ICE IN THE STREET, I TURNED THE WHEELS HARD LEFT TO AVOID A CAR PARKED ON THE STREET, THEN I BELIEVE I TRIED TURNING RIGHT TO STAY ON THE STREET, UNFORTUNATELY I HIT A TREE WITH THE RIGHT SIDE OF FRONT BUMPER HARD ENOUGH TO PUSH THE WHEEL BACK ABOUT 2-3 FEET. THE AIR BAG DID NOT GO OFF AND THE SEATBELT ALLOWED MY CHEST TO HIT THE STEERING WHEELING CAUSING A CHEST WALL CONTUSION AND EXACERBATION OF MY LOW BACK PAIN (I HAD A FUSION OF 2 DISCS WITH COMPLICATIONS OF CELLULITIS AND OSTEOMYELITIS POST-OP), ALONG WITH PAIN IN MY LEFT HIP REPLACEMENT BECAUSE MY KNEE HIT THE DASH. I ALSO HAVE HAD OFF AND ON NUMBNESS IN MY RIGHT LITTLE FINGER WHICH I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS FROM SOMETHING IN MY SHOULDER OR SOMETHING IN MY NECK SINCE THE SURGERY. I WILL HAVE TO LET MY DOCTOR KNOW THIS WHEN I SEE HIM AS A FOLLOW-UP FROM THE ER. I ALSO WILL BE LETTING THE DOCTOR OR N.P. I SEE AT THE PAIN CLINIC I GO TO OF THIS FACT. THE ER PROVIDER ALSO SAID I HAD SOME DEGREE OF "WHIPLASH". BOTH THE AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT FAILED TO PROTECT ME FROM INJURY. I HAVE SENT A EMAIL TO FORD BUT AM WAITING FOR A RESPONSE. *TR
