FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY VEHICLE CONSTANTLY GOES INTO LIMP HOME MODE WHILE DRIVING. TURNS OFF ALL CYLINDERS EXCEPT 1 WHICH LET'S YOU DRIVE ABOUT 5MPH. ALSO WHILE MY VEHICLE IS AT IDLE IT BEGINS TO LOOSE PROPER IDLE RPM AND NEARLY STALLS UNTIL REVS BACK TO A HIGHER RPM. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THE ISSUE IS THOUGHT TO BE THE THROTTLE BODY AND THROTTLE BODY SENSOR. CURRENTLY MYMY VEHICLE IS AT THE DEALERSHIP GOING THROUGH SOME VEHICLE DIAGNOSTICS TO FIGURE OUT THE EXACT PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE VEHICLE WARRANTY AND I AM BEING CHARGED $145.00 FOR THE INITIAL INSPECTION AND THEN CHARGED BY THE HOUR TO FIX THE PROBLEM, I NOT INCLUDING PARTS. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 59,000 MILES ON IT AND IT'S ALREADY FAILING. IT APPEARS THAT NUMEROUS PEOPLE ARE HAVE THIS ISSUE AND FORD HAS YET TO RECALL AFFECTED VEHICLES.

AIR BAGS
WHY IS IT THAT NEW CARS HAVE AIRBAGS NOT INVOLVED IN RECALL, BUT THOSE OF US DRIVING WITH THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS CANNOT GET OURS REPLACED? BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT FORCING THE AUTO INDUSTRY TO DO IT! AUTO MAKERS WOULD MUCH RATHER PAY OUT TO INDIVIDUAL PHYSICALLY MAIMED OR KILLED PER LAWSUIT, THAN TO PAY THE MILLIONS TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS. SHAMEFUL ON YOUR PART!!

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WAS DRIVING AROUND 50MPH ON CITY STREETS WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN CAR LOST POWER AND WENT LIMP. WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR WAS MAKING A WEIRD NOISE UNDER THE HOOD LIKE IT WAS STRUGGLING. COULDN'T ACCELERATE AND I HAD TO COAST TO THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE ROAD. TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON AND EVERYTHING WAS OKAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE WITHIN A 8 MONTH TIME PERIOD DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. EACH TIME I TURN THE CAR ON & OFF AGAIN AND IT SEEMS TO RESET. I'VE NOTICED MY CAR HASN'T BEEN GETTING THE SAME CITY MPG AS BEFORE. IVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR 2 YEARS, I'M THE SECOND OWNER AND THIS STARTED AT ROUGHLY 62,000 MILES.

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
MY CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 31000 MILES ON IT. I"M THE SECOND OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE. 18 DAYS AGO ANTIFREEZE WAS ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. MY MECHANIC COME OVER AND EXPLAINED TO ME THAT MY WATER PUMP HAD GONE BAD. SO I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS STILL WAS UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. THEY DIAGNOSED MY CAR AND VERIFIED THAT IT WAS INDEED THE WATER PUMP AND THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER PERSON THAT WAS WAITING AHEAD OF ME FOR THE SAME THING 30 DAYS. I CALLED OTHER DEALERSHIPS AND THEY TOO WERE OUT OF WATER PUMPS. MY CONCERN IS THAT I WILL HAVE TO KEEP BUYING ANTI FREEZE EVERY OTHER DAY AND I CANNOT AFFORD THIS. THIS DEALER SHIP TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE A LOANER VEHICLE FOR ME. PLEASE HELP. THANK YOU. *TR

THERE IS A RECALL ON AIRBAGS AND MY 2 LOCAL DEALERS ARE NOT CAPABLE TO MAKE THE REPAIRS OF THIS VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION. THE DEALERS ARE STATING THAT FORD HAS FAILED TO SUPPLY THE SAFE AIRBAG CORRECTION WHICH MAKES FORD'S NEGLIGENCE ABOUT CARING FOR THE CONSUMERS A QUESTIONABLE SITUATION. TO FORD,.. YOU HAVE A LEGAL AND MORAL RESPONSIBILITY TO YOUR CUSTOMERS!!! JWF 2012 FORD MUSTANG.
