PAINT IS PEELING OFF THE HOOD OF MY 2007 FORD MUSTANG. I NOTICED THE 06-07 MUSTANGS HAVE A SIMILAR PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER IT IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE AN ALUMINUM HOOD. THESE CARS SHOULD BE RECALLED, AND THE HOOD SHOULD BE PAINTED FOR FREE BECAUSE PAINT SHOULD LAST LONGER THAN THREE YEARS. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH AFTER MY ACCELERATOR GOT STUCK ON A 2007 FORD MUSTANG V6. I HAD JUST LEFT MY HOUSE WHEN I SLOWLY ACCELERATED AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE PEDAL GOT STUCK AND WAS UNABLE TO STOP UNTIL I CRASHED INTO A NEIGHBOR'S ROCK WALL. ALTHOUGH THE IMPACT WAS HARD I SUFFERED MINOR INJURIES FROM THE AIR BAG, OTHER THAN THAT I AM LUCKY TO HAVE SURVIVED. I WAS THE SCARIEST THING I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. *TR

TIRES, TIRES:VALVE
I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 FORD MUSTANG (V6) ON THE HIGHWAY (RT 202-PA) WHEN THE "LOW TIRE PRESSURE" INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OFF AT THE FIRST AVAILABLE EXIT (CHESTERBROOK BLVD) AND WHEN I TURNED ONTO THE OVER PASS MY REAR PASSENGER TIRE EXPLODED LEAVING THE RIM COMPLETELY EXPOSED. HAD THE CAR TOWED (POLICE CAME BECAUSE CAR WAS IN DANGEROUS SPOT) AND CHANGED THE TIRE. APPROX 6 HOURS LATER I CHECKED THE PRESSURE IN ALL OF THE TIRES (WAS WITHIN LIMITS) AND SET OFF HOME ON PA TURNPIKE. 2 MILES ON THE TURNPIKE MY DRIVERS FRONT WHEEL WENT COMPLETELY FLAT. HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO MY HOME. ALL THE TIRES STEM VALVES ON MY FACTORY INSTALLED PIRELLI P ZERO NERO TIRES WERE ROTTEN (ALL EXCEPT MY REAR DRIVER WHEEL WHICH WAS REPLACED DUE TO A SEPARATE FLAT APPROX 6 MOTHS PRIOR). PER CONSUMER REPORTS WEBSITE, THE TIRE STEM VALVES WERE RECALLED. (08TR414030). I HAVE THE 3 VALVES IN MY POSSESSION. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED ABOUT THE RECALL. I REMEMBER THE NEWS OF THE ROLLOVER DEATHS IN 2008. THE FORD SERVICE SHOP I TOOK THE CAR TO (TOM MASANO FORD, READING, PA) DENIED KNOWLEDGE OF THE DEFECT OR RECALL. BLAMED IT ON AN IMPACT OR "DRIVING THE CAR THROUGH SOMETHING DEEP". I WOUND UP GETTING ALL OF MY TIRES REPLACE AT PEP BOYS. (I HAVE THE TIRE DOT AND VIN BUT DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THEM AT THE MOMENT. I CAN PROVIDE IF CONTACTED.) *TR

EQUIPMENT, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY
SIMILAR TO THE 2010 FUSION PROBLEM OF STUCK ACCELERATOR, I HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THE 2007 FORD MUSTANG GT. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED EVER SINCE I RECEIVED THE MATS IN JUNE OF 2007 AND HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES! THE ALL-WEATHER MAT IS SITTING ON TOP OF THE STANDARD MAT AND SLIPS FORWARD. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS DEPRESSED FULLY, IT DOES GET STUCK UNDER THE ALL-WEATHER MAT. IN ONE INCIDENT, I WAS ON A FREEWAY GOING TO PASS A VEHICLE. WHEN I FLOORED THE ACCELERATOR, IT STUCK! IN A MUSTANG, YOU CAN IMAGINE THE AMOUNT OF ACCELERATION INVOLVED AND I WAS UP OVER 120MPH IN SECONDS! I HAD TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE TO BEGIN DECELERATION. FRIGHTENING! *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I HAVE AN 07 FORD MUSTANG GT. IT HAS A LITTLE OVER 18000 MILES ON IT AND THE THROTTLE HAS STUCK SEVERAL TIMES. I PRESS THE BRAKE AND REACH DOWN AND PULL UP THE PEDAL. THE DEALER FIRST TRIED TO TELL ME IT WAS THE FLOOR MAT. IT IS NOT, THE FLOOR MAT DOES NOT COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE PEDAL. THROUGH A BBB ARBITRATION FORD WAS TOLD TO REPLACE THE VEHICLE. THE SECOND VEHICLE DOES THE SAME THING. WHEN PRESSED TO THE FLOOR THE PEDAL STICKS AND THE CAR CONTINUES TO ACCELERATE. IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM THAT THE DEALER CANNOT REPLICATE, SO THEY CANNOT FIX IT. I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH FAST REFLEXES AND SHORT LEGS SO I CAN HOLD THE BRAKE ON AND PULL UP THE GAS PEDAL WHILE KEEPING CONTROL OF THE CAR. THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS GIVEN UP TRYING TO REPAIR IT. THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. THE PROBLEM STILL REMAINS. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
2007 FORD MUSTANG-V-6, THE SECTION JUNCTION BOXES AND COMPUTER,WIRING HARNESSES HAVE LEAKS THAT ARE CAUSED BY A KNOWN FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF GROMMETS FROM THE DOOR AND DRAIN HOLES WHICH DRIP INTO AND SHORT OUT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS AND LIGHTS AND ABS COMPONENTS. ALL LIGHTS GO OUT. ALL INSIDE INSTRUMENTS SHUT DOWN. 800.00 TO REPAIR. FORD HAS A TSB BUT WILL NOT ASSIST. IT CAUSES MAJOR PROBLEMS REAR DEFROSTER AND WIPERS.

WATER LEAK ON PASSENGER SIDE UNDER DASH, SOAKING CARPET, 1ST INCIDENT BUT AFTER INVESTIGATING FURTHER I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE, COULD LEAD TO ELECTRICAL FAILURE. WHY ISN'T IT REQUIRED TO SUPPLY THE PURCHASER OF VEHICLE ANY TSB THAT HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR SAID VEHICLE. I COULD HAVE POSSIBLY PREVENTED THIS IF I HAD BEEN MADE AWARE OF THE POTENTIAL PROBLEM. THE RELEASE OF ANY TSB SHOULD BE MANDATORY!!!! *TR
