2015 FORD MUSTANG Complaints

The passenger door unlatches while the vehicle is in motion. The dealer has reported that this had already been fixed, but it is still happening. It is a major safely issue that needs to be resolved. I can provide video footage.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Mustang. The contact stated while driving approximately 55 MPH, the steering wheel seized. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact depressed the brake pedal and stopped the vehicle. The contact was unable to veer to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The vehicle was then towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the electronic steering gear assembly needed to be replaced. The dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in a recall associated with the failure. The dealer advised the contact to bring the vehicle in to be repaired at her expense. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000.

Recall: 22S06 back up camera not available. Took my mustang in for the recall and service rewired back up camera harness/wires. Week later, came went out again and upon self inspection, the dealership's repair of the wiring broke and dealership is demanding I pay for diagnostics and repairs.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Connecting rod in the engine. The car is available for inspection. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? I was traveling on a major highway at highway speeds when the engine failed. Luckily there was a wide shoulder on the section of highway I was traveling on. I could not make it to the nearest exit less than a mile away. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes a Ford Dealership Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning messages. I checked every gauge in my car when I began to lose power, and every gauge said it was within normal range. There were no earlier symptoms, and I have been told by the dealership that this is a mechanical defect.

Rubber stopper on brake sensor dry rotted and broke off. This caused the car to think I was applying the brakes when I wasn’t. It would cut the throttle while trying to maintain speed and my brake lights were always on even though I wasn’t touching the brakes or in the car for that matter.

The passenger and driver door open (ajar) occasionally at freeway speeds. It has happened 6-7 times since February.

While driving my 2015 Ford Mustang 70 mph, my passenger side door opened. I had to reach across to pull it closed and nearly lost control of my vehicle. If I had lost control of my vehicle, other motorists would have been harmed. This has happened multiple times since owning the vehicle. I took it to Ford to get it looked at & found out there were 3 safety recalls; 20S30, 15S16, & 16S30. These recalls were supposed to inspect and fix a defective door latch. If it isn’t fixed, there is potential for the door to unlatch while driving, increasing the risk of injury. This recall affected 2.15 million Ford vehicles. These include the 15 Ford Mustang, 2013-2015 Ford C Max, 2013-2015 FordEscape, 2012-2015 Ford Focus, 2015 Lincoln MKC, & 2014-2016 Ford Transit Connect I spoke with the Ford Service center in Clearwater, FL on June 9th, 2022. They inspected the door latch and stated that it needed to be changed. This defective latch should have been fixed in the previous recall. They only checked the part number. If it wasn’t a certain part number, they marked it as passing and potentially putting thousands or even millions of unsafe vehicles back on the road. My vehicle has a defective door latch and should have been replaced! Ford basically lied to the NHTSA and put millions of drivers at risk on the roads. I contacted Ford Customer Support and asked them to rectify this since it was missed they basically rushed me off the phone and told me to fix it on my own. I’m appalled that Ford would show such a lack of concern for millions of motorists. I sincerely hope the NHTSA can do something about this
