MY CAR HAS GONE INTO 'LIMP' MODE SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO ADVISED ME THAT THE ISSUE IS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY, AND IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. THIS PART HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR SEVERAL OTHER FORD MODEL VEHICLES - BUT NOT THE MUSTANG AND THEY WON'T COVER IT. IT'LL COST ME $570 TO GET THE PART REPLACED IN MY VEHICLE. THIS OCCURS WHILE DRIVING - AT ALL DIFFERENT SPEEDS - INCLUDING GOING 65+ MILES PER HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY.

APPARENT TAKATA RECALL, AND I AM HAVING TROUBLE GETTING ANYONE FROM FORD TO HELP ME GET IT DONE. FIRST NOTICE OF ANY SORT RECEIVED IN MAIL FROM FORD ON JUNE 27, 2016. SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 15S21, NHTSA RECALL 15V-319. SAYS IN PART "PARTS ARE NOW AVAILABLE TO REPORT YOUR VEHICLE." AND "PLEASE CALL YOUR DEALER WITHOUT DELAY AND REQUEST A SERVICE DATE FOR RECALL 15S21." ON JUNE 28, I CALLED LINDSAY FORD IN WHEATON MD WHICH SAID IT DID NOT HAVE PARTS AND WOULD NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WOULD. I CALLED KOON'S FORD IN SILVER SPRING MD, WHICH SAID PARTS WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE FALL. ON JUNE 30, I CALLED THE FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP CENTER TO FIND OUT WHERE TO GET THIS REPAIRED; AFTER INTERMINABLE WAIT ON THEIR LINE, I FINALLY SPOKE TO A REPRESENTATIVE, WHO FORWARDED ME TO "KEVIN." HE WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN MY AREA. I AM CONCERNED THAT FORD HAS NOW SENT ME A LETTER, THE FIRST NOTICE OF ANY ISSUE WITH MY CAR, AND QUITE ALARMING; FORD TOLD ME TO CALL DEALER RIGHT AWAY, WHICH I DID, AND NEITHER OF TWO DEALERS I CALLED NOR THE FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP CENTER CAN SEEM TO HELP.
