THE A/C IS NOT BLOWING COLD AIR. IT SEEMS TO AN ISSUE WITH MUSTANGS 2015 AND UP. IT BLOWS AIR BUT IT IS NOT COLD. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT THIS HAPPENED.

THE REARVIEW CAMERA WILL INTERMITTENTLY DISPLAY A BLANK OR DISTORTED IMAGE. WHEN PLACING THE CAR IN REVERSE THE CAMERA WILL INTERMITTENTLY DISPLAY A BLANK SCREEN OR DISTORTED IMAGE WHILE REVERSING THE VEHICLE. THIS REDUCES THE DRIVER'S VIEW OF WHAT IS BEHIND THE VEHICLE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. THIS HAPPENS WHEN BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT MY 2020 FORD MUSTANG GT VIN [XXX] HAS JUST RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR. THE CAMERA BEGAN TO FAIL THE SUMMER OF 2020. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY, GOT IT REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND NOW AGAIN WENT BAD BUT NO MORE WARRANTY. THE AC COMPRESSOR WENT OUT AND EVAPORATOR CORE IS BAD(VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH 15-17 MODELS), IT CAUSES WINDSHIELD TO FOG UP BAD AND CAN BARELY SEE AT TIMES WHEN DRIVING, VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX TOO.

MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR KEEPS OPENING WHILE I AM DRIVING , IT'S REALLY UNSAFE AND REALLY WANT TO GET THIS FIXED. EVEN IF I'M NOT ON THE HIGHWAY EVEN SMALL ROADS WHERE I HAVE TO GO SLOWER IT OPENS. IT HAS HAPPENED MORE THEN ONCE 11/10/2020 WAS THE MOST RECENT.

SUDDENLY STARTED EXPERIENCING A LOSS OF POWER AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ONLY REMEDIED BY SLAMMING THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR WHICH THEN CAUSED THE CAR TO SURGE FORWARD. AFTER GETTING THE CAR HOME ALSO NOTICED THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ON AT ALL TIMES. THE TWIN PROBLEMS ENDED UP BEING CONNECTED. TURNS OUT THERE IS A SMALL PLASTIC/CERAMIC PIECE IN THE BRAKE ASSEMBLY THAT FAILS AND BREAKS APART WITHOUT WARNING - ALSO NO DASHBOARD WARNINGS AFTER IT FAILS. CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO THINK THE BRAKES ARE BEING APPLIED AND CUTS THE POWER IN RESPONSE. THIS HAPPENED WHILE TRAVELING AT INTERSTATE HIGHWAY SPEED AND WAS AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY ISSUE. WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THIS SMALL PART IS VERY SUSCEPTIBLE TO FLORIDA HEAT - UNFORTUNATELY THE WHOLE BRAKE ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REPLACED.
