2017 FORD MUSTANG Complaints

THE TABS ON THE SIDES OF THE FRONT BUMPER HAVE BROKEN OFF. IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT THERE WOULD BE LESS RESTRAINT FROM THE BUMPER BECAUSE IT IS NOT SECURED ON PROPERLY. I HAVE SEEN AND HEARD OF MANY PEOPLE WITH THIS YEAR AND MODEL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

DRIVING ON A FLAT ROAD THEN DRIVE UP A HILL IT TAKES LONGER TO GO INTO GEAR. TAKES LONGER TO SHIFT. LOSS OF POWER

SYNC 3, RANDOMLY MY SAMSUNG GALAXY S7 LOSES BLUETOOTH CONNECTION, THEN RE-CONNECTS A FEW SECONDS LATER. I NOTICE IT BY THE MESSAGE THAT MY PHONE HAS SUCCESSFULLY CONNECTED APPEARS ON THE TOP OF THE SCREEN WHILE DRIVING. I AM NOT ON THE PHONE THAT MUCH, BUT I HAVE HAD THE BLUETOOTH CONNECTION FAIL WHILE I WAS ON THE PHONE. A FEW SECONDS LATER THE MESSAGE APPEARS THAT THE PHONE IS CONNECTED AND MY CONVERSATION CAN CONTINUE OVER THE CAR SPEAKERS/MIC. I DO NOT DROP THE CALL ON THE PHONE ITSELF. IT DISCONNECTS AT LEAST ONCE EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT, I NOTICED IT LATE 2018.

CAR MAKES A CLUNCK WHEN SHIFTING GEARS. SO BAD YOU CAN FEEL IT THOUGH THE SEAT. LOOKS LIKE MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING SIMILAR ISSUES. IT DOES IT SITTING STILL AND MOVING.

MY VEHICLE, MANUFACTURED JUNE 2016, IS HAVING AN OIL LEAK FROM THE ENGINE COOLER HOSE. MY SPECIFIC VIN WAS NOT RECALLED BUT THIS ISSUE STARTED LAST WEEK AND FALLS UNDER BOTH MODEL YEAR AND MANUFACTUR DATES FOR THIS RECALL FORD # (16S40). THIS OCCURS AFTER VEHICLE OPERATION ON ANY STREET, TYPICALLY AFTER THE VEHICLE COMES TO A STOP AT A LIGHT OR THE VEHICLE IS PARKED, SMOKE WITH THE ODOR OF BURNT OIL EMITS FROM THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE ENGINE BAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2017 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SON WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE VEHICLE. ALL OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED EXCEPT FOR THE DRIVER'S STEERING WHEEL AIR BAG. THE DRIVER WAS INJURED AND TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL BY A FRIEND FOR MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO A TOW LOT BY THE POLICE. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER (FIVE STAR FORD STONE MOUNTAIN, 3800 US-78, SNELLVILLE, GA 30039, (678) 384-4242). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,067. *DT*JB

I HAVE BEEN IN 3 DIFFERENT ACCIDENTS AND NOT ONCE HAS MY AIRBAG DEPLOYED, ONE ACCIDENT DID OVER $10000 WORTH OF DAMAGE TO THE CAR AND I WAS INJURED BUT NO AIRBAG WAS INFLATED. THE WORST ONE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHERE A CROSSED 4 LANES OF TRAFFIC DUE TO A STEERING ISSUE AND RAN INTO THE CEMENT DIVIDER, NO AIRBAG GOING 60, THERE WERE INJURIES TO DRIVER-MYSELF

WHENEVER I TAKE OFF AND WHILE I'M DRIVING SHIFTING GEARS THE CAR MAKES A THUD OR THUMP SOUND. WHEN I FIRST PUT IT INTO GEAR IT MAKES THE THUD SOUND AND IT CONTINUES THROUGHOUT SECOND AND THIRD EVEN FOURTH GEAR. IT'S ODD BECAUSE NO OTHER CAR THAT I'VE OWNED HAS DONE THIS AND I DO NOT THINK IT'S NORMAL.

ENGINE ROD BEARING ARE DEFECTIVE OR IMPROPERLY INSTALLED. EXPERIENCING ROD BEARING PLAY, WHICH CAUSES A LOWER ENGINE TAPPING SOUND DURING ACCELERATION. ORIGINAL ENGINE EXPERIENCED THE TAPPING AT 1,600 MILES, AND REPLACEMENT ENGINE EXPERIENCED IT AT 300 MILES. PENDING 3RD ENGINE REPLACEMENT.

MY 2017 FORD MUSTANG GT WITH ONLY 3000 MILES ON IT HAS ALMOST TO NO COOLANT IN IT IT'S BEEN A GARAGE KEPT CAR HASN'T EVEN SEEN A TRACK OR DRIVING IT HARD!! I HAVE NEVER OWNED A NEW CAR THAT JUST LOST COOLANT LIKE THAT. THE REASON I'M REPORTING THIS IS I SERIOUSLY THINK THIS IS A VERY WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM WITH ALL FORDS LINEUP FOR ALL I KNOW 2017 YEAR MY SISTER OWNS THE 2017 FORD ESCAPE WITH ONLY 10,000 MILES ON IT HER CAR WAS THE FIRST TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM WE CALL FORD THEY SAY BRING IT IN BUT THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO EVEN LOOK AT UNTIL JULY OF NEXT MONTH BECAUSE THEY HAVE SO MANY IN THE SHOP WITH COOLING ISSUES. SHE'S STUCK WITH A RENTAL FOR OVER A MONTH THEY DIDN'T EVEN WANT TO OFFER HER ONE! HOW CAN SOMEONE NOT HAVE A CAR FOR OVER A MONTH AND STILL HAVE A JOB?? BUT BACK TO MY CAR AS OF TODAY 06/18/2018 MY MUSTANG HAD THE SAME FREAKING PROBLEM NOW SO HERE WE ARE PAYING OVER $800 IN CAR PAYMENTS JUST TO BE [XXX] WITHOUT TWO CARS FOR MONTHS I THINK THIS UNACCEPTABLE AND WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU ALL COULD MAYBE LOOK INTO THIS I HONESTLY THINK THIS IS A MASSIVE RECALL THAT SHOULD BE AWARE OF ESPECIALLY LIVING IN TEXAS WHERE IT GETS 100+ DEGREES WE DRIVE MOSTLY ON A HIGHWAY EVERYDAY MIGHT BE WHEN IN MOTION NOT TOO SURE YET.
