2015 FORD MUSTANG Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 60-70 MPH, THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR BECAME AJAR. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER GULLO FORD OF CONROE (925 INTERSTATE 45 S, CONROE, TX 77301 (281) 367-0000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A FAULTY DRIVER'S DOOR LATCH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: CAS21669880. HOWEVER, NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS SIMILAR TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V643000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000.

AFTER RESEARCHING MANY FORUMS A LOT OF MUSTANG OWNERS, RANGING FROM 2010-2017, REPORT A PROBLEM WITH THEIR TRUNKS NOT OPENING DUE TO A WIRE THAT CORRODES AND DOESN'T ALLOW THE TRUNK TO OPEN. THAT SHOULD BE A PROBLEM THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS SELLING A FAULTY WIRE TO CONSUMERS. THIS COST IS $150, JUST TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE WHICH I BELIEVE IS UNFAIR. THE TRUNK WON'T OPEN UNLESS I GO INTO THE TRUNK FROM THE INSIDE OF IT AND UNLATCH IT THROUGH THE EMERGENCY EXIT. I HOPE THIS PROGRAM CAN DO ITS RESEARCH AND SEE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY MUSTANG OWNER THAT HAS THIS ISSUE. I HOPE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND HAVE FORD ABSORB THE COST AND FIX THIS ISSUE FOR OLDER AND NEWER MUSTANGS BY NOT SELLING FAULTY PARTS AND ACCESSORIES.

REPORTING A SYSTEMIC MANUFACTURED FIRE CONDITION.RIGHT SIDE EXHAUST [PASSENGER SIDE FRONT] BEHIND WHEEL WELL..EXHAUST IS TOO CLOSE TO THE WIRING A/C SCHRADER PORT CAUSING MELTING HEAT DAMAGE TO WIRING FENDER LINER AND PORT CAP.ON THIS VEHICLE THE FENDER LINER HAS A HOLE BURNT INTO IT AS WELL THE SCHRADER CAP IS MELTED.THIS IS A DOCUMENTED CONDITION ON THE INTERNET WITH ACTUAL FIRES ON FILM.AS WELL FORD SENT OUT A LETTER TO APPROX 1300 OWNERS ABOUT THIS EXACT PROBLEM IN AUSTRALIA [ SOURCE SUNSHINECOAST NEWS ARTICLE].NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN IN US. THIS CAME TO MY ATTENTION DURING A ROUTINE TIRE CHANGE ON 4-25-2019. THE VEHICLE IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION UPON REQUEST BY EITHER NTSB OR FORD REPS. THE RECOMMENDED REPAIR MIGHT BE SOME SORT OF HEAT SHIELD REFLECTOR OR OTHER IDEAS? IT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM I AM ADVISING OF FOR MAJOR SAFETY REASONS.THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT A REPAIR SHOP WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS NOTICED.

THE AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING. SAME PROBLEM IN 2016 TAHOE THAT GENERAL MOTORS ISSUED AN 17335 EXTENDED WARRANTY. SUPPOSEDLY NTSB MANDATED GENERAL MOTORS BECAUSE OF SYSTEMIC PROBLEM. FORD MUSTANGSS HAVE THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM BUT FORD REFUSES TO FIX. HOW DO WE GET FORD TO REPAIR LIKE GENERAL MOTORS HAS DONE? 35,890 MILES

THE CAR INTERMITTENTLY WILL NOT START. THE DEALERS SAY THEY CAN'T FIX THE CAR WITHOUT A COMPUTER ERROR CODE WHICH THEY ARE NOT GETTING. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED WITH THE CAR ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. I HAVE CHECKED ON-LINE AND FIND THAT OTHER MUSTANG OWNERS ARE HAVING EXACTLY THE SAME EXPERIENCE AND THEIR CARS ARE NOT GETTING FIXED EITHER. I ALSO CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE DIRECTLY BUT HAVE HAD NO FEEDBACK FROM THEM. I AM OUT OF OPTIONS AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. FORD NEEDS TO PROVIDE A TIMELY FIX AND HONOR THEIR WARRANTY AGREEMENT TO KEEP THESE CARS ON THE ROAD. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY ELECTRIC/ELECTRONIC PROBLEM I HAVE HAD/DO HAVE WITH THE CAR

WHEEL LUGS DE-LAMINATE REQUIRING REPLACEMENTS TO BE PURCHASED. FACTORY PROVIDES LUG WRENCH WILL NOT FIT THE DE-LAMINATED LUGS MAKING A TIRE REMOVAL IMPOSSIBLE ON THE ROAD TO CHANGE A FLAT TIRE.

FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS. WHEN I GO TO WORK. EVERYTHING IS FINE. WHEN I LEAVE WORK. I BACK THE CAR UP ABOUT 15-30 FEET. THEN PULL OUT OF THE PARKING LOT. WHEN I PULL OUT. AS I PRESS THE GAS & START GOING FASTER. THE CAR STALLS, JERKS AS IF THE BREAKS ARE PUSHED, THEN STARTS DRIVING AS NORMAL AGAIN. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. BUT MY FORD PLACE SAYS IT HAS TO DO IT WITH THEM DRIVING FOR THEM TO KNOW WHAT TO DO OR WHAT THE ISSUE IS. THEN THIS PAST WEEK. THE SAME THING HAPPENED. BUT IT HAPPENED FOR A LONGER TIME AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT BRINKED THE WHOLE TIME I WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE. SO A FRIEND AT A FORD BODY SHOP TOLD ME IT WAS PROBABLY MY ABS SENSOR. ALSO THE HOOD OF MY CAR STARTED TO LOOSE PAINT FOR NO REASON. NO RUST. IT'S JUST FLAKING OFF. THE FLACKING STARTED NEAR THE HEADLIGHT UNDERNEATH THE TOP OF THE HOOD. & IS SLOWLY COMING TOWARDS THE TOP OF THE HOOD. MY 36,000 MILE WARRANTY JUST EXPIRED RIGHT AFTER I NOTICED THE ISSUE. AND THEY WOULDN'T COVER IT. I DON'T THINK THAT'S RIGHT!

PREMATURE INTERMEDIATE SHAFT FAILURE. RESULTED IN TRANSMISSION FAILURE. VEHICLE ONLY OPERATES IN 1, 2, 3 AND REVERSE. VEHICLE IN MOTION.

BACK UP CAMERA(A SAFETY DEVICE) NO LONGER FUNCTIONS WHEN CAR IS IN REVERSE. THE CAMERA STOPPED WORKING SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD HAD EXPIRED.

UNABLE TO OPEN TRUNK IN 2015 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE. THE KEY FOB, DASH RELEASE BUTTON AND OUTSIDE RELEASE BUTTON WILL NOT OPEN TRUNK. ALSO FOUND OUT BACK UP CAMERA IS OUT TOO. I JUST FOUND ON INTERNET TONITE , THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM DUE TO POOR DESIGN OF WIRE HARNESS IN TRUNK LID. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE YOU CANNOT GET IN TRUNK AND NO OPERABLE CAMERA .
