OUR 2012 FORD MUSTANG IS UNDER FULL WARRANTY. WHEN DRIVING ABOUT 5 MPH IN PARKING LOTS GOING OVER SPEED BUMPS WE NOTICED THERE IS A CREAKING/SQUEAKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT SUSPENSION. WE TOOK OUR CAR TO THE DEALER WE BOUGHT IT FROM WHICH WAS NORTH PARK LINCOLN AND THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE OR FIND THE ISSUE. THE FIRST TIME WE TOOK IT THE MECHANICS SAID THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE AND THEY LUBED THE FRONT SUSPENSION. WELL THE NOISE WAS STILL THERE AND WE TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY HAVE YET TO FIND AN ISSUE WITH THE SUSPENSION. WHEN WE BOUGHT THE MUSTANG THE EXACT SAME NOISE OCCURRED IN THE REAR AND THE DEALER REPLACED THE BUSHINGS AND LINKS AND THE NOISE WENT AWAY. WE ARE TRYING TO TELL THE DEALER IT'S THE BUSHING, LINKS, AND SWAY BAR BUT THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING. WE ARE GOING BACK TO THE DEALER TO SEE IF WE CAN GET THEM TO REPLACE THE COMPONENTS OF THE BUSHING AND LINKS. *TR

I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE WHEN THE STEERING WENT COMPLETELY OUT. WHEN I WOULD TURN THE STEERING WHEEL, IT WOULD KEEP TURNING. A WEEK PREVIOUS, I HAD FOUND A BOLT ON MY FLOORBOARD AND I PUT IT IN MY CONSOLE. MY HUSBAND SAW IT, ASKED WHERE I HAD GOTTEN IT CAUSE IT HAD A RED TIGHT LOCK TOWARD THE TOP AND HE SAID WHERE EVER IT HAD FALLEN OUT FROM SHOULDN'T HAVE COME OUT. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING IT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY BAD, I AM JUST THANKFUL I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AND NOT ON A HWY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY FORD MUSTANG AFTER A RAIN STORM I HEARD A VERY LOUD WATER SWISHING NOISE AND PULLED OFF THE ROAD IMMEDIATELY. I QUICKLY ASCERTAINED THAT THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM THE DRIVER'S DOOR. I WAS EXTREMELY SHOCKED AND CONCERNED AND HURRIED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DOOR WAS TAKEN APART IN THE SERVICE AREA AND A LARGE QUANTITY OF WATER POURED OUT. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS PROBLEM WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO! WHEN THE DOOR WAS APART I COULD CLEARLY SEE THAT THERE WERE NUMEROUS WIRES AND CONNECTORS THAT COULD CLEARLY BE IN JEOPARDY FROM SPLASHING WATER AND THE DOOR INTERIOR WAS VERY WET. I NERVOUSLY DROVE THE CAR HOME AND COVERED IT AND HAVEN'T DRIVEN IT SINCE BECAUSE WE HAVE EXPERIENCED A LOT OF RAIN. I AM A DISABLED VETERAN WITH MEDICAL ISSUES NEED TO DRIVE MY CAR BUT I AM AFRAID TO. *TR
