2015 FORD MUSTANG Complaints

UNDERCARRIAGE OF VEHICLE GETTING VERY HOT. YOU CAN FEEL HEAT COMING UP OFF THE FLOOR BOARDS IN THE VEHICLE. IF YOU PLACE A PURSE ON THE FLOOR GETS HOT ON THE BOTTOM OF PURSE CAN FEEL HEAT ON YOUR FEET ALSO BOTTOM OF SHOES GET HOT. EVERY SINCE I BOUGHT THE CARE. I TOLD FORD ABOUT IT AND THE DEALER SHIP AND GOT THE RESPONSE THAT MY VEHICLE AND WAS NOT ONE OF THE ONES LISTED IN THE VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. HOWEVER SINCE I NOTICED THE PROBLEM AND IT CAUSED ME TO LOOK IT UP AND I FOUND THE FOLLOWING: THERE HAS BEEN A VOLUNTARY RECALL ONLY TO PLACE NEW FUEL TANK SHIELD , NEW THERMAL WRAPPING IN THE FUEL VAPOR LINES AND NEW THERMAL WRAPPING ON THE PARKING BRAKE CABLE. THE DEALERSHIP RESPONSE WAS STILL THE SAME. I FEEL AS A CUSTOMER I SHOULD BE RIGHT AND THEY SHOULD TO THE RECALL REPLACEMENTS. IF I DID NOT FEEL THE HEAT COMING OFF OF THE FLOOR BOARDS I WOULD NOT HAVE KNOWN THERE WAS A VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR IT IN THE FIRST PLACE. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

2015 FORD MUSTANG GT PREMIUM WITH PERFORMANCE PACK AND ALL OPTIONS. THE CAR HAS 28000 MILES AND I PURCHASED IT APRIL 15, 2015. AT THAT TIME IT HAD A LITTLE OVER 26000 MILES. THE FOLLOWING IS WHAT'S HAPPENING. MAY 4, 2017 I HEARD A POPPING NOISE COMING FROM THE CLUTCH PEDAL WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. IT DID IT DURING THE DAY SO I PULLED THE VEHICLE INTO MY SHOP TO LOOK AT THE CLUTCH PEDAL TO SEE WHERE THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM. THE LINK FROM THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER TO THE PEDAL WAS LOSE AND MAKING A POPPING NOISE. I RE SECURED THE LINK BY PRESSING THE ROD BACK ONTO THE PEDAL. SATURDAY MAY 6, 2017 AT 11:12 AM THE NOISE CAME BACK AND WHILE DRIVING I PUSHED THE PEDAL FAST FOUR TIMES AND THE LINK CAME LOSE WHILE DRIVING. I COASTED TO A STOP AND LOOK AT THE PEDAL AGAIN AND SAW THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER PUSH ROD CAME COMPLETELY OFF. I RECONNECTED IT AND BEFORE I CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR CONTACTED COURTESY FORD IN CONYERS, GA AND SET UP AN APPOINTMENT MONDAY MAY 8, 2017 AT 7 AM. ALSO DOING THIS TIME THE VEHICLE CUT OFF SEVERAL TIMES. IT HAPPENS WHEN I'M SITTING AT A LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE IS IDLING, COASTING IN NEUTRAL, COMING TO A STOP, TURNING. THE VEHICLE HAS CUT OFF AT LEAST 11 TIMES AND I HAVE DOCUMENTED IT. ALSO I RECORDED TWO VIDEOS WITH MY PHONE. AFTER THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL, I DECIDED TO PARK THE VEHICLE FOR THE WEEK END AND PLAN TO TAKE IT TO THE FORD DEALER FOR THESE AND OTHER PROBLEMS.

I HAVE A 17 MUSTANG GT WITH MANUAL WITHIN THE FIRST 1000 MILES THE ENGINE HAS AUTOMATICALLY TURNED IT SELF OFF AFTER GETTING ON A INTERSTATE OR ANY TIME EXTRA POWER IS NEEDED. I WOULD WANT TO STOP SPEEDING UP I WOULD PUSH THE CLUTCH IN AND PUT IT IN 6TH AND WAIT FOR MY MPH DROP TO DESIRE SPEED, DURING THIS TIME IS WHEN THE ENGINE TURNS OFF. I HAVE WENT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP IN RICHMOND, VA AND THEY BASICALLY SAID THEY CAN'T FIND ANY ISSUES BECAUSE THEIR ARE NO CODES (THE CAR DIDN'T LEAVE THE PROPERTY). SO THIS ISSUE IS A HARD TO FIND A FIX AND MOST LIKELY WON'T GET FIXED TILL PEOPLE START GETTING IN ACCIDENTS OR DEATH BY ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THE UNPREDICTABLE ENGINE SHUT OFF.

"TAKATA RECALL" DRIVER TRUNK LINER BRITTLE TO RECALL RECALL #15S19 UNDERBODY TEMPERATURES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD MUSTANG. AFTER WASHING AND DRYING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT OPENED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WHEN SUDDENLY THE EXTERIOR DRIVER'S SIDE REARVIEW MIRROR COVER DETACHED WITH A LOUD BANG. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE CONTACT SENT PHOTOS OF THE DAMAGE TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER DENIED RESPONSIBILITY. THE CONTACT FILED A CASE WITH THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,300.

ENGINE STALLS DURING IDLE AT STOP SIGNS AND STOP LIGHTS AND ALSO STALLS DURING INITIAL ACCELERATION UNDER 10 MPH. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 25 TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR. THERE ARE NO FAULT INDICATIONS ON THE DASH. I PLACE SIFTER BACK IN "PARK" AND ENGINE RESTARTS UNTIL THE NEXT TIME IT STALLS. THERE IS NO PRIOR INDICATION OF ANY KIND THAT THE ENGINE IS ABOUT TO STALL. THE ENGINE SIMPLY SHUTS OFF. HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE TWICE. THEY CANNOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE SO MAKE NO ATTEMPT TO DO ANY COMPONENT REPLACEMENTS. I CONTACTED FORD MOTOR CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND THEY STARTED A CASE FILE ON THIS, CAS-12064085. I HAVE EXPRESSED MY CONCERN OVER AND OVER AGAIN THAT MY CAR MAY STALL AT THE WRONG PLACE AT THE WRONG TIME AND POSSIBLY CAUSE A COLLISION. BOTH THE DEALER AND FORD MOTOR COMPANY SEEMED "TOTALLY" DISINTERESTED. ALL THEY SAY IS "SORRY WE CANNOT HELP YOU".

NHTSA RECALL NUMBER:16V643 RECALL DATE: SEPTEMBER 2, 2016 MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER: 16S30 IT HAS BEEN OVER 6 MONTHS SINCE THIS RECALL WAS PUT IN PLACE AND THERE STILL HASN'T BEEN A REMEDY FOR THIS FAULTY DOOR LATCH. IS SOMEONE GOING TO HAVE TO FALL OUT OF A MOVING CAR AND DIE BEFORE THEY FIX IT?

THE BREAK PEDAL IS TOO CLOSE TO THE ACCELARATOR AND IF YOU PRESS DOWN FAR ENOUGH OF THE BRAKE, YOUR FOOT MAY ALSO TOUCH THE ACCELERATOR, THUS CAUSING THE CAR TO ACCELERATE WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AS WELL AS THE DISTRICT OFFICE, BUT THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. FINALLY, THEY HAD SOMEONE RIDE WITH ME AND THEY NOTICED THAT AT A CERTAIN POINT, MY FOOT WAS COMING IN CONTACT WITH THE ACCERARATOR BY MAYBE 1/8". THE DEALER SAID THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT FIXING IT BECAUSE THERE HAD BEEN NO RECALL ISSUED. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHERE I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS, EVEN AFTER I BECAME AWARE OF THE ISSUE. I CAN'T BELEIEV THAT I AM THE ONLY ONE IN THE COUNTRY WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM, AND MY FEET ARE NOT THAT BIG. I BELIEVE BY MOVING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE LEFT ABOUT 1/4" WILL RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THE DEALER SAID THEY WOULD DO IT WHEN/IF A RECALL WAS ISSUED. AS STATED BEFORE, THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED BEYOND A CERTAIN POINT, WHICH IS USUALLY WHEN HARD BRAKING, OR A QUICK SLOWDOWN IS REQUIRED AND THERE IS NO TIME TO THINK ABOUT WHERE YOUR FOOT IS IN RELATION TO THE ACCELERATOR.

CAR ENGINE SHUT OFF COMPLETELY WHILE DISENGAGING THE CLUTCH COMING TO A STOP ON BUSY ROADS WITH MY CHILD IN THE CAR.

RODENTS HAVE BEEN CHEWING ON THE WIRING UNDER THE HOOD. I FEEL THIS IS DUE TO THE SOYBASED WIRING COATING THAT IS BEING USED ON NEWER VEHICLES. 1ST INCIDENT. THE AC WIRING WAS EFFECTED. 2ND INCIDENT 2 WEEKS LATER ENGINE WIRES WERE CHEWED UP. THIS SEEMS VERY SIMILAR TO THE CURRENT HONDA RODENT ISSUES THAT A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IS CURRENTLY FILED FOR. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED UNDER MY CARPORT OVER NIGHT. IT IS A DAILY DRIVER USED EVERYDAY.
