2012 Ford Mustang Complaint Log

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND IDLED, WHILE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WRENCH WARNING WAS DISPLAYED (POWER TRAIN FAULT). THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE USED A DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE AND RECEIVED AN UNKNOWN CODE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO OXMOOR FORD LINCOLN 100 OXMOOR LN, LOUISVILLE, KY 40222, PHONE NUMBER: (502) 426-2500 WHERE THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

ON AUGUST 1, 2016, AT APPROXIMATELY 7:30 P.M., I WAS DRIVING SOUTH ON U.S, HIGHWAY 1 (Y,S, HIGHWAY 2 IS A 3-LANE ROAD). SUDDENLY, MY VEHICLE LOST THE POSER TO ACCELERATE. I WAS PANICKED, AS THERE WAS TRAFFIC BEHIND ME AND TO MY LEFT SIDE. I COULD DO NOTHING TO STOP THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION. FORTUNATELY, MY FRIEND AS FOLLOWING ME AND WAS IMMEDIATELY AWARE THAT I WAS HAVING A PROBLEM. MY FRIEND IMMEDIATELY PUT ON HIS EMERGENCY FLASHERS; AS I SLOWED, I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE AND COAST INTO A FILLING STATION. AT THIS TIME, I NOTICED TWO THINGS; THE CAR RAN ROUGHLY AT A VERY SLOW SPEED AND A WRENCH SYMBOL APPEARED ON THE DASH. I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO A SAFE LOCATION ON THE FILLING STATION LOT. MY FRIEND SEARCHED FOR THE SYMBOL IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL WHICH INDICATED THERE WAS A THROTTLE CONTROL PROBLEM AND I SHOULD CONTACT MY DEALER IMMEDIATELY. AT THIS TIME, I CALLED AAA AND WAS ADVISED THAT A TOW TRUCK WOULD BE THERE IN APPROXIMATELY AN HOUR AND A HALF. WHEN THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED, I COMPLETED THE PAPERWORK AND THE CAR WAS TAKE TO PARADISE FORD WHERE I PURCHASED IT IN 2012. THE FOLLOWING MORNING, FORD CALLED ME AND DIAGNOSED IT AS A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY AND REPLACED IT. SOME RESEARCH INDICATED THAT A TSB HAD BEEN ISSUED TO FORD DEALERS ABOUT THE MALFUNCTION OF THIS ITEM. BECAUSE IN MY CASE, THIS WAS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, I FEEL FORD SHOULD HAVE NOTIFIED ME AND GIVEN ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE IT REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. AS A RESULT OF THIS, I WAS CHARGED $621 FOR THE REPAIR. TO REITERATE, THE MAIN ISSUE HERE IS THAT IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION DUE TO, WHAT I PERCEIVE, AS THE FORD DEALER'S NEGLIGENCE.

I GOT A LETTER ON AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL, THIS WAS IN JULY I CAME DOWN AN SPOKE WITH MICHAEL AT THE FORD COMPANY ON SAGE RD. IN MEMPHIS TN. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR HIM TO CAL ME BACK ONCE HE ORDER THE PART #15S21/ NHTSA RECALL 15V-319, IT"S BEEN A MONTH NOW

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND WHEN I SHIFTED FROM 1ST TO 2ND THE GEAR SHIFTER GOT HUNG UP AND WOULD NOT SHIFT CAUSING THE CAR TO DOWNSHIFT THROWING ME FOWARD AND HITTING MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL.

DURING INITIAL ACCELERATION AFTER A LEFT TURN, SHIFTING FROM 1ST INTO 2ND GEAR, THE VEHICLE SHOOK WILDLY AND VIOLENTLY ROCKED SIDE TO SIDE AND LOST POWER. THIS WAS THE SECOND IDENTICAL OCCURRENCE ON CITY STREETS WHILE ACCELERATING OUT OF LEFT TURNS. ON BOTH OCCASIONS, HAD TO MAKE IMMEDIATE MOVES TO THE RIGHT LANE BEFORE POWER WAS RESTORED. BASED ON OTHER REPORTING AND RESEARCH, IT APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE OF THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAS 18,500 MILES AND HAS A MT-82 TRANSMISSION.

INTERMITTENTLY, WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED THE VEHICLE WILL GO INTO 'LIMP HOME MODE'. THE 'WRENCH' TROUBLE LIGHT ILLUMINATES ON THE DASH. THE VEHICLE THEN HAS TO BE STOPPED COMPLETELY, PUT INTO PARK AND SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE THEN STARTS AFTER A FEW EXTRA CRANKS OF THE STARTER AND RUNS NORMALLY. THE 'WRENCH LIGHT IS NO LONGER LIT AND NO ENGINE CODE IS STORED. MY MECHANIC CANNOT TROUBLESHOOT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE NO ENGINE ERROR CODE IS STORED. RESEARCH ON-LINE POINTS TO DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY AS THE CULPRIT WITH REPLACEMENT AS THE SOLUTION. FORD SHOULD ADD THE MUSTANG TO ITS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM FOR DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODIES. I UNDERSTAND SOME 1.6 MILLION VEHICLES ARE ALREADY ON THIS LIST. THE PROBLEM BEGAN FOR ME ABOUT A YEAR AGO AROUND THE 18K MILE MARK AND THE VEHICLE NOW HAS ABOUT 22K MILES ON IT, IS METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED AND CARED FOR. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT THAT WE, AS OWNERS, COULD AT LEAST ADDRESS PROPERLY IF THERE WAS AN ENGINE ERROR CODE REPORTED. I AM GOING TO HAVE THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED AT MY OWN EXPENSE BASED ON WHAT OTHERS HAVE REPORTED, SINCE THERE IS NO KNOWN FIX FROM FORD. I DID REPORT THIS TO FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE TODAY 04/23/2016. THEY CONFIRMED THEY ARE UNAWARE OF ANY PROBLEM WITH MUSTANG THROTTLE BODIES. I RECOMMEND THAT FORD PUT SOME ENGINEERS ON THIS AND REMEDY THE PROBLEM. IN THE MEANTIME, WE MUSTANG OWNERS WITH CARS OUT OF WARRANTY ARE HAVING TO FEND FOR OURSELVES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE THE GEAR SHIFTER WAS SHIFTED INTO THE NEUTRAL POSITION, THE FRONT DRIVER SEAT WAS LIFTED AND COLLIDED WITH THE PARKING BRAKE. AS A RESULT, THE PARKING BRAKE WAS DISENGAGED, THE VEHICLE ROLLED AWAY IN THE FORWARD DIRECTION, AND CRASHED INTO A FENCE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 86,000.

I CALLED THE SAFERCAR.GOV PHONE NUMBER REGARDING THE STATUS OF MY CAR'S TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL SINCE IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR SINCE I RECEIVED A LETTER STATING MY CAR IS INDEED AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. I WAS TOLD TO CALL THE MANUFACTURER OF MY CAR AT 1-800-392-3673. FOLLOWING THE PROMPTS, I WAS WAITING ON HOLD UNTIL MY TURN CAME UP BUT WAS EVENTUALLY CUT OFF; I HAVE CALLED MULTIPLE TIMES ENCOUNTERING THE SAME ISSUE. I AM FRUSTRATED AS TO THE TIME IT IS TAKING TO REPLACE THESE AIRBAGS WITH RECENTLY ANOTHER LIFE LOST TO FAULTY AIRBAGS. PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO ENSURE THESE AIRBAGS ARE REPLACED QUICKLY!!!

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD MUSTANG GT. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V319000 (AIR BAGS) HOWEVER THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT ACCORDING TO NHTSA THE VEHICLE WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AND THEY WOULD NOT HAVE PART UNTIL THE END OF 2016. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TAKATA RECALL. MY 2012 FORD MUSTANG WAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR FAULTY AIRBAGS ON 5-27-2015. THE RECALL STATUS ON 4-8-2016 IS STILL "RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE." I FIND THIS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. I SAW ON THE NEWS THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER DEATH CAUSED BY THESE EXPLODING TAKATA AIRBAGS. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE NHTSA TAKES THIS SERIOUSLY AND MAKES FORD AND OTHER AFFECTED MANUFACTURERS START REPLACING THESE AIRBAGS? I FEEL COMPLETELY UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL, I HAVE CALLED FORD ABOUT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG MANY TIMES AND HAVE HAD NO REASONABLE REPLY TO THE QUESTION WHEN WILL IT BE DONE I AM CONSTANTLY CONCERNED FOR MY FRONT SEAT PASSENGER SAFETY I THINK FORD WOULD KNOW AT LEAST A TIME FRAME FOR THIS REPAIR BUT I ALWAYS GET WE DON'T KNOW.

WENT TO STOP AND HAD TO PUT CAR INTO NEUTRAL BEFORE CAR STOPPED BECAUSE GAS PETAL WOULD NOT RELEASE.

TAKATA RECALL WHY DOESN'T NTSB, FORD,TAKATA, SOMEBODY, GIVE US SOME SORT OF PROJECTED DATE WHEN PARTS MAY BE AVAILABLE FOR THIS RECALL. WE GOT A LETTER IN JULY 2015 STATING CAR NEEDED ATTENTION AND WE WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS WERE IN AND REPAIRS COULD BE DONE. I KNOW A MAZDA OWNER WHOSE CAR HAS BEEN CALLED IN 3 TIMES FOR THIS WORK. YET FORD ONLY SAYS THEY DON'T HAVE PARTS. WHY NOT DISARM THE AIR BAD AS AN INTRIM STEP, IF NOTHING ELSE. I'D RATHER TAKE MY CHANCES WITH THAT THAN DRIVE AROUND WITH AN AIR BAG THAT CAN KILL ME. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO TELL FORD, AND PERHAPS OTHER PRODUCT OWNERS, WHAT'S GOING ON HERE.

WHILE ACCELERATING TO GET ON THE FREEWAY, THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SLIP AND THE CAR BEGAN TO JERK, THEN THE TRANSMISSION LOCKED INTO 3RD GEAR, AND WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF 3RD GEAR UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY STOPPED, AND THE ENGINE TURNED COMPLETELY OFF. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, BUT AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ONE WHEN IT OCCURS. THE FORD DEALERSHIP SAYS I NEED A RECALL NOTICE BEFORE THEY CAN FIX IT. I'M OUT OF WORK AND DON'T HAVE THE FUNDS TO REPLACE OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. RIGHT NOW, WE ARE DRIVING IT AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD MUSTANG. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED BY THE MANUFACTURER THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V319000 (AIR BAGS).

THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL I WAS NOTIFIED LAST YEAR THAT MY CAR WAS RECALLED. FORD STILL DOES NOT HAVE PARTS TO FIX OR A PLAN TO FIX. THIS CAR IS JUST SITTING BECAUSE I WILL NOT ALLOW MY CHILDREN DO DRIVE A CAR THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR AIRBAGS THAT COULD CAUSE DEATH. HOW LONG DOES FORD HAVE TO REPAIR? I HAVE TO PAY INSURANCE, PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX ON A CAR WE WON'T USE. PEOPLE ALSO DO NOT WANT TO PURCHASE MY CAR BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN RECALLED AND NOT FIXED. I CALLED FORD AND THEY SAID THIS IS NOT A FORD ISSUE IT IS A TAKATA ISSUE AND I WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. IN THE MEAN TIME MY CAR IS DEPRECIATING AND NOT BEING USED. WHAT IS MY RECOURSE?

TAKATA RECALL I AM JUST WRITING TO COMPLAIN THAT ALMOST A YEAR AFTER WE WERE FIRST NOTIFIED THAT OUR MUSTANG WAS INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL THAT NOT ONLY HAS IT NOT YET BEEN RECTIFIED BUT THAT FORD STILL CANNOT GIVE ANY KIND OF AN ETA AS TO WHEN THIS MIGHT HAPPEN. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT MY WIFE PUTS HER LIFE AT RISK EVERY TIME SHE GETS BEHIND THE WHEEL OF HER CAR AND ALMOST A YEAR LATER THEY STILL CANNOT TELL US WHEN THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE PARTS TO FIX THIS.

CPSC: 2012 FORD MUSTANG: CONSUMER STATED WHILE CHARGING THE ANDROID DEVICE THE CHARGING PORT BURNED THE PHONE, AND CHARGER. *SS THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THE POWER WINDOW ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WOULD NOT GO UP OR DOWN. *JB

MY 2012 FORD MUSTANG HAS RUNAWAY CORROSION AROUND THE UNDERSIDE OF THE HOOD. THIS CORROSION WILL AFFECT THE HOOD CRUMPLE AREAS IN A CRASH.

WHY IS IT THAT NEW CARS HAVE AIRBAGS NOT INVOLVED IN RECALL, BUT THOSE OF US DRIVING WITH THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS CANNOT GET OURS REPLACED? BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT FORCING THE AUTO INDUSTRY TO DO IT! AUTO MAKERS WOULD MUCH RATHER PAY OUT TO INDIVIDUAL PHYSICALLY MAIMED OR KILLED PER LAWSUIT, THAN TO PAY THE MILLIONS TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS. SHAMEFUL ON YOUR PART!!

MY VEHICLE CONSTANTLY GOES INTO LIMP HOME MODE WHILE DRIVING. TURNS OFF ALL CYLINDERS EXCEPT 1 WHICH LET'S YOU DRIVE ABOUT 5MPH. ALSO WHILE MY VEHICLE IS AT IDLE IT BEGINS TO LOOSE PROPER IDLE RPM AND NEARLY STALLS UNTIL REVS BACK TO A HIGHER RPM. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THE ISSUE IS THOUGHT TO BE THE THROTTLE BODY AND THROTTLE BODY SENSOR. CURRENTLY MYMY VEHICLE IS AT THE DEALERSHIP GOING THROUGH SOME VEHICLE DIAGNOSTICS TO FIGURE OUT THE EXACT PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE VEHICLE WARRANTY AND I AM BEING CHARGED $145.00 FOR THE INITIAL INSPECTION AND THEN CHARGED BY THE HOUR TO FIX THE PROBLEM, I NOT INCLUDING PARTS. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 59,000 MILES ON IT AND IT'S ALREADY FAILING. IT APPEARS THAT NUMEROUS PEOPLE ARE HAVE THIS ISSUE AND FORD HAS YET TO RECALL AFFECTED VEHICLES.

I HAVE A 2012 MUSTANG GT WITH 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. I BOUGHT THE CAR AS A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED CAR AT ABOUT 2,500 MILES. THE CAR AT THAT POINT HAD A DEALER RE-BUILT TRANSMISSION AND MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IT HAS 2ND THROUGH 6TH GEAR REPLACED DUE TO A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. SINCE THAT TIME I'VE HAD MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION ISSUES AND THE CAR NOW HAS ABOUT 49,000 MILES. IN EARLY JANUARY, IT BECAME ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO 1ST GEAR. IT WAS VERY STIFF AND TOOK A LOT OF FORCE TO GET IT INTO 1ST. SHIFTING TO 2ND GEAR RESULTED IN A GEAR-MASHING SOUND. 3RD GEAR SOUNDED LIKE A LOUD CLUNK. 4TH THROUGH 6TH GEARS WERE FINE. THESE INCIDENTS BECAME WORSE AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE 2 DIFFERENT ACCIDENTS BY NOT BEING ABLE TO SHIFT GEARS IN TRAFFIC. I TOOK THE CAR TO A FORD DEALERSHIP IN THE NORTH ATLANTA, GA AREA AND THEY LOOKED AT THE CAR. THEIR TRANSMISSION TECH BELIEVED IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE SYNCHRONIZERS. THE TECH DID NOT BELIEVE HE HAD THE EXPERTISE TO WORK ON THIS ISSUE AND REFERRED ME TO ANOTHER FORD DEALERSHIP. ON 1/14/16 I TOOK THE CAR TO THE 2ND DEALERSHIP AND THEIR TECH AGREED IT WAS THE SYNCHRONIZERS. THAT DEALERSHIP TOOK ABOUT 1 WEEK TO COMPLETE THE REPAIRS. AFTER THE REPAIRS, THE ISSUE WAS NOT SOLVED; LOUD SOUNDS WERE COMING OUT OF THE REAR OF THE CAR. OVER THE PAST 2 WEEKS, THEY'VE ORDERED NUMEROUS REPLACEMENT PARTS. AS OF TODAY, 2/9/16, THERE ARE PARTS THAT ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND ARE ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER. THE ETA FOR THE PARTS IS NOW 2/24/16. I'VE READ ABOUT SIMILAR ISSUES OTHER MUSTANG OWNERS WITH THIS SPECIFIC 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION HAVE HAD AND PERSONALLY CAN SAY IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY WARNING FOR THE DRIVER. THESE CARS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND NEW TRANSMISSIONS INSERTED AS A WHOLE UNIT VS. INSTALLING MULTIPLE PARTS. I ALSO BELIEVE THAT THIS ISSUE WILL CAUSE ME TO EXPERIENCE DIMINISHED VALUE AT RESALE.

WHEN PUT IN GEAR ,IT JERKS FORWARD.GAS ACCELERATES SUDDENLY WITH OUT PRESSING.AT TIMES,PEDAL WILL NOT REV UP CAR.ERROR WHEN TESTED WAS THROTTLE SCENSOR

MUSTANG 2012 GT RUST DISCOVERED ON TOP AND UNDER HOOD THIS WINTER. VERY SERVER . IT IS GOING TO COST 1500-2000 DOLLARS TO FIX . NO GUARANTY THAT THIS WILL FIX PROBLEM FORD IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT IT. OUT OF POCKET MONEY FOR A CAR THAT IS COVERED, AND GARAGE KEPT. THE CAR DOESN'T HAVE A SCRATCH OR DENT ON IT. THIS IS VERY DISAPPOINTING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT A VERY LOW RATE OF SPEED, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY EXPERIENCED UNINTENDED ACCELERATION.

I HAVE ASKED THE FORD DEALERSHIP IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY CAR BECAUSE I RECEIVED A LETTER SOME TIME AGO AND THEY DENY THAT THERE IS A RECALL. NO ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM. I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS RECTIFIED BEFORE AN ACCIDENT HAPPENS.

TAKATA RECALL - IN EARLY NOVEMBER 2015 I WAS DRIVING MY 2012 FORD MUSTANG WHEN I EXPERIENCED A MINOR FENDER BENDER, LESS THAT 10 MPH. SURPRISINGLY, THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED CAUSING MY PASSENGER, A YOUNG BOY WITH A STOMACH BAG AND OTHER ILLNESSES TO HAVE TO GET CHECKED IN THE HOSPITAL. THANK GOD HE WAS NOT INJURED BUT HE WAS VERY SHAKEN UP FOR MANY DAYS BECAUSE OF HIS AUTISM. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO BODYART COLLISION CENTER ((908-789-0330) TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS, WHICH THEY HAVE DONE. HOWEVER, THREE MONTHS LATER MY CAR IS STILL SITTING THERE BECAUSE, ALTHOUGH THEY WERE ABLE TO INSTALL THE PROPER AIRBAGS, FORD HAS NOT YET BEEN ABLE TO GET APPROVAL FOR A NEWLY DESIGNED REPLACEMENT DASHBOARD. SEVERAL MECHANICS HAVE CALLED TO FIND AFTER MARKET DASHBOARD BUT NO ONE HAS THEM. FORD HAS ALSO STOPPED MANUFACTURING THEM, MOST LIKELY BECAUSE OF THE AIRBAG RECALL. MY MECHANIC, MYSELF, MY MOTHER AND ANYONE ELSE I CAN FIND HAS CALLED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE (HEATHER 866-631-3788, EXT. 7-7790, CASE NO. CAS8338404) AND THEIR RESPONSE IS "WE HAVE NO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO GIVE YOU." NOW THEY NO LONGER RETURN CALLS. WE EVEN SENT AN EMAIL TO THE CEO BUT HAVE NOT EVEN RECEIVED AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. IN THE MEANTIME, I HAVE NO CAR, CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY ONE, AND AM LIVING WITH MY MOTHER SO THAT I CAN USE HER CAR FOR ERRANDS, EVEN THOUGH I NOW HAVE TO TRAVEL 40 MINUTES TO GET TO WORK. I PAY $1500+ MONTHLY RENT AND I CANT EVEN LIVE IN MY APARTMENT. THE FRUSTRATION IS OVERWHELMING. I ASK FOR ANY RELIEF FROM FORD -- HELP WITH RENTING A CAR, A REPLACEMENT CAR UNTIL THEY THE GOVERNMENT (I ASSUME NHTCA) APPROVES THE NEW DASHBOARD, EVEN A RESPONSE THAT HAS A LITTLE MORE MEAT THAN THE STANDARD RHETORIC FROM THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE.

THERE IS A RECALL ON AIRBAGS AND MY 2 LOCAL DEALERS ARE NOT CAPABLE TO MAKE THE REPAIRS OF THIS VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION. THE DEALERS ARE STATING THAT FORD HAS FAILED TO SUPPLY THE SAFE AIRBAG CORRECTION WHICH MAKES FORD'S NEGLIGENCE ABOUT CARING FOR THE CONSUMERS A QUESTIONABLE SITUATION. TO FORD,.. YOU HAVE A LEGAL AND MORAL RESPONSIBILITY TO YOUR CUSTOMERS!!! JWF 2012 FORD MUSTANG.

PASSENGER AIRBAG STILL HAS NOT BEEN REPLACED. IT WAS RECALLED SOMETIME AGO, AND I HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF A DATE IT WILL BE FIXED.
