Received a recall notice sometime ago and were told not available, and few months I I would check to no avail. Last time I check was this fall still not available, now I'm stuck with it being checked for my safety. Still waiting for recall replacement.
Takata recall Ford has now warned us by mail that no one should sit in the front passenger seat until the repair has been made and that they will begin making repairs in NHTSA remedy order in the spring of 2018. This is unacceptable. Expecting us to not use the front passenger seat in a mustang (which has only enough seating space in the back seat for a very small child without a car seat) is totally unacceptable. And, as we have no idea where we will fall in the remedy priority order, it could be a very long time before our repair parts are available to us and we are able to safely transport more than one person in this vehicle. Something more has to be done. This has gone on far too long.

I was notified in june, 2016 that there was a recall of the passenger frontal airbag on my car and it was potentially dangerous to the front passenger in case of a crash. Since that time I have not allowed anyone to sit in the front passenger seat while awaiting correction of the problem. It has now been 18 months during which I have not had full use of my car and the passenger front airbag has not been replaced. This is egregious!!
Takata recall. I have had the driver side airbag replaced but I am being told the parts for the passenger side are unavailable. I am a little concerned as to what I do at this point with the car. Will parts become available at some point ? Or am I stuck with a car with a bad airbag ? I was hoping to get an answer as to what I am to do next. I haven't had any accidents with the car but would like to get the car repaired.

Car suddenly went into limp mode, no reason. Just started it up one day and it just did not want to move. No one knows how to get it out of the mode. Many mechanics have tried with no luck. Now a mechanic says I have a faulty computer. 3 years of it acting this way.. Computer diagnosis showed many things messed up, even after replacing all of those (and I am sure some were uneeded) the car is still in limp mode, has no power at all and has been basically down for 3 years. Beautiful lawn ornament but it being all I have left of my late husband, I'm not happy it just sits there. No mechanic wants to even touch it!
When I try to put gas in my car the car will only allow me to put half of a tank in the car and I have to force it to take more which as cause the gasoline to overflow even when the tank is not full. I have tried taking it to various gasoline stations all different brands to see if there are any differences but have not had any success.also the vehicle is staionary. This originally happen in 2019 but it has happen every time since then. Also my reverse light will not turn off for some reason. Don't know why.

This has happened since purchasing my personal 2006 Mustang GT new in 2006. I also see early S-197 Mustangs (2005—2007) in my shop that cannot be reliably refilled because fuel shoots out of the filler neck, splashes the operator, the side of the Mustang, and puddles on the ground. The defective On-board Refueling and Vapor Recovery (ORVR) system causes high internal fuel tank pressures that will also cause the filling station pump to cut off and prevent putting fuel in the tank. This creates a fire hazard as the spillage contacts the left hot tail pipe and muffler as well as a puddle of fuel that can be ignited by a spark, cigarette, etc. This problem is in direct violation of the Environmental Protection Agency emission standards that clearly state the operator is “expected to fill t

I have a 2006 mustang with only 7500 miles on it and I have owned it now for about two weeks. Today I was driving on a residential street and the engine just turned off. I pulled the car over to the side and turned the car back on and it was fine. I drove home with no issues. I was almost on the interstate when this happened and it could have been very dangerous. If you complete a google search on 2006-2009 mustangs, this issue seems to be listed several times. When the engine shut off, I checked all the fluids in the car and they were all fine. It did not sound like their was an issue with the engine; this seems more like a glitch in the system, something that Ford should recall and fix. Because the engine was turned off, the steering was hard to control, if I was going at a faster sp

Driving my 2006 automatic transmission mustang scs on the freeway and accelerated to pass a car when the throttle went to the floor and became stuck. I had intended to accelerate from about 65 to 70. I tried to brake and this prevented me from speeding up past 85 but did not stop the car or even slow it down. The throttle was completely stuck. This lasted for about 12 - 15 seconds and then released on its own. Floor mats were not in the way at all; the first thing I checked. Plus, I'd been driving perfectly fine up to that point and did not in any way shirt the mats around while driving. There are a lot of posts about this if you google "2006 mustang accelerator stuck". I hope that Ford will finally be accountable. *tr

My 2006 mustang gt will not take fuel. It has had the tank replaced once. The very next time I need to fuel up, after getting the new tank, the same thing happened. It will not fuel up. The car has been at the dealers since then (10/24/07). The dealer had Ford engineers out to look at the car-they say it cannot be fixed. How do you manufacturer something that cannot be fixed? *tr
