I was stopped completely. The traffic light changed to green in the intersection. I pressed the accelerator and it went all the way to the floor and stayed there. I flew thru the intersection at top speed with the brake pushed as hard as i could with no deceleration at all. I traveled approximately 150 yards wide open. I stomped the gas pedal and tried to get it to release with no luck. I finally turned the ignition…

Cannot easily put gas in tank. This just started occurring after having 80,000 +/- miles on vehicle. The dealer stated that this car had updated (remedy) tank installed during production, because ford knew of problem on 2005s. Newer tank worked successfully for many miles. Gassing up is now too frustrating to deal with. I've been a ford fan for my entire life, but this might change my mind. *tr

Ford knows of this problem - there is a service bulletin & many complaints. Ford says there is "no fix". Suggests getting gas at different gas station. I have had car to ford service 4 times -- so far spent $300 on supposed fixes. Now they say there…

My 2006 mustang has started only allowing 5-9 gallons of gas to be put in when it is warm outside. It starts spiting gas back out of the tank. I get gas all down the side of the car and all over me. This is very dangerous. We can get more gas in at night when it is cooler outside. *tr

Since the purchase of a 2006 mustang gt i have experienced trouble in filling the gas tank. After so much gas has entered the tank the gas starts to spew back out all over the side of the vehicle. To me this creates a potential fire hazard if the gas were to spew back onto the person fueling the car. I have read other complaints to i know that i am not the only one experiencing this problem. I believe there should…
