    Both issues i have had with my car numerous times. The engine light has never come on and through research, i guess it has happened to many others. When in traffic moving slowly, warm temperature, my car stalls for no apparent reason. Today, it did while turning left at a corner. I almost got hit. I have to immediately shift to neutral and restart the car. It happens during rush hour so i end up making other drivers…

    Driving at interstate speed car lunging acting as if the engine was wanting to cut out and then seems to 'catch'. I have since noticed it doing the same with in town driving. So speeds seem not to be an issue. I have done some online searching and have found ford has issues with auto throttle body and the symptoms sound exactly like the issues i'm having with my car. I found this, and filed the complaint and am…

    I'm not sure how to explain because i don't know much about motors but i'll try. There was a squeak in my car it would come and go. I broke down on the highway. The mechanic said the harmonic balance broke which broke the crank senor. The car just died on the highway. The mechanic said it is common in mustangs in fact he just replaced one last week. I don't drive my car often as you can tell it only has 40,000 miles…

    This has been a recurring problem that i have been experiencing for quite awhile. I was researching a lunge problem, discovered it is frequently happening to others. It happens when i am going a very slow speed. It has happened in traffic many times which is scary, in my housing developments, we have speed bumps so you must drive slowly and making turns. It just immediately all shuts down and the car stops. I…

    My 2007 ford mustang has had a water leak under the passenger side area that has and is still causing electrical shortage in the car. Everytime it rains water gets into the vehicle and causes major damage. Ford dealership will not repair it under warranty and my out of pocket expenses to fix this problem would be enormous. This water leak is a tsb on ford's site which means they know something is wrong with the…

    I have reported this problem before but since then two other people who have driven my car have experienced it. I now warn anyone who has to drive my car that it drives by itself. I have received dirty looks from people, been yelled out, due to this problem. It accelerates on its own. I will be behind someone at a light, foot on brake and it will start revving. They think i am messing with them. I will be in neutral…
