The stripes over the top of the bodywork have corroded and this is the 2nd replacement of them. This is a known issue for the manufacturer, ford and orcal. This is common to shelby gts from 2007 and affected cars in california. They have decided to not warranty it and are forcing owners to replace. This is a 5000 dollars, in some cases, issue. This is the 2nd time i have had them replaced and it is a known issue and…

I purchased a used 2007 ford mustang shelby gt with 15k miles. There were 3 spots on the hood where paint had bubbled. A local body shop said the problem was that steel rivets had been used to secure the hood pin disks to the hood and one spot at the air scoop; aluminum rivets should have been used. *tr

There is a water leak in the front of my mustang, such that when it rains water comes through onto my feet. Due to the structure of the car allowing water to flow in areas that it should not, this caused water to ruin my windshield wiper motor. I had it replaced and my car looked at by two different mechanics who could not find the reason for the water flowing into my car and onto my windshield wiper motor. Today,…

The paint on the hood of the car has rusted off at not even 40,000 miles of owning the car. Ford does not take responsibility for their faulty paint. Their warranty only covers bumper to bumper, including paint, up to 36,000 miles. I have owned cars where the paint remained intact well over 200,000 miles. *tr
