This is the second time this has happened. Upon starting the car, the motor revs uncontrolled to about 7000 rpms. I have to turn ignition off to stop the motor from damaging its self. If my foot was to ever slip off the clutch, we would race uncontrolled in reverse! The car is always parked and started while in reverse. Almost afraid to start this car. *tr

Upon acceleration to pass a slow vehicle a strong odor started to fill the vehicle, almost like a propane smell. This i later learned to be exhaust fumes, or i should note, unburned fuel passing through the system. This is the 3rd time this has occurred, and only does this under acceleration when passing slower vehicles or using more power to ascend hills or mountain type roads. Vehicle thrown no ses codes. Vehicle…

When downshifting in the manual transmission version of this vehicle, the car doesn't slow down on any decline and instead accelerates (without touching the gas pedal). Also, while slowing down on a flat road (at 1,500 to 1,700rpm) the car accelerates by itself and fights the brakes while in gear. *tr

While driving the mustang (which is a manual transmission) i noticed that the speed of the car doesn't decelerate when i take my foot off the gas pedal. The car is given gas (more than an idle amount) when i do not depress the gas pedal. It happens in all 6 gears but it's most noticeable when in first or second. Also, while the car is in gear, the engine fights to slow down while depressing the brake pedal. This…
