2010 Ford Mustang

MY MUSTANG IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD, MINT CONDITION, ONLY 21,800 MILES ON IT CURRENTLY. PAINT IS BUBBLING ON THE HOOD, ABOUT TO START PEELING OFF. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS TODAY, I'VE LEARNED THAT THIS IS APPARENTLY A PROBLEM ON MULTIPLE FORD MODELS, INCLUDING AND BEYOND THE MUSTANG, AND SPANNING MANY MODEL YEARS. I UNDERSTAND THAT FORD IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND HAS ISSUED AT LEAST ONE TSB ON IT, IF NOT MORE, YET CONTINUES TO KNOWINGLY SELL THESE VEHICLES WITH DEFECTIVE PAINT JOBS ON THEM, CAUSING THEIR CUSTOMERS FINANCIAL LOSS IN HAVING TO REPAINT THE VEHICLE IN AS FEW AS 3 YEARS AFTER PURCHASING. DUE TO THE CORROSIVE NATURE, THIS IS AN EXTRAORDINARILY INTRICATE PROCESS TO REPAINT THESE AND REQUIRES SPECIAL PROCESSES AND FORD IS REFUSING TO FIX THESE VEHICLES EVEN THOUGH THEY CREATED THE PROBLEM. IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS ONE LAWSUIT IN PROGRESS BUT IT ONLY GOES UP TO 2007 MODELS I THINK, BUT APPARENTLY THERE ARE MANY VEHICLES BEYOND THAT YEAR THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I READ "FORD USED ALUMINUM HOODS BUT FAILED TO PROPERLY INSULATE THEM FROM PRIOR MODEL YEAR IRON-BASED CONNECTING AND SUPPORTING PARTS, DESPITE KNOWING THAT WOULD GIVE RISE TO GALVANIC COUPLING AND CORROSION" FOR A MORE TECHNICAL ANSWER. ALSO I FOUND "WHAT IS INTERESTING TO NOTE ABOUT THIS ISSUE IS THAT FORD ACTUALLY WROTE A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) AND SENT IT OUT TO ALL OF ITS DEALERS IN 2004 OUTLINING THE ISSUES WITH THE HOODS AND HOW TO REPAIR THEM PROPERLY, EVEN THOUGH THEY DENY ALL WRONG DOING OR THAT AN ISSUE EVEN EXISTS - BUT IT IS PRETTY HARD TO IGNORE THAT AN ISSUE EXISTS WHEN A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH OF 'MUSTANG HOOD PROBLEMS' OR "FORD PAINT PROBLEMS" WILL BRING UP FORUM AFTER FORUM OF MUSTANG OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE". I ALSO READ A POST THAT ANOTHER TSB WENT OUT AFTER THE FIRST ONE THAT INCLUDES ALL MODELS UP TO 2016! PLEASE HELP US!

TAKATA RECALL RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE 15S21 IN JULY 2015 ASKED TO WAIT FOR SECOND LETTER TO INFORM THAT PARTS AVAILABLE AND TO CONTACT DEALER TO SCHEDULE A REPAIR HAVE HEARD NOTHING AS I AM IN FLORIDA (ONE OF THE HIGH PRIORITY AREAS), I HAVE REGULARLY CONTACTED MY DEALER FOR ADVICE ON PROGRESS WITH OBTAINING PARTS EACH TIME, INCLUDING TODAY, I AM DISMISSED AS NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE WHAT SHOULD I DO? MY CAR IS POTENTIALLY UNSAFE, AND, POSSIBLY, DEVALUED PRIOR TO THIS RECALL BEING CORRECTED I AM ASSURED OF THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF SERVICE AND SUPPORT BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY, HOWEVER, I AM NOT IN RECEIPT OF ANYTHING LIKE THAT HAVE OTHER FLORIDA FORD VEHICLES BEEN REPAIRED AND I JUST ONE OR ONE OF MANY WAITING FOR ACTION?

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS REVIEWING MY CAR FAX REPORT IN JANUARY & NOTICED THE 15S21 RECALL. SINCE THEN, THERE HAS BEEN A POPPING SOUND COMING FROM THE CENTER INSTRUMENT AREA EVERY TIME I START THE VEHICLE. IT STOPS AFTER A FEW REPETITIONS. I HAVE VISITED MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP & WAS TOLD THAT REMEDIES ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AS IT IS MY PRIMARY & I CONSTANTLY TRAVEL ON THE HIGHWAY. WHAT OPTIONS DO I HAVE FOR REPAIRS OR TO OBTAIN A LOANER VEHICLE UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS FIXED?

TAKATA RECALL LETTER SENT TO ME FROM FORD DATED JULY 2015. HAVE CALLED FORD THEY SAID CALL LOCAL DEALER, CALLED LOCAL DEALER TWICE SINCE JULY 2015 AND AM TOLD THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS TO REPAIR. HOW LONG ARE WE SUPPOSED TO WAIT, DO WE NEED TO FILE ANOTHER LAWSUIT TO GET THESE COMPANIES TO DO THE RIGHT THING? WHAT ON EARTH IS TAKING SO LONG? CAN NOT AFFORD TO BUY ANOTHER CAR IS THIS ONE SAFE TO OWN AND DRIVE?
