I AM COMPLAINING BECAUSE I RECEIVED A LETTER THAT IF I WAS TO GET INTO ANY CRASH MY DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY AND SEND OUT METAL PARTICLES THAT WILL SERIOUSLY INJURE ME OR CAUSE MY DEATH. NOT TO MENTION HURTING A PASSENGER. I CALLED FORD AND THEY SAID THE PARTS WON'T BE IN UNTIL THE END OF THE YEAR, POSSIBLY. SO IT COULD BE LONGER. SO EVERYDAY I HAVE TO DRIVE A DEATH TRAP KNOWING IF I GET IN AN ACCIDENT WITHIN THIS TIME I COULD DIE OR BE SERIOUSLY INJURED. I DO NOT LIKE THAT I HAVE TO WAIT AND JUST HOPE NOTHING HAPPENS BEFORE THEY DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS SITUATION. THEY ARE PUTTING PEOPLE'S LIFE IN DANGER. I JUST SURVIVED CANCER AND I'LL BE [XXX] IF I AM GOING TO DIE BECAUSE OF FORD MOTOR CO. I ASKED THEM ABOUT A LOANER CAR....THEY SAID NO. THEY SAID THE CAR IS OKAY TO DRIVE....WELL NO IT ISN'T....EVERYDAY I WORRY AND AT ANYTIME SOMETHING COULD HAPPEN. I ASKED IF I CAN GET THEM TO DEPLOY THE BAG UNTIL THEY GET THE PART (I WOULD RATHER HAVE NO AIRBAG (LIKE IN THE OLDER DAYS), THEN TO HAVE AN AIRBAG THAT COULD KILL ME). I AM CONSIDERING GOING TO THE NEWS (NOT SURE WHAT THEY WILL DO). I AM SOOOOO VERY UPSET. I JUST BOUGHT THIS MUSTANG IN JAN THIS YEAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD MUSTANG. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AT APPROXIMATELY 80 MPH, A FUEL ODOR EMITTED FROM THE AIR VENT INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE A SMOKE TEST WAS PERFORMED AND THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,400. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

PAINT IS BUBBLING ON FRONT LIP OF HOOD. THERE IS ALSO A SMALL SPOT ON THE ROOF BUT UNKNOWN IF IT IS RELATED TO THE PROBLEM. HOOD IS MADE OF ALUMINUM AND FORD APPARENTLY KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM SINCE THEY ISSUED A TSB IN 2004 ON THIS VERY SUBJECT. THEY WON'T COVER THE FIX BECAUSE OF MILEAGE BUT THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MILEAGE. THIS WAS CAUSED BY IRON CONTAMINATION AT THE FACTORY BEFORE THE CAR WAS PAINTED.

MY VEHICLE AND THE SUBJECT OF THIS COMPLAINT IS A 2014 FORD MUSTANG GT. THE DATE OF THE INCIDENT IS APPROXIMATE AS IS THE VEHICLE MILEAGE. I WAS TRAVELING NORTHBOUND ON N BROOKS ST. IN BRAZORIA TX. I WAS IN A SCHOOL ZONE AND MY SPEED WAS 25 MPH. I APPROACHED AN INTERSECTION CONTROLLED BY A BLINKING RED LIGHT AND APPLIED MY BRAKES TO BRING MY VEHICLE TO A STOP. MY VEHICLE DID NOT COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BUT CONTINUED ACROSS THE INTERSECTION IN WHAT I CAN DESCRIBE AS A SLOW JERKING MOTION. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO GULF COAST FORD IN ANGLETON TX ON 5/12/15 AND SPOKE TO THE SERVICE MANAGER. HE DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE AND SAID HE WOULD DO SOME FURTHER CHECKING AND CALL ME BACK. HE HAS NOT CONTACTED ME. I PLACED A PHONE CALL TO HIM TODAY 5/15/15 AND WAS TOLD HE HAD A GUEST IN HIS OFFICE AND WOULD RETURN MY CALL. HE HAS NOT RETURNED MY CALL THIS IS THE FIRST TIME AN INCIDENT LIKE THIS HAS HAPPENED. *TR
