In the morning, when it is freezing outside, my emergency brakes will not release. I have to wait until it warms up outside before I can drive my car. It has happened on two separate occasions, after sitting in my driveway stationery all night long.

My car is still under the extra care extended warranty. 3 weeks ago I was sitting at a traffic light I pushed the clutch in, to put into first gear and got ready for the light turn green, when my car suddenly lunched and the clutch master cylinder part pa6-gf25 broke . Part number pa6-gf25 broke and was lying inside the driver side interior floor. I can't believe ford used a plastic piece part pa6-gf25 to hold the clutch pedal to the clutch master cylinder. After close inspection I notice that due to stress over time it was broken in half. I could have seriously injured me or some else, when mention it to galpin ford, they said it's not there problem they wanted to charge me 450 dollars to fix the problem, my car is still in the shop and my bill in going to be over a 1000 dollars and they don't want to cover it under the warranty either, I ready for to file a class action lawsuit and a recall can someone help me with this or knows other people who experienced with the same problem.

I drive a 2006 ford mustang. I have had a brake problem similar to the problem that the toyota prius recall is having. When I am turning out of a parking lot and hit a bump, the brake give out. I took it in to have it looked at starting in october 2007, but the dealership looked at the brakes and said nothing was wrong. They wouldn't even record it in their computers. The problem has only been replicated when turning and hitting a bump simultaneously. The break pedal gives out and depresses all the way without providing any breaking. I have to remove my foot and re-apply the brake for it to work again.

I am contacting you to attempt to urge ford motor company to issue a recall on the large numbers of issues on 2005-06 ford mustangs (reference tsb 06-5-4). This tsb refers to a defective brake cable originally installed on these cars in which the rubber boot is prone to premature failure. This failure allows moisture into the brake housing. In very cold temperatures the parking brake will freeze disabling the vehicle. I have pursued repair of this issue with my ford dealer as well as ford customer service. They state that at this time the number of failures have not required them to issue a recall. This is their position eventhough the fix is to replace the oem hardware with upgraded materials. This is clearly a failure in a component and should be addressed regardless of the warranty which expired less than 2 months ago. I would appreciate any assistance to urge ford to remedy the problems that so many of its customers are facing and issue a recall for the defective parts.

I own a 2006 ford mustang gt. The parking brake has faulty seals causing water to wander past them and freezing my brakes when its cold. It has done this for three years in a row and im so sick of it. Other mustang owners are having similar problems and I don't think this should cost the consumers to fix correctly.

Hesitation at acceleration and unintended acceleration. Hesitation was not corrected at dealership, I corrected through computer reprogram with diablo programmer to decrease amount of throttle delay, hesitation gone. Unintended acceleration corrected by modifying the brake pedal to increase distance between gas and brake pedals which are extremely to close, solved problem. Dealership mechanics are inept and unskilled. Took me half hour to identify and correct pedal issue.

The brakes on my 2006 ford mustang locked up twice this winter. The brakes pads and rotors need to be replaced and are dangerous to drive with. The vehicle has less than 25,000 miles on it. The wear on the brakes is unusual and is not something that an owner would be checking at such low mileage. I have heard this happening on several ford models.

On the 27th of may 2006 I took my mustang gt with only 1,069 miles to brunswick ford. The car was shifting like a 95 gt hard to shift on the way my fuel jet pump went out. They fixed the jet pump but said the trans was fine. At 3,556 miles I took it back for the transmission . It was making a winding sound they replaced the internals and the noise was still there. So they replaced the transmission. They had to bleed the clutch 4 times to get it to shift half way right .now at 5,713 miles the rear caliper was sticking. The replaced the caliper. And it left me stranded at work with a stuck caliper. This is a mustang gt not a pinto and ford needs to come up with a plan to fix this car.
