The vehicle began stalling at low speeds, in traffic, at red lights/stop signs and while turning. Several very close calls to date. You must restart engine during a turn often with other motorists bearing down on you. There are many complaints on this site and when you do a search on the internet. The dealership is also aware of it because they tell you right away that you will need a $500. 00 part to fix it and that does not include labor. I have also been told by a few mechanics that this used to be solved by replacing the idle air control switch,about a $40. 00 part. That part is not offered with this year and model but it comes on the $500. 00 part.
The car stalled while cruising at highway speeds. Needed to pull over to without power steering or brakes and restart the car. This is not an isolated incident. . Read more...
After coming to a stop, I try to accelerate and the car stalls and jerks into gear. I was told that the throddle was dirty. I had it cleaned and got a new air filter but was still experiencing the same problem. The next step was to replace throddle sensor. The mechanic advised to check the recall list and I several people who experience the same problem with no help from Ford. I saw this site and decided to post.

I am the owner of a 2005 Mustang. I have already had to replace the throttle body as my car (which is an automatic) would randomly stall out at lights. One time leaving me stranded in the intersection. It is very difficult to fill my gas tank as the gas pump nozzle kicks back for some reason while pumping. My speedometer will read inaccurately at times, sometimes reading extremely high numbers, sometimes not at all. I am using gps and my own discrection when gauging how fast I'm going. After a heavy rainstorm, when making left turns, my passenger floor becomes flooded by water pouring out from under the passenger side dashboard. My passengers feet get soaked as well as carpet, floormat and any other things I have in the floor board.
