Manual Transmission problems of the 2012 Ford Mustang

I am hereby lodging a complaint about the mt82 transmission im my 2012 v6 Ford Mustang, and you may also include my 2011 v6 Mustang as well, as it also suffered the same problem. The date given is not the 1st, nor will it be the last time this has occurred. 99% of the time. . It shifts fine, however. . . Sometimes at low speed the trans will 'grab' the teeth or grind while shifting and shifting at speed(entering a highway or passing slower traffic)will result in gear 'lockout' and over revving. . . . Mostly on upshifts, but sometimes on downshifting too. I know I am one of a growing list(and an 18 year Ford dealer employee)of Mustang owners experiencing this problem. . . Ford needs to get on this before their reputation and the Mustang heritage becomes tarnished!!.

This vehicle is sometimes difficult to shift into gear. Shifting into reverse is a challenge requiring unusually high effort to engage push-down mechanism. Shifting into 1st from standstill is usually difficult and notchy, sometimes requiring me to do it all over again, even when I am blocking traffic. 1st-2nd shifting is sometimes uncertain as is 2-3, 3-4. Downshifting into 3rd and 2nd grinds sometimes. Clutch fully depressed fully at all times during shifts. The transmission also feels and sounds very clunky upon clutch depress/release.

Newly purchased 2012 Mustang coupe v6 has unusual trouble shifting from 1st to 2nd gears on the 6 speed manual transmission. . The shifting is not smooth, and feels notched as you slide it into place. Incident occurs daily, and concerns are rising for premature wear on the transmission. Currently inquiries have been made with the dealership, but no action has been taken.

2012 Mustang gt 5. 0 build 2/11. Shifting into 2nd gear has a little grind but feels better or completely goes away as the car warms up, also when turning shifting from 1st to 2nd has a grind no matter if the car is warmed up or not. I have also been locked out of 3rd gear under acceleration. This appears to be a safety concern as I have to deal with an inconsistent transmission.

The contact owns a 2012 Ford Mustang. The contact stated when accelerating and shifting from first to second gears he noticed that he couldn't fully move the lever into second gear. The vehicle was not inspected by a dealer nor had it been repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 1,400. The VIN was not available.

The contact owns a 2012 Ford Mustang. The contact stated that the transmission would not shift when attempting to shift in and out of fifth gear.

2012 Mustang v6 manual 6 speed transmission. Hard to shift into 1st gear. Stopped at a red light on pch and topanga canyon with my 3 year old in a baby daughter in the baby seat in the back behind me. I saw a driver behind me coming in too fast. I started prepping if I had to move forward into the intersection that had no traffic just in case. Would not shift into 1st gear no matter what I tried. Quickly I shifted into 2nd and saw the driver smash the breaks while his tires were smoking as he was approaching my rear end in a slide. Car had enough power to move me forward 10 feet and avoid a collision.

June, 2012 (2012 not a dropdown option). I currently own a 2012 Mustang rtr, this was purchased this year in June with 300 miles on the odometer. I experienced intermittent engagement problems with the transmission with gears 1-3 either upshifting or downshifting pretty much out of the gate. What happens is the gears fail to completely synchronize with the clutch in, resulting in anything from a partial lock-in, which causes the gears to grind, or a complete failure to engage, which requires a shift to neutral and repeated clutching to get a synchronization to occur. Currently the car has approximately 1500 miles and the problem continues on a completely random basis. I have not taken the car back to the dealer as nothing I do behind the wheel can make this happen at will and it wasn't until I was recently informed about the NHTSA's ongoing complaints with this issue that I thought I should voice my issues as well. While these occurrences have mainly been centered around the 2011 model year and have not yet resulted in an accident, I do not wish my model year car to experience a catastrophic drivetrain failure to be considered for a recall.

2012 Mustang gt 5. 0 1. Merging onto the freeway, could not get the car in 2nd gear. 2. This happens all the time. And could be deadly, 1 of these times, if the drivers don't recognize I can not accelerate up to speed, because im stuck trying to get my car into gear in a panic. 3. Nothing has been done by Ford or the dealer because the say nothing is wrong and it is normal!.

I currently drive a 2012 Ford Mustang gt coupe (this site will not let me select a 2012 Mustang from the drop down menu, only 2011), purchased 3/11/11. It is currently experiencing a "clutch stay out" problem. It is a six speed manual transmission. When shifting from first to second gear at high rpm, the clutch will not release for the shift until the rpms fall back below a certain level. I am unsure if this holds true for all the gears as my car is still fairly new and in break-in and I haven't taken any gear past 5k rpm. That said, the physical experience goes like this, "take first gear past 3k rpm, shift to second, car bucks, rpms fall, second is then engaged, car lurches/lunges forward after the clutch "catches" and then it launches one forward unpredictably. " this has happened to me every time I have shifted the car into second gear after taking first gear past 3k rpm.
