general problems of the 2016 Ford Mustang

Manufacturer has failed or is unable to remedy this safety recall for your vehicle in a timely manner. The recall was from September 16, 2025. It has now been over half a year with no remedy. I live in a salty air state and the last thing I want to happen is to drive with a seat belt with reduced effectiveness. I've already been in an accident a decade ago where a woman t-boned me. I had a 2001 Mustang convertible at the time with the convertible down. It's just like this Mustang with the recall but older. Thankfully the airbags and seat belt worked. Something needs to be done ASAP !!!!.

They have a recall for the seatbelt so I got my car inspected and tested and my seatbelts are fine. I use this as a rental car and my business is stopped and I’m losing money every day that I cannot rent this out.

On may 20, 2024 I elevated this issue to Ford customer service (case reference: cas494959874) and they were unable to do anything for me.

Already had the air assembly fixed , now this latest recall. All around this is an unsafe car to drive, it only has 11,000 miles on it and it has had major defects and sever things go wrong . It's a lemon.

I was involved in an incident where a deer jumped out in front of me. I swerved and my car went through a brick mailbox. My airbags took a while to come out, but when they did I was burned and blistered.
