Engine Failure Problems of Ford Mustang

2011 Mustang gt with manual transmission- inability to shift into 3rd gear. It almost caused an accident as I was stuck slowing down into on coming traffic. The car is been in the shop multiple times. Also has severe knocking in the engine that goes way after 5 minutes. Ford states this is piston rattle and they tried a software fix. Nothing helped. I'm afraid of the engine damage or catastrophic engine failure while driving. There are youtube videos posted labeled 2011 Mustang knock. Ford is aware. . . They referred me to it(at least the service tech did. Ford is doing nothing!!! the car has been in the shop 5-6 times and there is under 5000 miles. The car had only 300 miles on it when they had to replace the gas tank pump because it dropped to zero at with a half tank of gas left. There is a bulletin on this. Help before some gets hurt by the transmission problem or the engine blowing out!!!!.

A used vehicle ('98 Mustang gt) was financed from a used car dealership by my daughter approx. 3 weeks ago. The salesman who closed the deal stated that the only items to be covered under any kind of warranty would be those regarded as safety items. Engine failure or cosmetic features would not be covered. Approx. 17 days after financing the vehicle, the rear sway bar broke while she was driving it. The car was immediately returned to the dealership to determine the problem where it sat without notification for another 2 or 3 days. We were informed by a representative (I'm not sure if it was the owner or the manager, due to the fact that out of the 4 or 5 people I spoke to, no one would claim management authority) that the part does not qualify as a safety item which means my daughter would be responsible for the entire cost of the part and the labor. The sway bar was removed by the dealership mechanic and I currently have it in my possession. There are definite signs that the part was cracked and ready to break long before the purchase was made. I attempted to work with the manager and/or the owner to get some resolution. I had offered to replace the part myself if they would be willing to simply purchase it. The manager said the only thing he would be willing to do is cover half the cost of parts and labor ($150). I feel that this part should be covered under the safety clause that the salesman originally told my daughter would be in effect. The cost of the part and labor doesn't bother me nearly as much as the fact that they are not willing to stand behind the vehicles they sell. Therefore, I am requesting that a complaint be filed against baja motors due to the fact that they insist a full safety inspection was performed on this vehicle, but that they refuse to stand behind a safety item which was clearly damaged prior to my daughter taking delivery. Sincerely, todd martinell.
