    Strange stereo problem.

    I had a strange thing happen to the Shaker-500 in my Mustang Friday Night. I went to a 'Cruise Night' in my area, and when I got in my car the stereo seemed to be working fine, but since I had a friend with me the volume was turned down, but I could hear the music playing. After I dropped my...

    Complaint Letter

    (rjla67)Also, during this entire experience, not once did our salesman offer any information on the vehicle I was interested in purchasing, nor did he offer any information about Ford, the dealership, service, warranty, nothing. All he was interested in was how much money I was willing to spend...

    Complaint Letter

    ----------------------------------------------------- Last November (after ordering my 05 and waiting for it to be built/delivered) I happened to see a Screaming Yellow GT at a dealership by my job, so I stopped to take a look at the car. I believe it was a deluxe model with the standard radio...

    Complaint Letter

    Here is the way it worked for me when I ordered my 05 in October 04- Called (and stopped by) several dealerships and told them I had X-Plan. No dealers I talked to said they would accept the plan on inventory cars, but they would order me a car and accept the plan on that car, and the delivery...

    How Long Did You Wait For Yours ?

    your 05/06 order If I were you I'd be calling other dealers and asking them what their allocations are for the 06 Mustangs, and how long it would take them to get your car once you order from them. ------------------------------------- To give you an idea of what I went through with my 05...

    ordered cars - how long did it take to get them?

    When I ordered my GT last year (10/20/04) my dealer said the car would arrive in 6 weeks, but with delays and parts shortages the wait turned out to be close to 9 weeks (drove the car home on 12/28/04). On the other hand I've seen people that ordered around the same time I did taking delivery...

    Need help running VIN # on Ford's line.

    If you're talking about the ERL don't bother with the VIN when checking your order...use the order number, dealer code, body type and you should be okay. When I was waiting for my car I tried the VIN and it never worked.

    Stereo Question

    My 05 Mustang GT was built on 12/14/04 and I took delivery on 12/28/04. I had problems with the first Shaker 500's CD player skipping once in a while...(it would work fine for a few weeks, then start skipping all the time) so I stopped using the CD player until the dealer replaced the head...

    Different rim offsets?

    I can't seem to post pictures here so I'll go with a link to a picture of my car. When I got my 05 Mustang I took the chrome bullitts from my 03 Mustang and put them on the new car. The offset was a little different from the stock 05 wheels but I like the look of the chrome on the new car...

    Transmission Is Screwed

    Not that it makes a difference in your case (since it's close to 30 days at the dealership) I don't think you can count the days BEFORE you notified the dealer about the problem and brought the car in for repair. Let's say that something goes wrong with my car (engine misfires/runs rough...

    ridiculous MSRP markups???

    You could be right in that he was lying when he told me that people pay the crazy markups on the Mustangs they sell. I do know of one person that admitted to me that he paid the $5000 when he bought his Mustang last October from Pasadena Ford (he asked what I paid for my car...which has more...

    ridiculous MSRP markups???

    Earlier this year...I believe March 10...I stopped by the service department @ Pasadena Ford to ask about a problem with my 05 Mustang, and while at the dealership I saw an 05 Mustang GT 'Vert on the lot with different wheels and tires on the car. When I looked at the sticker it said 'wheels and...

    Fair SoCal dealer

    Before I ordered my car last October I talked to several dealers about 1)accepting X-Plan and 2)how long from order to delivery. On the day I ordered the car I had one dealer tell me 'you're not going to get one at X-Plan' and 'even if you order it's going to take a year to get the car since...

    Fair SoCal dealer

    I was able to get my 05 Mustang GT at the X-Plan price on 12/28/04 (ordered the car on 10/20 and took delivery on 12/28). That dealership is not accepting plans on the new Mustangs (from what I heard I was lucky to get X-Plan when I got m car). As to dealers selling the Mustang at MSRP, I've...

    Fair SoCal dealer

    If you're trying to get the employee pricing plan that Ford has started offering recently it's not going to happen on the Mustang...this is from the Ford ads I've seen about that offer. In regard to other plans (X-Plan for example) it's up to the dealer if they will accept the plans. Most...

    Holes in Bumper

    Based on pictures I've seen of cars coming off the truck at the dealerships nothing in attached to the front (or rear) bumper. During dealer prep they install the license plate frames and the dealers paper advertisment where the plates go. When I picked up my 05 Mustang at the dealer the...

    Got My Dora but no Dora Number???

    In regard to priority numbers: The way I understand the system the numbers range from 10 to 99 (the lower the better) so you got a great number. On the day I ordered my car I had one dealer tell me that if I ordered the car I wouldn't see it for at least a year, then called the dealer I ordered...

    Got My Dora but no Dora Number???

    I would think it's going to take a while for your order to be accepted into the system where it would give you updates on the order. In my case I didn't start calling Ford until I got my DORA and VIN which was approximitly two weeks after ordering the car. I ordered my car using X-Plan (and as...

    Got My Dora but no Dora Number???

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I ordered my 05 on October 20 2004, and picked up my DORA and VIN on November 4. First for the DORA...I don't recall a specific number for the DORA itself, but what I do remember is I had a Priority number of 20 and a...
