2005 Ford Mustang Gt

TOOK 2005 MUSTANG IN FOR SERVICING AND THE HORN NOT WORKING. AFTER FINDING THE HORN, FUSE AND BOX WAS WORKING OK, THEY NEEDED TO EXTRA WORK TO FIND OUT WHY IT WOULD NOT WORK FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. $200 MORE FOR TESTING, THEY SAID THE WIRING HARNESS BOX WAS CORRODED. FOR ANOTHER $200 THEY NEED TO DO A WATER LEAK CHECK TO FIND WHERE WATER WAS GOING TO THE WIRING HARNESS. IT WOULD COST BETWEEN $3,000 TO $4,000 FOR NEW BOX, WIRING HARNESS AND LABOR. WOULD HAVE TO GUT OUT THE CAR, TAKE OUT DASH, SEATS, DOORS, TRUNK. THEY ARE NOT SURE IF IT WOULD BE UNDER WARRANTY, DEPENDS ON WHAT PART IS MAKING IT LEAK. THEY COULD NOT TELL ME WHAT PART WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. I AM TAKING IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP FOR A 2ND OPINION TOMORROW. THEY ALSO SAID IF I DID NOT GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF, THE CAR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WOULD SHUT DOWN ONE BY ONE.

NUMEROUS OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME ISSUES FOR THE 2005. FORD DEALER ADMITS THAT THEY (GALPIN FORD, CALIFORNIA) HAVE SEEN THIS MULTIPLE TIMES BUT REFUSE TO MAKE GOOD ON IT. *TR
