2006 Ford Mustang Gt

2006 MUSTANG GT MANUAL TRANSMISSION. REPLACEMENT OF BATTERY RESULTS IN ENGINE STALLING WITH AIR CONDITIONING ON WHEN CLUTCH DEPRESSED.. THE OWNERS MANUAL STATES ON REPLACING BATTERY THE COMPUTER NEEDS TO RELEARN IDLE. THIS DOES NOT WORK AT LEAST NOT IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN OVER A NUMBER OF DAYS WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER RUNNING AND DEPRESSING THE CLUTCH EITHER COMING TO STOP OR TURNING A CORNER THE ENGINE IDLE WILL DROP FAR ENOUGH WHERE THE VEHICLE WILL STALL RESULTING IN A LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES POSSIBLY CREATING A DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE VEHICLE RAN CORRECTLY BEFORE THE BATTERY REPLACEMENT AND ONLY HAS 22,000 MILES. GOOGLING THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET FINDS NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WHICH ARE IDENTICAL OF WHICH OWNERS OF THE 4.6L FORD V8 (NOT JUST MUSTANG) ARE REPORTING IDLE AND STALLING PROBLEMS AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY AND WITH THE ISSUE NOT RESOLVING ITSELF AS THE OWNERS MANUAL STATES RESULTING IN EITHER A COMPUTER REFLASH OR THROTTLE BODY REPLACEMENT. THIS DEFECT COULD RESULT IN A CRASH CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. FORD SHOULD RECALL AFFECTED VEHICLES AND HAVE THE DEFAULT IDLE SETTING SET FOR A HIGHER VALUE SO THE AIR CONDITIONER WHEN ENGAGED DOES NOT RESULT IN THE ENGINE STALLING. THE IDLE OF ENGINE IS ERRATIC WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER ON SINCE IT IS ENGAGING AND DISENGAGING DUE TO THE LOW IDLE SPEED < 500RPM. BY NOT USING THE AIR CONDITIONER THE IDLE SPEED WILL RETURN TO ITS NORMAL SPEED OF AROUND 600 TO 700RPM BUT STILL FLUCTUATES SLIGHTLY. NOT BEING ABLE TO USE THE AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT ACCEPTABLE, ESPECIALLY IN THE SOUTH EAST. THE CONTROL FEED BACK OF THE IDLE SYSTEM IS INCORRECTLY OPERATING WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER LOAD ON IT. *TR

2006 MUSTANG GT- FUEL SENDER NEEDS REPLACEMENT. TROUBLE CODE P0456 COMES UP. THE FUEL PUMP ON VEHICLES BUILT BEFORE JANUARY 1ST, 2006 HAD AN OVERSIZED ORIFICE AND WOULD CAUSE A LEAK IN THE EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM. THE FUEL PUMP ITSELF WILL NOT BE AT DANGER FOR A FAILURE ALTHOUGH WITH AN EVAP CODE YOU MAY LOSE FUEL ECONOMY DUE TO THE TANK NOT BEING PROPERLY PRESSURIZED. ALSO YOU WILL NOT PASS A 'SMOG' TEST WITH THIS CODE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 FORD MUSTANG GT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE CANNOT PLACE FUEL IN THE VEHICLE. THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATES THAT THERE IS A QUARTER TANK OF GAS OR A HALF TANK OF GAS; HOWEVER, THE FUEL PUMP WILL SHUT OFF AND PREVENT HER FROM PLACING ANY MORE FUEL INTO THE TANK. WHEN FILLING THE TANK, GASOLINE WOULD ALSO SPIT BACK OUT FROM THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE SLOW FILL WAS FAULTY. THE MANUFACTURER COULD NOT ASSIST BECAUSE THERE WAS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN PRODUCED FOR THE FAILURE AND THEY KNEW HOW TO PERFORM THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 35,900.

MY 2006 MUSTANG GT WILL NOT TAKE FUEL. IT HAS HAD THE TANK REPLACED ONCE. THE VERY NEXT TIME I NEED TO FUEL UP, AFTER GETTING THE NEW TANK, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. IT WILL NOT FUEL UP. THE CAR HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERS SINCE THEN (10/24/07). THE DEALER HAD FORD ENGINEERS OUT TO LOOK AT THE CAR-THEY SAY IT CANNOT BE FIXED. HOW DO YOU MANUFACTURER SOMETHING THAT CANNOT BE FIXED? *TR

PURCHASED MY 2006 MUSTANG GT IN DECEMBER OF '06. IT HAD APPROX. 59 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR. THE LATEST (AND CURRENT) PROBLEM IS THAT THE CAR WILL NOT TAKE ANY GAS. THE FIRST TIME THE PROBLEM OCCURRED THE DEALERSHIP CHANGED THE FUEL TANK. THE VERY FIRST TIME I TRIED TO FILL UP THE SAME THING HAPPENED-IT WILL NOT TAKE THE GAS. THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING AT THE DEALER SINCE 10/25/07-TODAY IS THE 28TH OF NOVEMBER. FORD HAS HAD SEVERAL ENGINEERS OUT TO LOOK AT THE CAR AND THEY CAN NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. *TR

I AM HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME FILLING THE TANK OF THE 2006 MUSTANG GT. THE AUTOMATIC PUMP IS TRIGGERED ALL THE TIME, AND ONLY ALLOWS A SMALL AMOUNT OF GAS TO BE PUMPED. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE GAS INDICATOR IN THE DASHBOARD TELL ME I WAS ON EMPTY WHEN I WAS NOT. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS AND FORD MOTOR COMPANY DIRECTLY, AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM THEY RECOGNIZE OR HAVE EVER HEARD OF. THEY ALSO WILL NOT COVER ANY COST TO REPAIR OR DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM.*AK

ON THE 27TH OF MAY 2006 I TOOK MY MUSTANG GT WITH ONLY 1,069 MILES TO BRUNSWICK FORD. THE CAR WAS SHIFTING LIKE A 95 GT HARD TO SHIFT ON THE WAY MY FUEL JET PUMP WENT OUT. THEY FIXED THE JET PUMP BUT SAID THE TRANS WAS FINE. AT 3,556 MILES I TOOK IT BACK FOR THE TRANSMISSION . IT WAS MAKING A WINDING SOUND THEY REPLACED THE INTERNALS AND THE NOISE WAS STILL THERE. SO THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION. THEY HAD TO BLEED THE CLUTCH 4 TIMES TO GET IT TO SHIFT HALF WAY RIGHT .NOW AT 5,713 MILES THE REAR CALIPER WAS STICKING. THE REPLACED THE CALIPER. AND IT LEFT ME STRANDED AT WORK WITH A STUCK CALIPER. THIS IS A MUSTANG GT NOT A PINTO AND FORD NEEDS TO COME UP WITH A PLAN TO FIX THIS CAR. *NM
