2001 Ford Mustang Deluxe Coupe review from North America
"A waste of space and money!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first bought the car, it seemed to be fine, it ran great for about 2 weeks, after that the clutch started making a horrible screeching sound, I took the car back to the place that I purchased it from, the clutch had went out, and needed replaced, luckily the dealership offered a 30 day Warranty on all vehicles, so I was able to get that replaced.
The stereo went out and had to be replaced with an aftermarket stereo that did not work well with the Mach460 Sound system in the car.
At 89,000 miles the power windows both quit working, they would roll down, but not up... so they were stuck up.
The exhaust manifold cracked and broke causing me to have to replace the exhaust manifold.
General comments?
I always wanted a Mustang, once I got one I felt ripped off, I like the car, however it was not all it seemed.. it was uncomfortable to drive, and sit it.. not just for me, but anyone who sat in the piece of junk... The shifter was in a stupid spot, so if anyone every put a drink in the cup holder you would just about knock it over shifting gears... the power seats were so slow... I think this year of car was horrible, and would not recommend this to anyone, maybe a new Mustang... but I have my doubts.
