2000 Ford Mustang review from North America
"A bargain, if they can fix the clutch problem"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The clutch has gone out once and is showing signs of going out again. It rattles quite a bit when I release the pedal. The dealer cheerfully replaced the clutch after they diagnosed it at about 3000 miles, but about 3000 miles later it is going again. I have driven manual transmissions in three different cars over the past seven years and this is the only one to give me trouble. Ford has done something wrong here. Anybody else have this problem?
General comments?
I love driving the car, wish I had the money to bump up to GT or Cobra, but for the base V6, it does quite well.
