2001 Ford Mustang GT review from North America
"An overwhelming Ford experience"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1.The throw out bearing made noise and clutch assembly was changed at 7,000 miles.
2.The lower control arm was changed at 10,000 miles due to unusual tire wear.
3.The aftermarket headliner from the dealer installed sunroof has fallen and was changed at 11,000 miles.
4.The Head Gaskets were changed at 12,000 miles. The head gaskets have been the biggest problem so far. The car was gone a month due to a faulty install on the first set of gaskets by a Certified Ford Dealership.
General comments?
The Mustang Gt is a great car as long as you are patient with the persisting problems.
The interior and appearance of the vehicle stand out from the rest, but the seats could use a make over. They are very uncomfortable and hard. The leather is soft and durable, but just uncomfortable.
