2001 Ford Mustang Bullit GT review from North America
"Great cost for performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Has random stalling upon braking. If you keep it in gear it will keep the engine alive, but with clutch depressed or not in gear it will just die. Sometimes will happen 1-2 a day, sometimes once in a week.
Has random starting problems. Will take 2-3 tries to get it started and then will run fine.
Has howling coming from behind glove box. First ford said they couldn't hear it. Then it was the windshield cowl being replaced. Now they think some body seals may not be done properly.
General comments?
It's a great car. I love driving it.
But I'm at 26500 miles and its my second set of rear tires, will soon be 3rd set of front pad. And I'll be getting new slotted and drilled rotors all around. Maybe its the racing. But I go through this stuff fast.
