2001 Ford Mustang GT review from North America
"A very fun ride"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Passenger window would not seal when rolled up.
A chirping noise in the dash that developed about 5 months after I got the car.
The seat belt covers will not stay on.
The idler has been replaced 3 times due to the car not starting when it is cranked, and the fact that it will not idle without going dead. I still have this problem although it has been fixed many times.
I replaced all 4 tires after 11 months of ownership- I am a woman & this was not due to driving it hard.
The hood was not bolted down on the passenger side- which caused it to jump up and down when I would drive over bumps.
General comments?
Generally, I love the way this car looks and the attention it gets.
It has great power and handles really well.
However, it seems to be un-fixable when it comes to why it will not crank sometimes.
