2005 Ford Mustang GT review from North America
"Ford's management dropped the ball on the clutch, transmission and throughout bearing setup"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch, transmission and throughout bearing.
General comments?
I love the looks of my 2005 Mustang GT Convertible and the fit and finish seems reasonable. However, the clutch, throughout bearing and transmission are junk. Wines, groans, clunks and notches are the order of the day. The car is not fun to drive and I avoid it after only 1,200 miles.
