2005 Ford Mustang LX review from North America
"The 2005 Ford Mustang V6 car is a piece of trash"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Frozen Parking Brake @ 5,000 Miles
Frozen Parking Brake, dealer had to replace both destroyed rear rotors and parking brake @ 5,000 miles.
Destroyed Rear Rotors again at 10,000 Miles, this time dealer would not fix or replacing freezing parking brake.
Dealt with frozen parking brake all winter of 2005 into 2006, and dealer would not fix, had it at the dealer 5 times.
Sold the car and got a toyota scion instead.. much better.
General comments?
Do not ever buy one of the "newer" mustangs, or a ford for that matter either, they are pieces of crap as most american cars are anymore hence why they are going out of business practically.
