Fausted - Yep, I've had this steering issue since new as well. It is only left turns and sticks usually on sharp or hard turns. There seems to be no pattern to it and as such my dealer is 'unable to duplicate' after 2 tries. They asked Ford about a possible replacement of the EPAS gear, but Ford...
Very interested in Ford's explaination for this. There is NO WAY this could be normal. I just don't think they want to replace the $3k EPAS rack. When it happens on mine, it is like it is stuck until you move the wheel. So strange and disconcerting! Please see here too...
This is a REAL issue that Ford needs to put forth an effort to STOP. I have rented ten 6g Mustangs while traveling, coupe and convertible, and 3 of them (1 2015 V6 and 2 2016 I4s) have had this vibe; all common symptoms. Vibrations felt in pedals, steering wheel and seen in rear view mirror...
Anyone, anything new?
Wanted to revive this thread to see if anyone knows anything new... I just rented a 2016 EcoBoost Prem conv from National in FLL and IT had this steering catch on left turns too! It wasn't as bad as what I experience in my '15 GT conv, but still strange and still happening...
2016 rental too...
FWIW my '15 GT 50th Anniv AP conv came with the right rear window bracket unattached, repaired last fall, haven't had enough time to be sure it will hold as she's been in winter hibernation... Just rented a '16 EcoBoost Prem conv 9/2015 build from National in FLL that had the...
Vehicle at the dealership now... Ford won't replace an EPAS gear unless tech can get a fail code on it... Not really getting anywhere on this... Anyone with updates, ideas?
Well, checked my local dealer stock... Both convertibles on their lot had both rear window supports... Yep, not on mine! WTH Flatrock?! Time for another warranty visit. Grrrrrr.
After reading this thread I checked my top... 12/14 build... Sure as anything I have the brace on my left but not the right! I wondered why my window would jiggle more than my old S197 convertible! This explains it... drstara, do you have a bulletin number or part number for said "kit" that Ford...
Might be bigger than we think... Occurs in 2015 Escalade rental too
All, I have the seat back cooling problem on both of my 2015s... I rarely use the cooling so I'm just waiting in the background for a fix... Here's the thing... I rented a 2015 Cadillac Escalade ESV with the fam on vacation to...
Ah ha! I was going to post up about this... Thanks OP! Mine (Dec build, GT, auto, conv) has had my local dealer looking for this twice - they can never duplicate. After 1,200 miles so far I still can't find a pattern. Mine seems mostly on left turns, over 90degree turn of steering wheel. It will...
I know the guy, he's legit. Bought my Anniv Ed from him at a 'fair' (in my book) ADM for an early number - 0015/1964. This being one of the first ones listed on eBay, looks like he's trying for $15k ADM. More power to him. I was offered one of his 2 allocations, I declined at his early ADM. VIN...
For kicks and giggles I bought a spare '15 smart key off eBay, specifically one with the pony on it... Long story short, I programmed it to 2 different '15 rental Mustangs and mine at home... All worked fine! Only problem would be if you want the spare mini key. Some eBay keys have a blank, some...
Hey kids... FYI, I have a National rental 2015 EB Premium convertible currently with 3,500 miles on it and I've noticed the 'smoke screen' at idle... Happens after idling a few minutes and gets progressively worse as it idles. Raise it from idle, gone.
