My '16 had the symptoms on the first recall go around. Dealership did the harness but not the camera. Still had the symptoms after the fix. I replaced the camera myself. Never had a problem since. Definitely ignoring this go around.
Note: there were claims out there that the aftermarket...
I use this one: Coverking SPC994 Mustang Moda Super Stretch Car Cover - Pony Logo (15-23)
But only when I wash the car and immediately pull it into the garage anticipating that it won't get used for a while (i.e. just to keep the garage dust off of it). I blow it off with one of those little...
If you get the '16-'17, you can add the Ford Performance Power Pack to get back the power of the gen3 coyote with direct injection. I suspect that they de-tuned the gen 2 to make it run on low octane gas. The power pack tunes appear to remove that de-tune by requiring that you run high octane...
My speakers haven't cut out like that mid-trip, but I have had several times where they are cut out when turning on the car. Power cycling the radio has always restored them. I'd bet that charging the battery in the shop was not responsible for restoring your speaker function, but merely power...
The locksmith should also be able to do it. I used ForSCAN to add my extra key fob, which was from the 2018 MY... i.e. the new design with easy access to the glove box key. It's like the engineers that designed the 2016 fob completely forgot about the glove box lock and were only thinking...
Unfortunately, I'm back...
The LH side front lower control arms are starting to go out again at 60K miles. I am increasingly concerned that by some stroke of bad luck, something was assembled just a little bit "off" at the factory which is causing the steering linkage to bind up; resulting...
I believe that Blackstone Labs charges about $35 and will send you a sample collection / mailer kit for free. I would skip straight to having them analyze the oil. They test for a bunch of things that can give you insight into the engine's health. They also compare your results to the average...
9.5 yrs old and 60K miles (2016 GT/CS w/ FRPP Power Pack stage 2). Aging quite well, all things considered. However, the paint is and always has been crap. The aluminum hood is corroding in several places (will cost about $2k to replace it). Mechanically, the only significant unplanned...
My OEM lugs worked fine until I started using an impact gun to remove them. The impact twists the outer shell on the inner nut so they get tight in the socket. The first go around at least 2 of them failed, replaced them with the Gorrilla solid black ones. Then no worries after years of...
This was a total bust! It finally stopped raining / snowing for a bit so I ran it through the touchless car wash.
First problem was the machine battering my tires. It was like a continuous curb check all the way though. I swear the track made contact with the undercarriage (there was a...
When accelerating, the torque flows from the engine to the wheels and tightens up the drivetrain in that direction. When you cut the throttle, the torque reverses and flows from the tires to the engine. This unwinds the tension in the drivetrain and then reverses it. Any time it does that...
There is also some play / gear lash added from the rear differential.
+1 on the Steeda clutch helper spring.
I tell the other drivers in my house (all of them drive stick) not to worry because the Mustang's clutch will embarrass everyone. The newest driver was developing bad shifting habits...
Mine stays pretty clean in the summertime, but a single trip in the winter around here (even with dry roads) gets salt and crap all over it. I'm going to try using a touchless car wash that has an undercarriage spray using a monthly subscription to keep it "rinsed" off (and then hand dry it...
The vehicle's power in / power out sensor that the BMS uses to monitor usage/replenishment for managing charging is in-line between the positive battery post and the fuse / relay box. The owners manual advises to not charge directly at the battery post because the BMS would be unaware of the...

I put pigtails on all my vehicles that don't get used every day. I have expanded to having 3 PulseTech chargers and move them around between the vehicles as needed.
I use the PulseTech battery maintainer / reconditioner. It has been fantastic at restoring / desulfating the battery. It utilizes an in-line standard SAE-2 connector, comes with a matching pigtail for permanent installation on the vehicle, and general purpose terminal clips.
I just started on my second set of WS90s. Excellent snow performance. I have rarely unintentionally lost traction with them. They have even screwed up a few donuts by gripping too well. I live at the top of a hill and have motored past AWD crossover types that were just slipping (presumably...
A while back I replaced the cam phaser solenoids. While I was at it, I installed the Ford Performance aluminum cam covers.
I suspect that the removed factory cam covers are essentially worthless now, since it is unlikely that anyone else would need a factory replacement. Just trash them? Or...
Absolutely! The landscapers at work blow shit all over the parking lot, including at the cars. Even had one chump blow it at my car while I was in the car with my windows down...
