im done checking. they will make the car right or they will by it back and i move on to something else. I hope its the former cause other than this nonsense i love this car. either way is fine by me and ford will keep me as a customer because they will have done the right thing to make me whole...

UPDATE!!!!!!! Planet ford 45 is officially taking on the warranty claim!!!!!!!!!!!! 5 minutes in the car and the shop foreman 100% agreed that it is NOT normal noise. it sounds like a styrofoam carton of eggs in the trunk constantly. he drove it around for a bit and everybody was just shaking...

update #324234 Planet ford 59 in humble, tx is denying my warranty claim after their technician found the source of the noise: its in the chassis itself. they are saying the noise is normal. Planet ford 45, after hearing the noise and agreeing that it is not normal but would require extensive...

Update: this is the panel making the noise. i can literally put my body weight on the back of the car or just push the panel with my hand and hear it creak. I can't feel it move but i can hear something make noise which means something is moving somewhere. The tech found it and could make the...

update: i have noticed that this tick noise only seems to happen when its warmer out. so of course when i go to visit the tech today its 60 degrees. he finds a creaking noise that while I hear isn't the issue and asks me to come back when its warmer. I also made it clear to the service dept that...

that is completely wrong. if its sheet metal the correct fix depends on whether or not the crack was painted and if corrosion is present. replacing a fender for a crack on the INSIDE of the trunk area is like doing a heart transplant because you need to be more active. 1. sand, seam seal, and...

of course it is.

i'll be opening them up eventually just to help out a little. i doubt it does much but oh well.

People treat you differently if the car is special. I have a 2022 mustang GT performance pack. its not perfect but it is rad. Better than my cobra in nearly every way. Nobody really cares. My 97 cobra? people acted like it was badass ALL the time. maybe cause i built it but I suspect it was...

the sound being pumped into the car gave me a headache. much better without it.

im getting that anyways. thanks man!

Dealer called me today and to his credit the service guy talked me into giving them another shot. kudos to him so monday morning i'm gonna go drive their best tech around and see what's what.

that's what i'll be doing since the dealer has given me the tired old "well we can only fix what we can hear" despite riding in the car, hearing the noise, and sending it back with more rattles and squeeks than when they got it. I even sent them the video. last night i noticed noise from the...

that's weird. do they all get the aluminum pumpkin too? this car is wild with just 3.73's, i can't imagine 4.09's lol

that's a fantastic way to do that. excellent work.

yeah, its more pronounced when you do that. i also told the service guy that and he forgot. i checked the tint, cut off any excess, buckled the seatbelts, and tomorrow i'll put some weight in the rear seats to see if that helps. so far, no change. also, no word form the service guy i sent...

thanks man i'll try all that today. the thing is, i really love this car and i like driving it without a stereo on. i don't want a louder than stock exhaust. dude, i was talking so much shit (quietly in a corner of while waiting for my car to get pulled around) when we were at the dealership...

before you do that talk with the GM and explain how this is a safety issue that you've asked about publicly. hit up ford customer service, they're equally useless but at least it might get on record that way. it definitely sounds like somethings up with the clutchpack in the diff or the s spring...

I've done all that and i don't have magneride. this is definitely not anything electrical, it is a mechanical sound that happens in coordination with bumps. I took the entire rear apart to look for this, add dynamat, and secure anything that was moving. that actually helped some other things...

anything is worth a look at this point. i'll check that out tomorrow. same tint guy i've used for over ten years, all his stuff is precut so i doubt it is an issue.
