Worried? Don't you have a warranty? If there is actual issues, take it to the dealer and have them fix it.

I did. I'm having the seats looked at but was told the air noise is normal "it's a mustang" and they didn't bother to even look

What does having a warranty do with his comments? He posted issues he is having to see if others might be noticing the same thing (hence the dealers "it's a Mustang comment")...

I hardly think that "it's a mustang" is enough justification to decline a quality issue with a brand new car. I would bring it up again, and if your service adviser still declines, bring it to the attention of the service manager. If they won't do anything, maybe take it to another dealer. You are not obligated to use the dealer that you bought the car from.

Agree and this ^^^ is very good advice...I learned this lesson very painfully with my current car. Don't hesitate to take it to another dealer if they don't solve your issues.

Bullshit on the wind noise being a Mustang thing. There might not be a recall on it yet, but there probably will be. Definitely take it back in. I believe with the Explorers, it was just the windshield seal that needed to be fixed.

I've noticed what you are saying about the seats in a bunch of different pics, looks bad.

As far as "warranty" goes...what a joke getting a Ford dealer to do anything...it's about as good as having 2 balls and no stick.

Push them till you satisfied. Good luck.

Oh BTW, I had Ford replace a seat on a 2006 GT. They pull the cover off and put a new one on that comes out of a box...100% wrinkled. I was horrified when I saw it (looked like a shirt you leave in the washer overnight) and they told me over time it would be normal...it was.

I don't have any weird wind noise in mine. My seats have had lumps or whatever but I don't think it was defective.

I have seen a few of the leather seats with stretching issues. This is the one thing that is keeping me from buying a GT with 50th package. Below is a brand new car in the showroom. Look at the drivers bolster.
To the OP.... I would be sure they fixed it to your satisfaction.

I'm very happy with my dealership, but if they ever gave me a response that I deemed inadequate then I would be on the phone to Ford (and probably would not return to that dealership, a fantastic thing about avoiding boutique brands is that you have real choices for service).

I think stay polite and do not take no for an answer ("no" means you need to either go up or around) will take care of things the majority of the time.

Good advice from the other posters. Dealerships usually don't shy away from fixing warranty items. They get paid by Ford for whatever repairs they make under warranty. Recommend you get every issue you have fixed to your complete satisfaction including the wind noise. If the dealer won't work with you go to Ford Support directly.

From your interior photo my biggest concern would be stretching on the outside bolstering of either front seat. That's where the air bags are. But definitely get the stretching on the inside of the seat fixed to your satisfaction.

I have about 350 miles on mine so far already, no bunching of the seats and I don't hear the wind sound you mention. The cabin seems to be sealed really tight. Hardly any road noise. I have a 2004 and it sounds like there is no cabin with how loud the road noise and wind sound gets at highway speeds. I agree with some of the others...go back to the dealership. And if they don't help, go to another Ford dealership. Your warranty is good at any of them.
