Hi There
In Nov. 2015, I bought a brand new 2016 Ford Mustang V-6 Auto. Being in Colorado, it did not get driven too much in the winter, just locally around town on non snow days, but when Spring came, my wife I took a nice road trip to Denver and I felt this high speed pulsating vibration while on the expressway about 70-75 MPH. I took it to the dealer and they said a tire was out on balance, so they re-balanced it and gave it back to me. During the drive home I felt it again immediately. I took the car back and they determined it was a bad tire that would not balance correct. Tire was replaced and car given back still vibrating. I took it back and this time I asked the service mgr to ride with me. He 100% agrees and so do several mechanics there is a bad annoying vibration and this "Vroom" "Vroom" "Vroom" sound as the vibration pulsates. I had done some searching on line and found lots of other 15-16's with the same exact problem. Being a former old school mechanic, I suggested getting another Exact same Mustang as mine and swap parts till you find the problem. Guess what?? the very 1st one he drove had the same problem. He found one that did not vibrate and swapped parts. They wound up replacing the Drive shaft and several other rear end parts and give the car back to me..... STILL VIBRATING.... The service mgr said basically everything rear of the trans has been replaced. The service mgr said he took another new 16 for a test drive and it also had the same vibration as mine. I again took the car back to the dealer. They had a Ford Corporate engineer come investigate. I was informed that Ford said this vibration is with in their specs. I have drove other 16 Mustangs and not all vibrate., But Mine and 2 other new ones did on their lot did.
Ford has turned their back on me and will not fix or warranty this problem. Do yourself a favor and google 2015 or 2016 Mustang Vibration and you will find Ford has a problem. Now I have a $30,000 vibrator I can't stand to drive. This was my 2nd New Ford and my last.
I have called Ford at 1-800-392-3673 twice and both times was told someone would call me by the end of the next day. Guess what??? NO CALL BACK. AS per the Colorado Lemon Law I have sent them a certified letter stating I want them to replace or buy back my car. My Mustang has been in the shop 4 times for a total of 43 days. I guess I am going to have to hire a Lemon Law Lawyer and sue FORD. THIS SUX
