Tail lights look ok, but honestly your GT emblem is a little crooked.:lol:Guys I still want to know if my tail light is off 4 degrees!!!!!!
I'm starting to think the topic on S550 QC and build quality is how Americans feel about abortion, gay marriage, and gun control.I'm not defending Ford, but my Mustang has no body alignment problems, no paint problems that I would consider to be Beyond normal. It's a great car for the $. I do own one of those $100.000 vehicles and I also has its share of we'll call QC items. I suppose if I was totally OCD about it I'd take it back for repair(I hate using the word repair because it's not broke). Just some people lose credibility on some of the things they're complaining about " tail light off 4 degrees ". It's a Mustang not a Bentley.
Agree! Sorry for the length of this "novel", but jeez people. The OP had problems with his brand new car, comes to his mustang brethren for support, and he ends up taking the heat? Granted, some of the OP's problems might seem a little "nit picky" to some of us (ie the tail light), but he's far from alone in having QC issues, as evidenced by other long threads on the issue.It amazes me that people will so vehemently defend Ford's shoddy build and quality problems.
Yep. This is my 7th new " mass produced," vehicle. It takes the cake in QC issues. Minor, but there.It amazes me that people will so vehemently defend Ford's shoddy build and quality problems.
Sorry but there's a TSB to replace squeaky non-PP and PP brakes for FREE. One just has to get off one's ass and go get it done. It's been a known issue for months and months and Ford is addressing it for free.Love how some on here actually defend the squealing brake issue and claim that it's "cause 6 pot race brakes bro".
Owned, operated and worked on plenty of multi-piston brakes that don't squeal during normal driving..in fact my 6 piston ST's on my M3 NEVER make a sound. Funny, guess it's just my anecdotal experience, and not based in truth.
OP, I'm sorry you've been treated like this by your Mustang peers. ZERO camaraderie it seems. The QC issues, wether blown out of proportion because of this forum, or if they are in fact that bad throughout their entire production time of this model, have caused me to look elsewhere for a new vehicle. Shame, as I do really like everything about the new S550 on paper.
