Of course the flip side to that is: the year your cts and sl2 were brand new, there were probably people out there with those cars having issues that gave them pause about driving them.
Interesting. I have faith Ford will fix any problems with this car.
I'm in the aviation industry where even a failure of ONE component warrants what is referred to as an Emergency Aviation Service Bulletin (as in "you had better fix this right now and by the way, the particular model of your aircraft is grounded until all safety checks are complied with" type stuff) hence my referral to a potential recall if it is found that this particular component was defective or the manufacturer of the component did not comply with standardized component NDI testing under loads before production. OEM does not necessarily mean it came from the same source (Hint: Manufacturers are not wholly monitored and if they have been an OEM for some time and have an established good record, they get a "Pass off" as being compliant without oversight...it's done all the time).

I'm a pilot and even I know the rule of thumb find a reason to not fly when you want to go flying..it's a lot worse to plow into someones backyard than it would be to slowly coast onto the side of the road and still be fine there's laws lol like annual and hourly inspections with aviation but from the automobile manufacturing standpoint it's not as serious of an issueI'm in the aviation industry where even a failure of ONE component warrants what is referred to as an Emergency Aviation Service Bulletin (as in "you had better fix this right now and by the way, the particular model of your aircraft is grounded until all safety checks are complied with" type stuff) hence my referral to a potential recall if it is found that this particular component was defective or the manufacturer of the component did not comply with standardized component NDI testing under loads before production.

It was officially stated somewhere a few months back (mid-2014 about). Sorry I can't provide anything more concrete. I'm sure this will be confirmed in the near future though.
I'm glad the dealer was able to diagnosis this, Storm728. You're in good hands with the CSM and dealer.
Have you made an appointment with your dealer yet, Swagthony? It looks like your CSM has tried to get in contact with you; did you receive their message?
Let's get you back out on date night with no worries, SilverSpoon09. I've asked for your CSM to be in contact as soon as possible; please keep me updated when you've make an appointment with the dealer.
Let me know if you'd like me to loop in assistance from our Customer Relationship Center, if you do decide to take your Mustang in. I'll need your current mileage and best contact number at that time. :ford:
Trying to work out a time I can get out to the dealer. Very busy with the holidays. Thanks for the help and I will keep you up to date when I can get an appointment.
