| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Purchased a 2005 ford mustang in may, 2005. ford failed to notify costumers that some of the 2005 ford mustangs may exhibit the fuel bank being slow or difficult to fill. basically, the fuel pump will shut off while pumping gas, as if the tank was full. ford did issue a service bulletin, tsb 05-4-8, after i purchasing the car, suggesting that ford's service department will replace the gas tank. the bulletin stated that the condition may be due to the fuel tank vapor venting system inside the fuel tank. although the gas tank was replaced the problem remained. ford did not consider this a defect, but rather a characteristic of the new model of ford mustangs. as a result, i could not take the car on extended trips because i was not sure that i will be able to find a pump that will allow gas into the car. out of 7 service stations in vallejo, i was only able to use 1 successfully, and even that one now failed to give me more than $10.00 or less worth of gas. *ak |
