The drivers of a newly purchased 2020 Ford Mustang SC GT confronted a series of vehicle issues and defects mere weeks after taking the vehicle home. The problems first emerged during the initial 44 days of ownership, when the vehicle was still relatively new, with low mileage.
The clients reported that the Check Engine Light (CEL) was illuminated, and that the vehicle exhibited symptoms of slipping between gears. At times, the Ford Mustang would shift to neutral while driving and when it did shift, it would suddenly slam into gear, accompanied by an unusual burning smell.
They also noted fluid leaks in the vehicle. The servicing dealer identified trouble codes P6874, P0867, and P0868, and initiated an adaptive drive learning strategy to address these issues. The servicing dealer replaced the pickup’s cooler lines in an effort to resolve the leak issue.
In a subsequent repair visit with the vehicle’s mileage less than 25,000, the clients reported various concerns. These included a request for a multi-point inspection, improper rearview camera function, a brake pedal bracket fracture, and significant oil leak.
To address these issues, the servicing dealer replaced the rear camera, reconfigured it, and cleared the associated error codes. They also replaced the brake pedal assembly, and in response to the oil leakage issue, they replaced the transmission cooler lines, topped off the transmission fluid, and thoroughly cleaned the vehicle’s under-chassis area.
