This Problem Across All Years
All Unknown Or Other Complaints (65)
• What failed & is it available for inspection? Air-conditioning system failure. Loss of cabin cooling; dealer recommends compressor replacement (may include related components pending contamination check). Vehicle is at a Ford dealer now; no repairs performed yet. I requested the dealer retain failed parts for inspection. • How was safety put at risk? I live in Las Vegas; ambient temps ~112°F-120 degrees. This is my primary vehicle for transporting my [XXX] and for my work schedule. With no A/C, cabin temps become dangerously high within minutes, creating a heat-related illness risk (child and driver), impaired concentration, and fatigue during necessary trips. • Has the problem been reproduced/confirmed? Yes. An independent shop first advised compressor replacement. A Ford dealer subsequently confirmed loss of cooling and produced an A/C repair estimate after diagnosis. • Inspected by manufacturer/police/insurance? Inspected/diagnosed by an authorized Ford dealer. I opened a Ford Customer Relationship Center case (XXX) and requested goodwill/after-warranty review. No police/insurance inspection. • Warning lamps/messages/symptoms & onset? No warning lights. Symptoms began with weak/intermittent cooling in early August 2025 and progressed to no cold air. Mileage at failure ~87,279. A/C clutch cycles but cabin air remains hot. (Owner context: original owner, [XXX] Vehicle: 2016 Ford Mustang GT 5.0.)

Backup Camera doesn’t work after purchasing a new camera from dealership and new wires. dealership said they didn’t know what was wrong after 3 months of working on car and new parts purchased
Brake Stop Lamps Remain On When I was driving, my car was having throttle/acceleration issues. When I had my foot on the gas, my car would accelerate and the RPMs would rise, but then all of a sudden the acceleration stopped as if I was not applying throttle. I had to constantly take my foot off the gas and reengage for the car to drive home. When I parked my car, I noticed that my brake lights were all on even though my car was turned off & it is draining the battery out. I did some research & found out there is a recall for this issue (22S02) for the 2015 Ford model & Dealership mentioned that recall doesn't apply to my vehicle. So I have to get the repair done by replacing the break light switch & Break pedal bumper assembly with my local Auto zone shop and pay from my pocket.
Rear View Camera, distorted or doesn't work at all at times. This has tried to be corrected 5 or 6 times at dealership, works for awhile, then happens again. Dealer does not give me a copy of what was done to attempt to fix problem. Now I see this same issue is for other Ford vehicles, just doesn't include the Mustang.
Ford is aware of the AC Evap Core issue on the 2015-2017 mustangs. This is a costly repair which comes out to $4,000 every year. This then causes failures on all other AC parts. There have been many complaints regarding this issue and no remedy has been issued in 8 years.
Weld between my clutch pedal and pedal assembly broke causing car to stall out in the road. This is a common issue with 2015-2017 manual mustangs.
Ford issued a notice in 2018 TSB 18-2256 stating that they knew evaporator cores were leaking refrigerant into the cabin of the cars but did not issue a recall. I know this issue may not lead directly lead to an injury from an accident but the system failure does release toxic chemicals that should not be in the cabin of a vehicle. Because this is a health risk to the occupants of the affected vehicles there should be a recall. I have had my 2016 Ford Mustang in to the Ford mechanic no less than 4 times since I bought it in late 2016 and each time they came up with some new cause for my AC not working and each time the system failed again in less than 2 years. Each time the problem was a supposed refrigerant leak in some other component of the AC system. Now that they've run out of things to replace they have speculated that the most likely cause is a bad evaporator core. My suspicion is that the evaporator core has been the issue from the beginning. Since Ford didn't issue a recall I have been subjected to years of exposure to dangerous chemicals due to this issue. Please make for recall these vehicles for the safety of the occupants of the affected vehicles
In March 2023 safety recall 22V082000 (Ford Number 22S06) was performed to fix a rear view camera malfunction. During the March 2023 work, only the wiring harness was replaced. My belief was that the actual camera should have been replaced as well. Replacing the wiring harness in March 2023 fixed the issue for 13 months, and then the issue re-occurred. Dealership charged $230 diagnosis fee to tell me that the issue was the camera and now the replacement of the camera cost me the $230 diagnostic fee; The $75 part fee for the camera; and the labor to replace the camera - Total bill out of pocket $530. I was informed after calling the Main Ford Customer service number that my 2016 mustang was not part of the camera recall (only the wiring harness). Camera was only covered with 2015 mustang. Seems odd to me that they make that distinction between model years but it is the same camera and obviously failed on my vehicle. As a major safety concern I believe Ford has failed to support their customers regarding this issue, and a second recall is warranted for the camera portion on 2016 models as well.
The rearview can result in a blank or have distorted image. As in NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V082000
Backup camera fails after recall repair is performed
Leaking evaporator core, seems to be very common with ‘15-‘17 Mustangs and Ford has done nothing about it.
Passenger door suddenly opens while driving even with doors locked . It’s all over in forums online. Ford won’t cover and sometimes won’t even fix the issue. Has happened on a few occasions already
Back up camera recall was unresolved by previous owner. I’ve tried fixing the issue myself but cannot find it. The camera displays blue and black screens while in reverse.
UNKNOWN
The passenger door opens on it's own while in motion. I am afraid my passenger will fall out of the car. The dealership will do nothing since they can not spontaneously make it happen in the short ride they take it on. This happens on a weekly basis. Been happening now for at least 2 years
While driving the doors will open to the secondary latch.
I recently purchased this Ford Mustang 2016 from a used car dealer and while driving this car couple of times we noticed that the car door got unlatched while driving, it doesn't happen all the time but it happened twice so I started researching and found out that there was a recall for this model but I could get the appointment immediately so by the time I was able to get the appointment the dealer says the recall is expired. I Called the dealer in September of 2023 but I got the appointment on October 9th of 2023. Dealer says recall expired on September 30th 2023. I didn't know that recall's expire at certain period. Please help us so we can drive safe.
Safety recall work for 22S06/ NHTSA 22V082 performed at dealer. Dealer confirmed that work was done correctly but the work as instructed from FORD did not correct the issue of rear view camera not working correctly. In fact it has made the condition worse. Recall issue as defined in 22S06 - The rear view camera could intermittently display a blank or distorted image05/19/
Under NHTSA recall 22V082. Ford refused to change the rear view camera despite it was under recall: The recall states to replace wiring harness and or camera replacement if necessary free of charge. My rear view camera is still distorted after they change the wiring harness and they told me to pay for the camera since its not covered under the recall. the letter that I got has the same recall number above but it didn't mention replacing the camera even though it has the same issue on the recall distort image when backing up. NHTSA and consumer reports/ FORD websites they all mention to replace both if necessary. I attached a sample copy of the recall from Ford stating that. Even ford specialist read that to me on the call when I asked her what did the recall number say about the fix. But the recall department says it s not covered. This is the detail for the recall below. Vehicles recalled: 2015-2017 Ford Mustang The problem: The wiring harness for the backup camera may be damaged or have an improperly soldered connection that can prevent an image from being displayed. The fix: Dealerships will replace the backup camera and/or repair the decklid wiring harness at no charge. How to contact the manufacturer: Ford will contact owners by mail starting on March 7, 2022. Owners may also call Ford at 866-436-7332. NHTSA campaign number: 22V082000. Ford’s number for this recall is 22S06.
This specific car model is a 2016 Shelby GT350 tech package that I owned for at least 7 months. In this time period i had only put 7k mikes on it before it blew up. After doing tons of research there is a tons of class action law suits against Ford for these cars. The incident that occurred was while driving the vehicle caught fire on the passenger side. Driving at the speed limit of 40 MPH no warning lights, Check engine lights or anything it just blew up. Up to this point all maitence was done properly and after doing some research it had the same issue report by multiple other Shelby owners of this year. This vehicle is not safe for the roads and if not properly investigated, it can cause someone to lose their life. I incurred a bruised head, burns and loss of hair from this accident. I’ve contacted Ford in regards to this issue and yet to have anything done. This vehicle should not be sold to the public with these known issues. There was recall sent out to fix this issue but my specific vin number was never contacted to fix it.
Unknown nothing is wrong with vehicle. Back camera is working perfectly without blurry picture. This is a false statement
Backup camera abruptly stopped working. It shows a hazy image with lines. There are recalls for 2016 Mustangs for that same issue, but none for my VIN.
HVAC A/C stopped working. It is a known issue with these model mustangs
I’ve been trying for a year to get my camera repaired on my car and they always say the parts aren’t in . I’m started to get mad . AutoNation ford mobile Alabama
Ford Motor Company and the NHTSA issued a recall on 2/15/2022 on my 2016 Ford Mustang model vehicle a few months ago. It was "Back over prevention: sensing system: camera". Recall no. 22V082000. Also, Recall Number: 22S06 DECKLID WIRING UNIVERSAL CAMERA FRETTING CORROSION. Ford sent me a letter on 2/17/2022 alerting me of the recall indicating that a resolution to this issue would come about early in the second quarter of 2022. It feels like we're now approaching quarter 3 of the year and I have yet to be notified of repairs and my rear view camera is now completely not functioning at ALL. When I've searched recently for this recall, there is no longer any more information on the Ford website, nor the NHTSA website. I find that completely bizarre. I'd love to car the proper repairs immediately being that Ford guaranteed that it would be repaired accordingly to resolve the recall issue. Can you please look into why this recall has disappeared from your website, from Ford's database, and please help me get my car repaired>
The bolts on engine valve cover come loose and back out over time causing the engine to leak oil
My backup camera, GPS, and satellite radio lost connection. I could not see behind me or find my location. The wiring harness going to the trunk stopped working. Dealership told me it was due to a “faulty design from the factory” and that it was from “opening and closing the trunk too much.” They replaced it, forced me to pay nearly $600, and told me to keep my receipts in case it ever becomes a recall. Not sure if this applies to every model or just the convertibles. I still see glitches periodically even with the new one.
1) I have a 2016 Ford Mustang. Within first 5k miles the reverse camera did not operate intermittently. Was told by dealer that no fix was available in 2016. The car is driven summer months only. As years went on I had same defect. They didn’t have a loaner available or I would have to rent a car myself for them to service the said defect. I left it at dealer a few times afterwards then they said they could not duplicate defect. Now they are charging it against my extended warranty and wanted me to pay deductible. I argued with service manager and deductible was waived. Here we are 2021 and defect still remains. Vehicle currently had 23k miles. 2) Also, had to buy new tires already. The Pirelli P-zero tires had major sidewall cracking. 3) Hood of vehicle has corrosion. Contacted Ford corporate with claim. Vehicle is out of warranty as of January 2021. They will make partial payment but not all.
Consistent failure of mustang air conditioning evaporator consistent with Ford TSB18-2256. Evaporator has failed 3 times, leading to at least one A/C compressor replacement. Failed evaporators are not available. Vehicle has less the 40k miles. It is unsafe for driver during extremely hot days. The problem has been reproduced and serviced by ford dealerships. There were no major symptoms prior to failure. Just slowly degrading AC performance.

I HAVE ALSO BEEN READING ON S550 MUSTANG FORUMS (YEARS 2015 - PRESENT) THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THIS. IT SEEMS LIKE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE OR SOMETHING AS THERE ARE PEOPLE WITH COMPLETELY STOCK CARS THAT ARE AFFECTED BY THIS, AND ALSO PEOPLE WITH 2018+ NEWER MUSTANGS AS WELL.

THIS MODEL HAS KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE A/C SYSTEM. A DEFECT IN THE EVAPORATOR CORE CAUSES POOR A/C PERFORMANCE, FOR WHICH THERE IS A POSTED TSB. I BELIEVE THERE IS POTENTIALLY A SAFETY ISSUE HERE WHICH WOULD WARRANT A RECALL. SINCE THE REFRIGERANT LEAKS INTO THE CABIN FROM THE EVAPORATOR CORE, THE WINDSCREEN FORMS A RESIDUE WHICH OBSTRUCTS DRIVER VISIBILITY, ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE IS GLARE FROM THE SUN. DRIVER VISIBILITY IS A FACTOR IN THE PROBABILITY OF AUTOMOTIVE ACCIDENTS, THEREFORE THE COMMONLY DEFECTIVE A/C SYSTEM DIRECTLY IMPACTS THE SAFETY OF THIS MODEL. TO MAINTAIN PERFORMANCE OF THE A/C SYSTEM, IT MUST BE TOPPED OFF. BUT VISIBILITY SUFFERS AND THE WINDSCREEN MUST CONSTANTLY BE CLEANED. ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE IS THAT REFRIGERANT THAT IS LEAKED IS CHRONICALLY INHALED BY OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE. I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THE TOXICITY OF R134A, BUT I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT IT BELONGS IN PEOPLES LUNGS. IF IS IT DANGEROUS TO DO SO, THEN I MUST REITERATE, THE COMMONLY DEFECTIVE A/C SYSTEM DIRECTLY IMPACTS THE SAFETY OF THIS MODEL. I SINCERELY HOPE THAT THIS ISSUE GETS MORE ATTENTION AND A SOLUTION IS PROPOSED. THANK YOU AND BEST REGARDS. *TR
AIR CONDITIONING IS FAILING AFTER 60,000 MILES. SUSPECT IT IS THE ALREADY WELL DOCUMENTED EVAPORATOR CORE GOING BAD.
I HAVE A 2016 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE ECO-BOOST WHICH IS JUST RECENTLY STARTED HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY PASSENGER DOOR OPENING WHILE GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THE FIRST INSTANCE HAPPENED A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO AND THE LAST ONE HAPPENED LAST WEEK ON JULY 22, 2020. THE SENSOR SYSTEM IN MY CAR DID ALERT US THAT THE DOOR WAS OPEN. I HAVE READ ON THE NEWS THAT THE MUSTANGS ARE BEING RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT WHEN I CHECKED MY VIN I SEE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME HOW I CAN GET THEIRS REPAIRED UNDER A RECALL SINCE IT IS HAPPENING TO MY VEHICLE. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. IN THE FIRST INSTANCE WE WERE COMING TO AN INTERSECTION AND WAS SLOWING DOWN FOR THE STOP LIGHT. THE SECOND INSTANCE WE WERE GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 65 MPH. WE HAD TO GO INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE TO SHUT THE DOOR. IN THE FIRST INSTANCE WE HAD THE TOP DOWN AND IN THE SECOND INSTANCE WE HAD THE TOP UP AND THE WINDOWS ROLLED UP.

THE EVAPORATOR CORE ON MY CAR HAS A LEAK AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, OUT OF WARRANTY AND WITH ONLY 4000 MILES ON IT, FOR $1800. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT; FORUMS AROUND THE INTERNET ARE FILLED WITH HUNDREDS OF PAGES OF CONSUMERS WITH IDENTICAL STORIES. FORD HAS ISSUED A TSB ACKNOWLEDGING THE PROBLEM (TSB #: TSB18-2166, NHTSA ID #: 10143077), BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL OR BUYBACK PROGRAM, DESPITE THE FACT THAT THOUSANDS OF CARS ARE LEAKING R134, A TOXIC CHEMICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY HAZARD, INTO THE AIR. THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE IF CONSUMERS DON'T HAVE THE SPARE NEARLY $2000 TO SPEND ON REPLACING THE CORE, MEANING THE OLD ONE WILL CONTINUE TO LEAK INDEFINITELY.

WHEN I HAVE MY FRONT RIGHT WINDOW DOWN ABOUT THREE INCHES AND ACCELERATE, I GET CAR EXHAUST INTO CABIN. I LATER FOUND OUT THAT THE EXHAUST MOVES FROM THE EXHAUST PIPE OF THE MOVING CAR INTO THE CAR TRUNK AND THEN INTO THE CABIN OF MY CAR. I FIRST NOTICED THIS DAYS AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR BUT THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE IT AND SAID IT WAS PROBABLY A NEW CAR SMELL. I HAD IT CHECKED AGAIN THREE MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE BUT, AGAIN, MECHANIC HAD SAME OUTCOME. I FINALLY GOT FED UP WITH THE SMELL AND ASKED AGAIN 18 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE. FORD SPENT WEEKS EXAMINING IT AND HAD A FORD TECHNICIAN ALSO EXAMINE THE CAR. FORD FOUND THE SMELL THIS TIME AND SAID ANOTHER MUSTANG LIKE MINE ALSO HAD THE SAME SMELL. FORD CLAIMED THE SMELL WAS NORMAL FOR THIS TYPE OF MUSTANG. I HAD AN EXPERT TEST THE CAR SEVERAL HOURS ONE AFTERNOON (SEE PART OF REPORT ATTACHED). HE FOUND THAT CARBON MONOXIDE WAS MUCH HIGHER IN THE TRUNK THAN IN THE CABIN. HE FOUND LEVELS AS HIGH AS 411 PPM IN THE TRUNK AND 14 PPM IN THE CABIN. HE CONCLUDED THAT EXHAUST MOVED FROM EXHAUST PIPE TO CAR TRUNK TO CAR CABIN.

PURCHASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW & THE AIR CONDITIONING QUIT WORKING THE FIRST SUMMER I OWNED IT. WHILE UNDER WARRANTY, TOOK CAR TO FAMILY FORD AND THEY PUT FREON IN IT BUT IT LEAKED OUT, THEY REPLACED THE COMPRESSOR, PROBLEM PERSISTED. NEXT FOUND THAT THE COMPRESSOR WAS IMPROPERLY INSTALLED & THAT WAS REPAIRED. NOW WARRANTY IS EXPIRED & DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS THE COMPRESSOR & TOLD ME TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE REPAIRS. CAR HAS 16,000 MILES, GARAGE KEPT, AND HAS NEVER HAD WORKING AC.
MY CAR'S A/C BROKE DOWN WHILE DRIVING EARLY JULY OF THIS YEAR. IT TOOK FOUR VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP TO IDENTIFY THAT THE EVAPORATOR CORE WAS THE ISSUE. BEFORE THIS, THE SCHRADER VALVES, CONDENSER AND ASSOCIATED PARTS WERE REPLACED.

JUST PICKED MY CAR UP FROM DEALERSHIP, DUE TO A BATTERY ISSUE THAT I PREVIOUSLY POSTED ABOUT, AND MY DRIVER SIDE VENTS ARE BLOWING WARM AIR.

I WILL NOW HAVE TO BRING MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HOPE THAT THEY CAN GET AROUND TO DIAGNOSING IT IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HAVE NOT BEEN RECALLS REGARDING THESE ISSUES, WHEN FORD IS OBVIOUSLY SELLING DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS. MY CAR HAS 30,400 MILES TOMORROW WILL MAKE THE 5TH TIME IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP OVER THE PAST YEAR. INVESTIGATION INTO THESE CARS ARE OBVIOUSLY WARRANTED.
