How often is your car in for service?

hotshot · 10-07-2006

I have been scowering this forum and all i have been reading lately is about people with brand new 06-07 mustangs that constantly have to take their vehicles in for service. Is this just me? or does your car have a lot of downtime?

Once to have a TSB taken care of, clutch packs.

14,000 miles in 10 months with below mods. Never been to the dealership. Only problem I've had is the thumping noise from the right front passenger side when going over bumps. When I replaced my struts/springs it went away.

I own a 2005 gt and it has been back to the dealership for a factory recall once for front strut bushings . It has 25K miles on it . It has Steeda CAI , underdrive pulleys ,and an XCT tune .This car has far exceeded my expectations .

10 months - 4,400 miles - no service/warranty issues - getting ready for 1st oil change (sometime later this month).

31k miles...only in once (last month) for fuel filling TSB. Not really a problem, but it was more of a nuisance. Had the car back in 2 hours. Fills up just fine now.

1.5 years 16,000 miles. Never seen a Ford dealer. +600 HP through a blower and built motor and still holding strong...

I may take it in and ask if I can get new paint under warranty as I have ~15 small spots all the way through the clear and paint. Not normal if you ask me.

I may have a small filling problem but that's 1 outa 10 fill ups and only some stations and pumps...??

I blew one of the stock mufflers but that's mod/power related I'm sure...

Tranny has the grinding noise but that's Tremec for you...

That's it, all else is and have been working great!!

My '06 GT visits the Ford dealer every 3000 miles for oil changes. It has 8085 miles...and I tell 'em to stay away from the OBD port!

06 V-6 Vert 12k miles, 5 oil changes

06 V-6 4k auto traded for 06 GT Manual 4k , 6 oil changes (3 each)

None of the 3 have been to dealer except for oil changes.

Only 1 problem with car cut out after long drive then on acceleration cut out. Found tsb about replacing the fuel pump. Fixed the problem otherwise oil changes only. Best car I have every had and I have had a lot of cars and trucks. LOL

I've been back to the dealer about 10 times in 18 months...
First for a leaky back window(which turned out to be the weld seam had no filller in it),engine ticking, Alarm system would not let me start the car with the key. All of these things were multiple bring backs tooo the dealer...Finally after 18 months all is good, I even toook it on vacation with me and it drove great!!!!!!!!!!!!
