Default Top Mustang Problems

GTRaptor created a really nice survey of what areas of the Mustang have been identified as having problems. I'd like to see this taken a few steps further. It's hard to identify what the specific problems are with GTRaptor's survey, so I would suggest a more precise and definitive summary as follows:
  • Identify the Top (5) Areas of the new Mustang that seem to be experiencing problems; from the most reported to the least reported.
  • Identify what exactly the problems are (i.e., complaints, symptoms, etc.)
  • Identify what the Dealer fixes have been so far to date.
  • If we're really feeling ambitious, identify what the mileage is on these cars when the problems first surfaced
I would put this together, but I have no computer website skills. A more specific summary will help Ford address the most common problems quicker as well as help car owners identify if they have one of these problems or perhaps a different problem.

It is possible that there could be either some engineering or manufacturing defects, but that's to be expected on any mass-produced first year production car. Hopefully, many of the areas being identified by many are isolated problems and not representative of most cars.

With this research and new summary, Ford will be hard pressed to ignore it. Thanks.
