Ford Dealerships

[NJfordtech]

I work for a Ford Dealer in NJ.
I have been reading this site for a couple of weeks now I hava an 06 on order should have by august.
I understand how many members may be upset about the quality of their stangs.
1st dealerships are not going to just replace items like transmissions due to noise. The trans in the stang is inhertenly noisey anyway. The front end noises were an engineering flaw. As is the radio.
Give your Service department some slack and remember they are working or not working on your car. Your car can easily be put on the end of the pile.
I have driven many new mustangs and the car is a lot nicer than the model it replaces this car is not a lincoln it is going to be a little raw.

Hi NJFORDTECH:
I really value you being on this forum and am hoping you can give me some info from a tech's point of view. In your or your co-workers experiance, what is causing the clunking/rattle in the front end. Would installing spring isolaters cure this problem or is there another cause. The popping noise really does not bother me that much as it does not occur that often, but the clunking is driving me nuts. I would fix it myself or pay someone to do it if I could just find out what the problem is. You guys and gals have tough job trouble shooting problems, even more so on a new model year and I would greatly appreciate any advice you can give me.

There is a TSB for this already, take it to your dealership and they will fix it.
