What owners wrote
Rough or rolling idle. Vehicle stalls at stops or when clutch is depressed for gear-down in curves or turns. Loss of steering/braking control has resulted in repeated occurrences of travel left of center. Manufacturer has no diagnosis for concern. PCM re-program attempts are short-term "fix". Problem recurs.
Plastic intake manifold on my 2000 ford mustang gt cracked and was leaking coolant. Part was replaced by sanderson ford in glendale az on august 3, 2007 at a cost of $1406.01. There was a class action lawsuit against ford in regards to these defective manifolds but I am outside of the period of which it was in force, but I feel that period was too short as my vehicle was purchased on november 18, 1999 and I am the original owner.
