What owners wrote
Takata my car has different manufacturing issues including the convertible roofing it does openly by itself, I got scared and chocked the first time it happened, also the transmission seemed to sent a lower speed to the motor. Airbag didn't explode in a crash. Driving is when it happens.
My 2012 ford mustang has runaway corrosion around the underside of the hood. This corrosion will affect the hood crumple areas in a crash.
