What owners wrote
The contact owned a 2015 Ford Mustang. The contact stated that while her son was driving approximately 30 MPH, as he tried to slow while following the road steering to the left, the vehicle's brakes failed. The vehicle left the roadway spun several times and crashed into a tree. The roadway surface was not dry, the contact's son said that the conditions had been misty. The driver's side door was crushed and the entire side panel to the rear wheel was crushed by the impact.
For the past three years. When I go to work. Everything is fine. When I leave work. I back the car up about 15-30 feet. Then pull out of the parking lot. When I pull out. As I press the gas & start going faster. The car stalls, jerks as if the breaks are pushed, then starts driving as normal again. It happens all the time. But my ford place says it has to do it with them driving for them to know what to do or what the issue is. Then this past week. The same thing happened.
