Hello! Ford shelby gt 350's have a fatal engine flaw that will lead to the death of many owners. There is a known issue where the oil filter simply falls off the engine because the engine is prone to a ton of vibration. As a result, oil is spilled everywhere and can result in the loss of control of the vehicle due to oil hitting the tires. This has happened to me twice now, thankfully the first time I noticed it while in the garage and thus there was no risk while driving.
The contact owns a 2017 Ford Mustang. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle was stalling with the powertrain malfunction light illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle would no longer accelerate while depressing the accelerator pedal. The vehicle had not lost motive power but was inoperable. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced because there was no transmission fluid in the transmission.
