Default FRONT SUSPENSION NOISE WARNING!

Anyone who owns a coupe or is considering purchasing a Mustang, please read this thread first!
You could be sorry you baught one or will be. Many of us are very frustrated regarding Ford's refusal to address and correct noisy front suspension problems caused by faulty parts.
Please read this thread!

If there's such a problem, why are you dumping money into mods for the car?

The Mustang looks great but it rattles and THUNKS! That's how it's related.
Others have tried the Tokico's and the thunk is still there!

Xsqueeze me?
I'm not 'dumping' money into anything.
I 'made' a few mods months ago.
At any rate Ford had promised to release the TSB for the front suspension problem by mid-April of this year. Then they pushed it up until mid-May. Now they've pushed it up to June!
I haven't and won't blow money on front end work because I already paid for a good front end that doesn't THUNK!
There are hundreds to thousands of us suffering this unnecessary problem brought on by cheap *** parts that Ford charges a premium price for.

Mine went thunk and Ford put some shackles or something on the struts. Then it went squeek and Ford put in a new steering rack. I put in my own strut towerbrace. Then it went clunk and Ford tightened the sway bar.Ford alsoput ina new gas tank so I can accually fill it up most of the time on the first try. My dealership has bent over backwards (free rentals, tanks of gas, kiss, kiss) for me. Too bad Future Ford didn't build the thing in the first place.
