Went on a trip for a week and left my radio on then turned off my car . My battery died, then i took her in and they said i had a bad battery from ford and replaced it.
The radio will still power off when you remove the ignition key & open the door. However I had a flat battery once & then one day noticed my Shaker 500 didn't power off as it should - mystery solved.

Thinking about taking mine back simply because it has this one little problem..........it isn't a Shelby GT 500.

Took it in for LOF and mentioned the TSB for the "buzz in the console" generated by some exhaut configuration, supposed to be cured by adding a circular clamp under there somewhere. When I picked it up the tech said it wasn't the TSB-clamp problem, that the exhaust system was mis-aligned, and he fixed it under warranty.

No other problems, just turned 18,000 miles. I got it when it had about 14,000 - as a Budget Rent-a-car.

A budget rent-a-car? Man, I beat the SNOT out of two of those before I got my GT vert.. LOL

I've had mine in so far only for the fuel pump TSB.

Well, that, and regular maintenance (tire rotation, oil change, etc etc).

My 05 gt--in for rear end whine-fixed, bad battery--replaced, awful dash rattle--fixed. Not taken in for yet--thunking noise seems to be some where towards the back of the car. And ticking in the engine at idle--I was told this is normal, I'm not happy with this. My wife's 06 pony package--fuel pump repaced--and it has the same thunking coming from underneath some where. This is all so far but way too much already. I saw a commercial on tv where the mustang was rated highest in customer satisfaction among all sportscars--wow what a joke!!!

went twice to the dealership because of gas tank problem.
also had to replace the convertible top because when I opened the door, the corner kept scratching and eventually made a small cut on the top.
