Few TSB's but nothing major.

Just the damn gas tank TSB that no one knows how to fix. [:@]

At 900 miles last october, the e-brake, abs and tsc light were on. Took it in and they replaced a part not working from the factory. That was it. Mine has been a reliable stang.

Just saw you asked for 05 only. Mine is an 06.

Only two issues.
1, the fuel filling issue, which I just deal with.
I've found pumps that work for me, so I just use those.

2, the door handles not retracting all the way.
Waited until both had the problem, had them fixed under warranty.
