why should we buy a car from a bankrupt company...when you order parts from GM you will get a letter saying, this part is not available because it was liquidated in the bankruptcy settlement................

Funny..the Camaro5 forum is full of Camaro owners with all kinds of complaints from trannies failing to interior parts coming off when hitting bumps. Go fix your own **** before you come here talking smack dumb-azz.

My 2010 has no issues...well, it gets old getting compliments where ever I drive it to when I am trying to get places and have to stop to answer all the questions about how nice my car is.

I was chasing down a rattle in mine for a few days as well, before I discovered that it was the socket key for the locking wheels bouncing around in the glovebox. I found it surprising that the glovebox isn't padded the way the center console is. Oh well...

with the new panels for the console there will be a whole new bunch of rattles, which should take a long time for Ford to correct. They had so many problems with the 2005 that they changed the design for the 2010.
The good news is that they will usually try something to fix it, so just keep taking your new Mustang back until they get it done right.

The only rattles I have had are the things I have chosen to put into either the center console or the door pockets. This is the quietest Mustang I have ever owned.

You guys are aware that GM has emerged from Bankruptcy already, right? I mean, they have this thing called the news. Just sayin'

Anyway....Camaro guy ^^^ is banned.

Will the trolls ever give up?

Regardless..they are still a bankrupt company. I personally know people that have emerged from bankruptcy but the creditors still look at them funny because of it.

We banned him why?? Are we becoming the Camaro5 Forum now where we ban those who don't subscribe to our way of thinking? We have lots of 2010 haters on this forum that are S197 owners as well....should we start banning them?

He was like a cat surrounded by starving pitbulls....and you took away our meal.....

I drove to Florida this weekend and heard what sounded like paper flapping in the wind when I hit about 80. It sounded like it was coming from the back of the car. I did find some pine needles in the area around the trunk. I took them out and I didn't hear the noise on the way back, but I can't believe pine needles were that loud. I also poked at the mat attached to the underside of the trunk lid. I'm not sure how tight the seal is, but is it possible that the wind gets into the trunk and makes that mat flap?
