Quality / Fit / Finish - What are you taking your car back to the dealer for?
I always throw a small note book in my car when I first pick one up new. This way I just write the things I want fixed while I drive it for a while.
This way - - I get everything fixed in one trip rather then makeing a bunch of trips and always forgetting something.
Here is what is in my book at 800 miles.
=============
Passenger Rear Window
- - Off track and miss-aligned when UP.
Drivers Window:
- - Seal gets scrunched in forward top section – no fitting like passenger side.
Passenger side Roof Latch:
- - Miss-Alignment and very hard latching.
Air Conditioner:
- - AC won’t cool car when temp above 95 degrees. Works OK when cooler – my BMW Convertible would cool the car at any temp to the point you had to adjust the AC Controls warmer.
Fog Lights:
- - Fog lights have something in/on them that leaves then “foggy/smokey” looking. Not this way on other mustangs so something is wrong.
Convertible Top:
- - Squeaks like a Hamster Wheel when on slightly bumpy roads.
======================
Not too bad. Nothing that affects driveability or is critical.
I have picked up worse cars...My 94 Corvette had like 25 things in the book by 1000 miles - many of which were never fixed during the 2 years I kept it, and multiple trips to the dealershiip. (Why I got rid of it!)
So.... What things did your cars have you wanted fixed?

So far, I have complaints and no fixes. I must be one of the lucky ones. I have over 3400 miles on mine already and will be putting another 1500 to 2000 miles in the next week when I go on vacation.

Same as 05BlueGT... over 4000 miles and I don't have any glitches that need to be fixed. I'm still monitoring the Shaker 500 though, TBD.
