RE: list your problems with your '05
I have noticed once in awhile there is a "popping" sound from the front somewhere. I just saw some info about a TSB on the strut towers so it may be that. I haven't had time to investigate that yet.

RE: list your problems with your '05
small dent in the passenger side rear quarter panel....
now seriously, my car was built on 09/2004 and I got it on 10/31/04. After 10,500 miles the only issue I had was the missing bolts in the heatshield. Other than that it has been a blast until my wife had the wreck. The car is in the shop right now. No idea when it's going to be done.

RE: list your problems with your '05
Skipper 1000 replaced 3 times
Fuel tank not filling at certain stations, dealer says no problem with tank even when shown tsb.
Dealer vendor ripped up leather in driver seat while replacing radio, twice.
car will sometimes sputter 3% of the time, on downshift and flooring it, it thinks for a while, asks if it something I NEED to do, then decides to go... Dealer said this is normal [:@]
I said, then the problem is worse than I thought, My "normal" sputter is missing 97% of the time then
they have nothing to say to that

There is a rattle in the back when I go over rough road. It also hesitates when I romp on it. Not all the time, but enough that it is something I have to consider when I get on the throttle.

RE: list your problems with your '05
I experience these problems:
FRONT SUSPENSION POPPING NOISE WHILE TURNING RIGHT OR LEFT - usually from a stand still
FUEL FILL SLOW, OR DIFFICULT TO FILL - 50% of the time
CD PLAYER SKIPPING - 10% of the time
KEYLESS ENTRY - remote works intermittently (sometimes I have to resort to using the key! OMG, the key!)
When I get my secondary vehicle street legal again, I'll take stang in for some help on thes issues.

RE: list your problems with your '05
I noticed this weekend that my rear bumper molding seems to be ill-fitted. I'm going to have to get that looked at. It's not an immediately noticeable thing unless you know what to look for. And of course, now I know and can't help looking at it!! [:-]

RE: list your problems with your '05
I have noise coming from rear passenger side when I hit bumps.
I have noise coming from front passenger side at speeds of 70-80mph.
I have noise coming from dashboard above 40mph.
I have noise coming from under hood when car is on.
Rear bumper molding problem.
My windows like to go back down after they start going up, or go up after going down.
My dealership service department is a pain in the a$$.

RE: list your problems with your '05
Fuel Tank Issue -- Fixed
Popping/clicking sound from Engine (NOT STRUT) - Have no idea what it is. I thought at first it was the A/C but it does it when the A/C is off.
Brake Fluid Resivoir is starting to get dirt build up aroud the seam. I think I need to take it to get looked at.
Not the Skipper, but the Regular Radio skips when playing tracks 17+ on any CD.
