Talking I must say thanks to my wife

I want to public ally give thanks to my awesome wife. I recently purchased a 2011 5.0 Nov 27 and it has been in the shop since Nov 29 for the transmission issue sticky shifts, not going into reverse. I was finally told today my car was fixed when I went to pick it up I barely got down the highway and the engine light caame on, turns out that the wiring harness is bad. My wife went off on the dealership and after threatening legal representation the dealers is going to give us a brand new mustang. Now the one I bought had 5000 miles on it they are going to swap out at no cost to us a brand new one. When I get it hopefully tomorrow I will let you know the color I am hoping to get is the Mona blue if not then black. Just to let you know replacing the bolts on the pressure plate and a new flywheel resolves the issue with the shifting.

the guy jumped the clutch and i was standing in front of the car looking at the engine...luckily i jumped out of the way only getting hit in my legs and flipped a little before he ran the GT premium into the back of a ford super duty!...fun day let me tell you.

They call them stealerships on here for a reason.

If I bought a used car under warranty still and they wont replace the tranny Id demand Ford give me a new car or the $$$ I put down and what the car is worth.

I get tired of reading so many stories on here how people get screwed over. It's all car makers.
