Well guys after being away for a little while because of work I am back with more issues out of my 2010 Mustang GT... I have already had the transmission replaced a couple times in the Mustang because the clutch engagement point was moving so far back I couldn't even get it into gear from a stand still. Since my last transmission reconstruction those problems have gone away. However, I've had a couple more problems come up...

For a couple months the car has been pushing it self out of forth gear when I am just coasting (no pressure on gas) between 1k and 3k... It will just randomly pop out. Any ideas why this is happening?

Also yesterday I turned on my car and the low brake fluid light came on and advanced trac control light came on and in the information center said both these systems needed to be serviced. The both came on at the exact same time when I started the car. I checked the brake fluid and it is at the right level. I drove it around town because I needed to do some small things and everything seems to be driving fine.

I'm bringing it to Ford tomorrow, but should I expect some long fix or big bill for this stuff? Any ideas what is causing any of these issues?

I hope you don't see any bills for this stuff.....lol that car has to be less than 2 years old. I don't know exactly why it's doing what it is, but I'd take it in and make sure they fixed everything on their tab although i don't think that should be in question at all since the car is so new.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get these dumb issues taken care of!

You shouldn't see any bill for any of that stuff. warranty will cover it.

On another note, I can't help but think that if this was a 2011 this thread would be full of people trashing everything about it.

Lax07

Yeah hopefully warranty will cover this... Don't really understand the second part of this comment, but I guess that's what I get for being away for several months...

Yeah dude definitely bring it in!!! Warranty should cover everything and DO NOT accept the car back unless its 100% to your liking and how it should be working. I have read about dealers giving cars back without 100% fixing the issue hoping the customer would just live with it. Its a brand new car man this shouldnt be happening.

The 2011 has been getting a lot of heat from members of the 05-10 persuasion because of some of the issues that are really infrequent, but are severe if they happen. And of course the tranny issues that are pretty widespread are a popular hot topic too.

My TR3650 was replaced under warranty at around 14000 miles. One day, it just started making grinding noise on the way to work. I don't think these units like to be power shifted or shifted aggressively. I've babied her ever since. I'm really afraid of it.

Slipping out of gear when not under load usually is attributed to your syncro rings. They wear out if your doing a lot of speed shifting or missing gears

crescent_wrench,

I don't want you to drive in fear! Are there any ongoing issues, or are you just worried due to your past issue with the grinding? Please let me know if I can help in any way.
