1, 3, 4 ::::: IDK the firing order or what the numbering order is....but.....

Anyone think to check the O2 sensors? I had an O2 sensor fail and it was causing tons of issues on my 2012GT. I'd look into that. I was getting misfire codes and Driverside U/S O2 high voltage codes. Dealer refused to fix it, so I did it myself in the ally behind my house. Works fine and no more codes.

I too have had misfire issues. After spending a month at the dealership, I hope mine is fixed. Field service engineers came down to my dealership to work on my car. They changed out all of my spark plugs and so far I have not had a misfire, but I just picked the car up this afternoon. Hopefully I won't have any more problems. I will keep you guys posted on this. In the past year, I have had my computer reflashed, a coil, and a plug replaced. Car had been running flawless till just a few months ago. I currently have 36,400 miles. Been perfect for most of those miles. I don't know what happened, but I'm glad they fixed it under warranty.

Purchased a 2013 GT in January, it is back at the dealer again for the 3rd time (10 days total) for cylinders 4 and 8 misfiring at low idle. Car has about 1300 miles on it, mostly highway as I average over 300 a week back and forth to work. Service department is waiting on Ford to get with them now. I am now looking at the Lemon laws, which state if they can't fix it after 3 tries I have to send a letter to Ford and give them one more chance to fix it.
