i know there is that recall of f-150s cruise short circuiting and catching fire, but i have read the 2002 mustangs have the same problem. is this true?? i have an 02 and want to know what i can do if there is a problem.

 

I'm not sure, but mine has bout 90K on the odometer and it hasn't caught on fire yet.

 

Look in the upper tool bar here. "Recalls and TSB's". They took a lot of time setting it up. If there is a recall or TSB about it, it will be there.

 

well there are some tsb's, but i don't see one exactly to fit what i am talking about.

 

Then, it's probably not a problem. There are no recalls listed there for my 03. I went to one of my old shops and looked it up on AllData. No recalls on the 03. I would trust them here. They really busted a$$ to give us all the poop on our cars.

 

well the only reason i am sort of concerned is because on mycarstats.com like 33 people have had that problem. so i am sort of worried.

 

I wouldn't worry til it burst into flames. Then the insurance can sort it all out.

 

i don't have full coverage on it yet. so i would be screwed.

 

Ok. There is one way to find out for sure. It will cost you, but I don't know how much. Go to www.alldata.com and subscribe for your car. You will have ALL recall and TSB info just like you were a shop. It costs a lot less than shops, and the subscription will be for your year/make/model specifically. OR..go to your local library's reference section and ask them if they have TSB's in thier collection. Good luck!


EDIT....
I just checked. It's $24.95 for the first car, and $14.95 for each additional car.

 

Oh! Scratch my previous statement til you get the full coverage. Until then, call Ford, maybe they could help you out. I would think you would have gotten a letter bout it though.
