| 3000 mi | Tank overflowed while filling it (2nd time!) and it triggered the check engine soon light. It threw code #P0451 for evaporative system malfunction. 05-09 Mustangs have had similar problems as the automatic shut-off doesn't always work. |
| 10000 mi | Car was not running well; seemed to want to stall out after stopping at red lights, etc. After a few days the "wrench light" on the control panel came on. Throttle control module replaced and all is well. |

Car hesistated upon start. Fuel system cleaned |
| 93 mi | Car did not start. The instrument panel was faulty (not communicating) and replaced. Dealer replaced free of charge by taking the part from an other new car to avoid downtime (ford stock was empty; 10-15 day delivery time) |
| 12400 mi | I brought the car in to fix a rattle coming from the dashboard area at 1200 to 1700rpm while the engine is under load. The root cause was a loose fuel line clip. Fixing the clip solved the problem. |

| 4000 mi | Fuel pump replacement. Car stalling out at random times. |
| 12000 mi | replace vacuum module |
| 3000 mi | Belt chirp on startup (intermittent) along with bearing sound during running. I was told they heard nothing, that I was "over protective" of car, and they miswrote the work order. I believe idler pulley has faulty bearing. Time will tell. |
