| The 2005 mustang windshield glass seems to be much softer than others on the market. with only a few thousand miles on the car i started noticing quite a few very small (pin size) chips in the glass. now after 17k miles there are thousands of these little chips. this windshield looks worse than my old pickup that had over 250k miles. i have spoken to several other 05 owners in the forums and have found that they too are experiencing something similar to this issue with their vehicle. the dealer stated that it too seemed to be an excessive amount of chips when looking at the general condition of the rest of the vehicle. a few minor chips on the front fascia and hood are all that there is up front. no gravel roads in my area, not much construction either. my habits when driving are to avoid large vehicles and stay in the other lanes when behind one.*jb | |||

| First thing that happened with my car was the two inches of water it started taking in every time it rains. then the rpm gauge and speedometer went; never can tell how fast i am going (real safe). next went the gas and temp gauges. now it rained again a few days ago (12/2012) and i have no working locks, windows, radio or headlights along with water in my floorboard. ford needs to fix these problems that the 2005 mustang has with it. these are not safe driving conditions and it looks like i am not the only one with these problems. i will not pay $3000 to fix their mistake. i will spend that money on a lawyer against ford before i pay for their mistake. they need to do a recall and fix this. i had to get my car towed last night because i had no headlights. the tow truck driver said that my car was the fourth mustang he had to tow that night!!! | |||
