 I purchased a 2010 ford mustang v6 coupe and have had several transmission issues. the hydrolic clutch has been replaced, the slave cylander, throttle body unit, and thermostat have been replaced. my car has difficulty shifting from 1st to 2nd gear, and reverse. i have to coast the car and re-engage the clutch while shifting back and forth to get it into reserve. my transmission sounds like its grinding and the shifter makes a knocking noise. when shifting the car likes to jump foward. my shifter shakes and wants to pop out of 5th gear while on the free-way. i have been telling the ford dealership this as well as ford motor company customer service in dearborne mi. when involved the dealership says it's normal for my car and that all i can do is wait for a 'catastrophic' event to occur or i can trade in my car. i should not have to wait for something castastrophic to occur for ford to take me seriously. in addition to my current problems my tie rods, both inner and outer are bad and need replaced, i have a high pressure stearing hose leak, the housing is now leaking an needs replaced, my car is leaking coolant and my clutch is going bad again.

 I purchased a 2010 ford mustang on february 17th, 2010. on december 14th, 2010 with 12,00 miles on the car, going northbound on the highway the entire rear axle assembly went out and the car had to be towed to the dealership. on december 22nd, 2010 the car was returned to me with the replaced rear axle assembly. on december 27th, 2010 the newly replaced rear axle assembly again went out leaving me stranded on the same highway a few yards shy of the previous breakdown. the engineers are stating that the rear end carrier and axles are seizing in the housing.
