Clutch failure on my 2009 Ford Mustang GT500 - at 18,000 miles the clutch began to slip while in heavy traffic. I took the car to M purchasing dealer and requested a diagnostic, they indeed confirmed that the car exhibited the problem but informed me that it was a wear item with only a 12 ms/12K warranty. Ford has issued a tsb on the clutch and its flywheel indicating that heavy stop and go traffic will warp the flywheel and in turn ruin the clutch and transmission. Ford did nothing to fix the problem (identified in the tsb, NHTSA 10032615 - tsb-09-19-11).

I have a Ford Mustang 2009 V-6, I was in 2nd gear accelerating to pass someone, and gas pedal stuck to floor, could not do anything, put it in neutral, still did it. I finally turned engine off and everything was ok. Scared me, I am afraid to drive the car. Call dealership, says it does not know why.
