Ford Motor Company is recalling certain model year 2016 Ford Mustang vehicles manufactured September 26, 2015, to October 1, 2015. The front and rear seat belts and child seat tether anchors may have been damaged in shipping from the supplier to the vehicle assembly plant and may not adequately restrain the occupant in a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 208, "Occupant Crash Protection, " and 225, "Child restraint anchorage systems." Cust vehicle was built May 2016 but also has the same issues the sealtbelts are rusting and cant be used any longer. Customers havent been able to drive veh for 2 months due to this issue.

The driver and passenger seatbelts are unusable due to deterioration. The fabric has shredded to the point that they jam in the mechanism and do not extend far enough to be buckled. I first noticed the issue in February 2024 and have been unable to obtain parts to repair my vehicle due to backorder. I have been unable to use my vehicle safely for over three months and counting. On May 20, 2024 I elevated this issue to Ford customer service (case reference: CAS494959874) and they were unable to do anything for me.

The power went out while the engine was running, while moving steering wheel froze, ,took to have fixed and power train was damaged from repairs but told it was fixed, but the dash screen keeps going out. Now 3 recalls 2 for seatbelts, front and back, and the cooling system is being recalled for a hose or system malfunction that could cause a fire. Already had the air assembly fixed, now this latest recall. All around this is an unsafe car to drive, it only has 11,000 miles on it and it has had major defects and sever things go wrong. It's a lemon

I was involved in an incident where a deer jumped out in front of me. I swerved and my car went through a brick mailbox. My airbags took a while to come out, but when they did I was burned and blistered.
