25C43 Water Intrusion Recall

[D/\rK•650]

My dealer is telling me they cannot provide courtesy a car to my while its being fixed. But they provide one for warranty work? They seem very confused. Its my daily driver, have to have a car since they are keeping it a couple days minimum.

Couple days minimum? Just for the recall? Dude mine was done in like 5 6 hours...maybe try a different dealership..

AGREE! Strongly agree!! I live about an hour from my dealer, so I waited for mine (nice waiting area, plus by being there they took me into the service bay so I could see the work while the cowl was off and the sealant was curing/drying). Complete process took about 5 hours start to completion.

Here in Germany we have THIS at the place where the sealing should be- u know what this is?

Pedestrian protection when you hit a person this goes off and tilts the good upwards to Brake the impact

We Found a much cleaner solution for this problem. For the moment negotiating with Ford dealer because after 22 years in the business and have full Acces to OEM software etc. I don't like this Ugly fix. The only thing i want is they remove the recall message. Will post foto's when it's done!

So.......if they pry up your windshield and it doesn't crack but a few weeks down the road it does.....who's fault?

Not trying to be a smartass but I think we know.

Perhaps if you live in the south!
Lets be honest here, probably not if you live anywhere where it snows... typically northern buyers aren't looking for sports cars until spring. Their resale values are not strong during the coldest winter months, especially in the northern states.

I live where it snows and bought my Dark Horse HP over Christmas 2023.

You also bought a highly desirable new Dark Horse HP that had just came out for model year 2024 that people were willing to pay well over MSRP for in December 2023...

Comparing apples to oranges.

It would be best for OP to wait for spring for a wider buyer pool looking for a fun car since the weather is starting to warm up and their pockets are full of tax refunds.

So my Mustang has had the repair done and was tested for leaking. It is still leaking after repair with no fix available at this time. They have the car and are waiting on ford to guide them. My bcm is all corded as well from the leak. Has anyone else had anything similar happen? I guess at least I have a rental but not a Mustang. This is crazy it’s going on week two.

you’re the second one I’ve heard of who actually had a leak. Did you have any symptoms? Do you mind sharing the build date of your mustang?
