2011 V6 Mustang-Hesitation
richardzuccaro, Roslyn, NY, 01/14/2011
2011 Ford Mustang V6 2dr Coupe (3.7L 6cyl 6M)
Overall my 2011 V6 Mustang with automatic transmission is a really fine car EXCEPT for the 1-2 second hesitation when trying to accelerate suddenly for passing or entering a highway. The dealer claims its probably only a half-second delay but I confirmed again its close to 2 seconds. At age 61
I am not drag racing. This hesitation has
been quite dangerous several times( praise the Lord … for his protection)before accelerating like
my first new muscle car, a 1969 GTO. I was a part-time auto mechanic in '69-70 and will research the possible cause since the Ford dealer has failed me.
1st Mustang & we love it !!

2011 Ford Mustang V6 2dr Coupe (3.7L 6cyl 6M)
We have had this car for 16 months & can report no problems at all. Tranny has been good.
Sure footed & fun to drive. We usually get 30 mph on highway & the expected 20 mph city.
That highway mph was a selling point for us and is pretty incredible.
We are keeping close watch on the transmission since we have heard of others with problems but we don't take it to high rpms or shift … harshly. We did rent an automatic for 1 wk & highly recommend the manual 6sp. Front seats fit my 6 ft frame very well. One funny note: we are in our 50s & quite regularly come across kids who want to race us. Can't do but would like to get in on a track to see what it can really do. Overall we are very pleased.
Great Fun & Value

2011 Ford Mustang V6 2dr Coupe (3.7L 6cyl 6M)
We are in our 50s & have had this car 7 mos and can't be more pleased.
In the past we have had Japanese vehicles.
This time we decided to find an American car that wouldn't be so practical as an SUV or basic sedan. The power & handling of this car is outstanding. The acceleration is so smooth.
The overall feel of quality has been a surprise since the test drive. Gas mileage was a big … surprise at 29-32 mpg on the highway.
We love the manual 6speed tranny. A month ago we rented the automatic for a week & came away knowing the manual trans was best for us. Much more fun.
The automatic did not shift exactly when needed.
It's still a good car but the manual rocks. No problems so far.
Quick little car

2011 Ford Mustang V6 2dr Coupe (3.7L 6cyl 6M)
I have had this car 5 years and1 month. For the first 5 years I had perfect service from this car. At 5 years 1 month the traction control came on by itself [on a clear, dry, straight, stretch of road] and cut the fuel and made steering very hard. This is very dangerous, if someone is following you and you lose power it would be easy to get hit from behind. Ford dealership tried to sell … me a steering box, even I knew this wasn't the problem. After much research I found this is a common problem that ford has not really addressed. I have taken it to other places that say it could be a sensor or any number of things. I really enjoy the car, and have decided to keep it for awhile longer to see if this happens again. With only 52,000 I don't think it should be giving problems. Overall it's been a good car.
