Anybody out there with NO problems?
#1
There's been so many threads about problems with the '05's.....windows, rear axle, tire issues, engine overheating, stereos, transmissions, worn cloth interiors. gas mileage issues.
Who out there has a 05' with absolutely no issues! Does anybody?? Or is everybody getting lemons?

Just looked up the 2000 numbers. Average was 55 problems per 100 vehicles. Ford was 56, BMW was 54. Nissan 40, Mazda 34, Honda 32, Toyota/Lexus 25. Acura was best at 21. Audi 64. Mercedes 73. VW 74. Chevy 69.

I just read a post about rust on the pulleys.....ALREADY? Don't get me wrong I ordered a GT already and I'll stick with my order, but the line "Best deal for the buck" seems like a little stretching of the truth. I've never bought a ford, got a GMC SIERRA and an old 82 Caravelle, and rust never hit those babies till late, even in the undercarriage.

My main issues about been around the check engine light. It seems to randomly come on. The dealer seems to be randomly replacing parts to try to fix it. First the gas tank and now a filter in the evaporative emmissions system.
It runs great though. If the light wasn't on I wouldn't know that there was a problem.

Tyson, keep in mind that people who aren't having problems don't pop into the forum and start threads that say "Just thought I let everyone know I'm not having any problems". But when someone does have a problem, they'll post here asking about it. That's why it seem worse than it problably actually is. You see far more problem threads than no problems threads (if you see any at all).
