I've HAD IT!!!

I Bought My Roush Mustang Brandy Spanking New Back In September Of 2005, And Ever Since I've Had Nothing But Trouble....so I Woke Up One Fine Morning Last Week, And You Know What I Did!?!?!? I Wrote A Nasty Letter To Ford, And Traded My Stang In For A Viper....although I Love Mustangs And The New Body Styles, I Couldn't Put Up With The Problems Anymore......i Hope No One Else Has Gone Through This Experience, And If They Have, Im Sorry To Hear It......

Why did you write a nasty gram to Ford? If you bought a genuine Rousch then your complaint should have been directed toward them not Ford. Rousch is who messed up your Mustang when they converted it.

just my 2 cents.

You can say that again. Hope your Viper isn't a car that was from the mid 90's. Terrible quality, and from everyone I have talked to who owned one, they hated it.

Hi Guys,

Roush only warranties what they modify. If we knew what the issues were maybe we would know. He has a Stage 1 so they really didn't do much to the car. The only posted problems were 1 "clicking engine" 2 "cold natured engine" and 3 "rattling speakers". None of these problems have anything to do with Roush.

I've only met one person with a first gen Viper and he loves it.

The more ANYONE mods major mechanical components on these cars after they leave Ford (including Roush), the greater the likelihood of problems developing.

Same really holds true for any car.

The real question is, was it the car itself or the service you received?

Mustangs and Vipers are different. In fact, one is a Mammal and the Other is a Reptile. If you traded it in for a Bronco, Rabbit, or John Deere, that would have Been Acceptable.

I'm sure the CEO of Ford read your letter and wept a Single tear.
