Thumbs down

Dealer called today and FORD has a fix for the popping noise in the front end. He said he had to order a part, and will call me next week for the fix.

Here are the details...

TSB
05-9-11 FRONT SUSPENSION POPPING NOISE WHILE TURNING RIGHT OR LEFT - VEHICLES BUILT BEFORE 4/8/2005

Publication Date: April 27, 2005

FORD: 2005 Mustang


ISSUE:
Some 2005 Mustang vehicles built before 4/8/2005 may exhibit an intermittent popping noise from the front of the vehicle while turning left or right. The noise will typically occur during low speed maneuvers and may occur multiple times while turning.

ACTION:
On both sides of the vehicle, install a revised upper strut bearing assembly. If the vehicle was built before February, 2005 it may also be necessary to install a lower spring seat isolator if one is not already present. Refer to the following Service Procedure

Is there a place to see all of the TSB's for the '05? It would make it easier to review if they were. Who knows, maybe we will discover a problem we don't know we have yet.

No I wasn't asking how to view the thread, but thanks though. Actually what I usually do when I get the the TMS site is click on the "FORUM" link then straight to the "View new posts" instead of looking at the forum lists where the sticky's are. I guess I should look at the lists every now and then.

Thanks again.
