Well, I have had my stang for about a year now, and these problems are beginning to get on my nerves...

1. I don't have a trunk opening button in my car. I only have my key chain one.

2. When at the gas station, instead of the problem that a lot of people here seem to be having, the pumps always react like my car is full and won't spray the fuel. I try fooling with the pump, but it always happens. I usually have to look for a lucky pump that works with my car in order to fill up.

Anyone else have these problems?

Do a search there is a how-to for installing a trunk button in the stangs.
There is a TSB for the gas tank. Take it to your dealership.

yeah the not having a trunk release in the car is a problem i've locked my keys in the trunk and had to wait for someone to bring me my spare. i found that if you push the gas pump all the way in it wont shut off as much but it doesnt work all the time. if its under warranty its better just to take it in to get fixed. i have to take mine in in the next couple of days for that and a couple other things too

Don't the seats in the verts fold down in the back like the coupes do? If so you could have gotten to your keys that way.

Wire your own trunk release button. It's easy and works like a charm. Here's a link, best directions are at the end.

Pretty sure there's no way that those seat will be able to fold down till we get IRS. Till then, the top coming from above and the axle coming from below leave very little space in between for a pass through.
