Cool Hello Everyone

Hello everyone my name is Rick and I drive a 2015 Mustang GT Premium that I recently purchased. I found this site while researching some brake issues on my new car. I look forward to getting to know everyone and checking out some nice stangs.

Hello Rick! Welcome to TMS. What brake issues are you having? The company I work for just did a job for FedEx in Corpus Christi

Thanks Glenn, I am having problems with the e brake sticking once it's been disengaged, making an ugly popping sound, then it squeals everytime I come to a slow stop. Getting attention for the wrong reasons.

Hi there, Rick! Have you found the topic about your brake squeal? It's a known problem, and there's a Technical Service Bulletin for it.
Search "2015 brake squeal" and the thread is titled "2015 Gt premium squealing front brakes". That's the good news; the bad news is that I had mine repaired, per the TSB, and it's still happening... Good luck to you!

Thanks yes I did find the bulletin. We're yours replaced with the brembos? The rear rotors look like crazy also.. I think the system they put in blows. My front brakes say ACCESS on them which is something I hadn't seen. I do have a service appointment on Tuesday, I'm hoping they put the Brembos from what I understand they work for everyone that had them installed afterwards.

The TSB just covered the replacement of the pads and rotors, not the calipers. I could be wrong, but the Brembo calipers and rotors only came on the track package. So, unless we want to change our calipers and rotors out, we have to work with what we've got. Although, I have a feeling buying some EBC front pads would completely cure the problem...

Welcome from a fellow new member. After poking around for a few minutes, I can tell this is going to be a great resource.

Don't be too sure. There are a lot of psychopaths here. Even Ted Bundy seemed nice at first.

Welcome aboard....and post pics!!!!

Hey guys Not sure if I should post this question anywhere else on the page but here we go.. Has anyone had or experienced a bog down when running in sport mode?? Its as if the car cuts off just for a split second or so. I thought it was odd. It has happened twice since I have had the car, and both times it happened when I was getting on it.. and between 1st and second then between second and third gears.. I have driven many mustangs in the past but never experienced this.

I did not receive any indication when it happened. I am wondering if this is a common issue..

Hey rcarrilloGTP,
I'm new to forums too, trying to figure out how to navigate this thing.


What you driving? Got pics?

Any chance you were on it hard enough for the Advance Trac/Traction control to kick in? Mine will kill power abruptly if it thinks I'm on it too hard, especially accelerating out of a turn.
