Pretty confident the loose hardware causing the OP to complain requires a lengthy and delicate surgery to correct.

From reading the list of woes he has had and his obvious like for Honda cars I believe the jingling sounds are loose screws in the cranium.

My car seems to have a deafening roar emitting from the tail pipes. Can't seem to figure out why. It seems to be loudest with the windows down and with accelerator pedal pressed to the floor. Blipping the throttle on deceleration makes it burble aggressively. Furthermore, I believe the accelerator pedal is somehow transmitting PANIC to other cars because whenever I rev it seems to set some off.

Compiled a few links from the OPs callout thread on SVTP. I definitely wouldn't send this guy my VIN like he requested in his extensive "shimmy" threads all over the internet.

I got a PM from him on SVTP, don't think you'll get any replies from him:

I am sorry to say I will not be replying to any of these threads you are involved in as frankly I am a little creeped out by all this stalking that you are doing.

I have asked an admin to delete the threads on this forum and the others as you have taken things too far.

As for the shimmy I am indeed in contact with 15 other people experiencing the same exact issue so I am not THAT crazy, but I do admit I am very **** about my cars as I work very hard for my money.

I am sorry if my ranting upset you so much, I will not be posting anymore on any mustang forum going forward.

I suppose one mans stalker is another's advocate.

I wouldn't want this guy representing my interests or VIN to Ford knowing his history of the same complaint on so many different vehicles.
