Andrea, Help! I'm having the same issue. the problem has occurred 3 times so far. Last night I was getting on the freeway (and playing with a Subaru ;-) when the light started blinking and I lost power...embarrassing! I let of the gas (at around 4K RPM in 5th gear), down shifted to 4th. light stopped blinking and got power back. I proceeded to drive conservatively (70 to 80 MPH in 6th gear). the Subaru long gone... I'll bring my car to the dealer and have printed these threads. This is getting a little frustrating and disappointing!

Please make an appointment with your Ford dealer for diagnosis as soon as possible. Then, PM me with your VIN, full name, mileage, dealer, and best daytime number so I can escalate this to the customer service manager for your area.

hi, im from Argentina i have a 2011 5.0 premium GT. I have the same problem that you have, the problem is in argentina Ford doesn`t sell the Mustang, so they don`t know how to fix this problem. Deysha do you know if every ford car`s ECU are scan with the same ford computer? if that`s right, can i get the file that must be use to update the ECU?

Welcome to the forum! This is not something I can provide for you. You should speak with your Service Manager to see if they can speak with their contacts and try to get this info and possibly tools that may be needed. You can also sign up at www.motorcraftservice.com to get shop manuals, TSB info, etc. I hope this helps.

i went yesterday to a ford service. they update the ECU but the problem is still there
they put the newest version that is online.
The problem is on 3600rpm the spark and fuel cuts out on cylinder #3 and #5. just when i stay the throttle at this rpm. its the same problem that other users have?
thx!
