I stopped by the dealership to pick up the necessary maintenance records and to secure my registration for the BBB complaint.
I almost forgot my registration, and the advisor walked me out to see the technician in order to get the key. The technician told me at that FSE Tom will be at the dealership tomorrow to look at the vehicle.
Well what do you know...

Hey Kelty. Are you posting on a Ford message board about your rear end being repaired? The technician said that he read about a problem with another mustang in Tennessee with the track pack having the ring and pinion repaired. I thought the coincidences were too similar to not be you.

Then maybe your mechanic posted on something that the technicians can access, because the similarities and timing were just too uncanny.

What they think and what they are saying are two different things I think.
I think that many of them have problems, but they are more apparent in the 3.73 cars because the harmonic problems come at lower speeds than with taller gears. But I am not an engineer...
Kelty, does your attorney feel like a project against a company with deep pockets?

For now I am going to say thanks, but let's hold off with the escalation...I work at a dealership, I would like to see if they can fix it before I do anything else, again, I appreciate your help, but let's hold off for now.

The adviser called. Evidently the engineer did not like the runout of the new drive shaft. So I asked the adviser is that was something the dealership had the ability to check. He said yes. So then I asked why it wasn't checked prior to having to call in an engineer. He sounded irritated that I asked and said that was not something that they did. Really? So then I asked if they would check the runout of the new shaft prior to installing it. He said he didn't know.
So now we wait on ANOTHER drive shaft and the engineer is leaving for the day.
And if the drive shaft actually arrives (again), and is not the problem (again), then I wait for the engineer to come back (again).
I am calling Leon to let him know that I will be proceeding with the BBB complaint. BBB says they strive to close all cases in 40 days. I guess that means they have another +/- 40 days to fix the problem.

EDIT: Also if my mirror wasn't totally secure it would vibrate enough it would be blurry too just like either Keltys or Farsides.

New tires...vibration still occurring and happening at lower and lower speed
New OEM driveshaft ... Vibration begins at 70, worse than ever
Back to the drawing board Monday
