Consumer Description

MY 2005 FORD MUSTANG FAILED VIRGINIA STATE SAFETY INSPECTION DUE TO ALL 3 EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLES NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT BY FORD (TSB 0654) AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. NUMEROUS OWNERS FOUND ON THE WWW HAVE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND HAVE FACED LARGE REPAIR COST ($500-700) AS WELL AS VEHICLES ROLLING OUT INTO THE STREET CAUSING ACCIDENTS WHEN LEFT UNATTENDED ON INCLINES. THE PARKING BRAKES HAVE LOCKED UP IN COLD WEATHER. THIS IN MY OPINION IS A SAFETY ITEM AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPAIRED IMMEDIATELY. PLEASE MAKE FORD ISSUE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE REALLY GETS HURT. *TR
