Consumer Description

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LANE CHANGE ON THE FREEWAY AT 70 MPH,, I HAD TO MAKE A CORRECTION AND MOVE BACK INTO MY ORIGINAL LANE DUE TO SOMEONE WANTING TO CHANGE INTO THE SAME LANE AT THE SAME TIME. THE FRONT END SWAYED BACK AND FORTH OUT OF CONTROL. ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN AT 65 MPH ON 09/14/2012. ON 10/03/2012 I BOUGHT THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM. THEY INVESTIGATED THIS PROBLEM AND SAID THE MUSTANG V6 MODEL HAS A TENDENCY TO DO THIS AND SAID IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT $700 IN PARTS AND LABOR TO POSSIBLY FIX THIS PROBLEM.. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE FORD DISTRICT MANAGER AND HE DISAGREED WITH THE DEALERSHIP SAYING THERE ARE NO HANDLING PROBLEMS WITH THE 2011 MUSTANGS. *TR
