2007
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
HARMONIC BALANCER/CRANKSHAFT PULLEY CAME APART ON A 2007 FORD MUSTANG V6 WHILE DRIVING. IT HAD LESS THAN 37000 MILES ON IT. LUCKILY, ALL THAT HAPPENED WAS SERPENTINE BELT SLIPPED OFF, WHICH I REALIZED IMMEDIATELY WHEN I LOST POWER STEERING. I WAS NEAR HOME AND GOT HOME SAFELY. THIS COULD BE A MAJOR PROBLEM IF IT HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEED. REPLACED BY MY MECHANIC, WHO SAYS THAT HE HAS SEEN THIS NUMEROUS TIME IN THE PAST, AND THAT FORD NOW SELLS AN "UPDATED" PART FOR THE VEHICLE. THIS SUGGEST TO ME THEY KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM, BUT DON'T WANT TO PAY TO REPLACE IT. *TR
