The backup camera often is not available, or the screen is badly distorted, cuts in and out, or image looks like ghost. There was a recall for 2015 to 2018 Mustang, but my 2019 Mustang EcoBoost Convertible Premium does the exact same thing as the 2015 to 2018 Mustang. I took it to the dealer for repairs, and was told that it is not covered by the recall. I tried to fix the problem myself, but it still happens at times.

On several occasions, the passenger door becomes unlatched while driving. Sometimes multiple times in one commute. The door doesn't fully open, but certainly allows for wind noise and "DOOR AJAR" display to go off with audible alarms. Also, the passenger window's auto/short drop feature isn't working and the window does not go back up fully, allowing water, insects, and other hazards to enter the cabin of the vehicle. It seems to be an electrical issue, as unplugging the battery with the door open as the window is rolling down automatically will TEMPORARILY fix the issue. But, as soon as the door is opened, or the window is lowered, the issue reappears.

The short drop and bounce up on the drivers and passenger side windows continuously faults and fails to return to the proper position when the door is closed. There are thousand online with the same issue. I am now going to replace the passenger window motor for the third time since I cannot troubleshoot the issue any longer. The dealer has replaced the motor for the same issue and I am now out of warranty so I fix it myself. This seems to be a recurring issue on my car and for others with this generation mustang and should be addressed by Ford at this point Any assistance at this point would be greatly appreciated. Ahold not be happening as regularly as it is

In the last 5 months I have had at least 3 incidents where the electronic dash goes blank, while driving. So far it had come back on within a short time. I took it to the dealer and they said they tried reprogramming it (but also said they found nothing wrong). The dealer said that reprogramming didn't fix it so they ordered a part. That was March 22, 2022 and the last time I heard anything from Brighton Ford - no idea if they ordered the part or did anything and no contact in over a month.

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the full 2019 Ford Mustang Gt350r verdict →
