Hey man,
Sorry to hear all the problems you're having. It appears that you have 4k miles on it. Was this a Brand New car when you bought it ? or was it a Demo with low miles or Certified Used car ?
The reason I'm asking this question is because I can recommend some directions to take based on your answer.
Regardless of what way you bought it, you can go to the Better Business Bureau's Autoline. I believe Ford participates in this program. I've used it before but not due problems with my Mustang. I've never had any problems with my Mustang ever. The better business bureau's autoline process goes like this; first you must conact the sales person regarding your issue, then if he doesn't do anything about it, you're suppose to take it to the service Manager, then if you don't get the results you want, you must then talk to the Dealers General Manager.
You need to do all of the above at/with the Dealership you bought it from when you first bought your new car.
If you don't get the results after going through the above, you can contact the Better business bureau Autoline. Let me know the answers to the questions I've asked above regarding how you purchased your car.
