Started car on a Monday morning for my short commute to school, and had trouble accelerating in every gear. The entire car was shaking and throttle response was iffy at best. Started the car later that afternoon, is driving fine as normal for about 15 minutes until i come to a red light, then the entire car is now shaking at idle and accelerating poorly in every gear. Two weeks prior, I was doing a bit of spirited driving (as a mustang owner would be expected to do) and got a flashing check engine light. A quick google search told me this indicated a misfiring cylinder. Drove home and ignored it until this problem surfaced. Started the mustang Tuesday morning, greeted with the same shaking, now accompanied with white smoke and the slight smell of burning fuel. Brought it to the dealership later Tuesday and told of all my issues. I've received the car back now on Friday, and only an ignition coil has been replaced under bumper to bumper extended warranty. Ford wants $600 to replace a spark plug and coil pack, claiming it as a "normal wear item" not under warranty. Took the girlfriend shopping and greeted by a touch of white smoke again. Will be getting rid of this car soon.
