Ford Mustang: Heater and Defroster

Affects Ford Mustang · 2000 — about 648 vehicles.

The hazard

Certain Mustang GT vehicles may not comply with C.M.V.S.S. 103 - Windshield Defrosting and Defogging. Coolant flow blockage at the intake manifold heater core nipple results in no coolant flow to the heater and, therefore, no warm air flow from the heater or windshield defroster. Correction: Dealers will repair the heater core nipple blockage and restore coolant flow.

What to do

Contact your dealer; the remedy details were not included in the filing.
