On my 2007 Mustang GT. The lower ball joint on left side would not pass pa state inspection @ 16,700 miles and right side went bad and would not pass inspection at @ 29,800 miles. The inspections were done at a Ford dealer. Each time the cost is over $500. Ford did split the cost after I complained about the first issue. I have checked a few Mustang sites and have found out others have had the same issues with cars 2005-06-07 and 08 Mustangs.

Mustang 6-cyl

My Ford Mustang 2007 began to have difficulty turning while the air conditioner is turned on, out of the parked position upon initial crank of vehicle. I've taken this vehicle to the diablo Ford dealership for inspection & test over the course of 1 week. They've repaired several parts however, none of which have resolved this issue and there is a major safety concern. After leaving the dealership the first upon alleged completion of this problem I almost turned into another vehicle trying to get the wheel to turn while the ac was on. It is very scary to have your wheel tense up all of a sudden to the point it requires so much force to avoid hitting another vehicle.
