Now now fellas - this is the SALEEN & ROUSH section.  Nowhere in this topic was it asked if you prefer Roush or Saleen, nor did it ask for your "pep-boys" opinion about Roush cars   They are both sweet cars, and no doubt both will have their issues.

I have had good luck with my extreme and really enjoy the car. I could not think of ANY other car I would rather own.

I have received your e-mails guys/gals & I Thank you for them. 

I have searched here on this site, and I have not found where the TSB addresses the 2006 electrical problem that is at hand. It talks about the >> Dtc p1000 may not clear in high altitude conditions. << Please help on that 1. I did find the Shaker 500 radio article. 

Thanks again for all of your valuable inputs.

If you dealt with Galpin that is definitely a problem, imo. I will never set foot on their property again.

Galpin Ford is the biggest clusterfu#* of stooges I have ever seen in my life. I know they sell a lot of Saleen mustangs but the guys that work there and claim they are the "Saleen" sales people so mis informed they should not even have a drivers license.

Furthermore, they call them cars SAYLEEEN's and don't even know the difference between a 3 Valve and a blown car.

There, I said it.

its good to see all of us banning together
our information and the information we pass on to others will be useful for potential buyers, and for buyers who have already been screwed, by saleen or dealers that sell saleen vehicles.
if anyone is thinking about buying a saleen from hines park ford in mich, don't do it  !!!!!
they will kiss your @ to purchase, and then stab you right in the back, the first time you have a legit problem--BEWARE OF HINES PARK FORD !!!!!!!!!

They are Ford TSB #'s

However, its a wash because I don't think they apply in this case.

PolkThug, Thanks anyways.

Wow, over 1000 HITS on this TOPIC since only Posting it on Jan 5,2007 & this topic has no pictures. Alot of people(Saleen owners,potential owners & now just wont buy it) are concerned & are learning about this product.

Going by the e-mails I am getting, there are some serious problems with the 2005-2007 Saleen's. I cant disclose them at this time. All of you, will find out about them in the (near)future.

I am just amazed at how the Ford Dealerships,Saleen Inc. & Ford Motor Corp. are handling US(as consumers) who have spent Good $$ on a product that neither will stand behind(finger pointing).

Thank You All & Keep the Direct e-mails coming.

I have had some small issues in general with my car- but I will step up and tell everyone that SAR and Bill Vaughn have followed thru and resolved my issues.

I can complain, but I also have to commend when my problem is taken care of.

I don't know what "issues" db28 is talking about, because to date there hasn't been a mass recall on the Saleens, but there have been small bugs and problems rise up on the vehicles.

We all know small batches of cars made like the Saleen carry a higher risk factor in the problem dept.

Maybe theres something more to it?

I check on this thread everytime someone posts, just to see where the train wreck is headed so I think I'm responsible for 1/2 those 1000 hits :)

I have an '06 E, no problems with it yet.  I'm looking forward to the unveiling of the issue list (apart, of course, from anything already discussed on this board)

1 issue I will give you to think about as far as my #128 Extreme. That is under Bill Vaughn(Great Guy dont get me wrong)Supervision (at Saleen Inc. Irvine plant) had my car for 2-full weeks for all the problems. Take a wild guess what happened when I 1st got it back? The Same thing>Electrical Problems you guessed it. Drove it home & back to square 1 again, like nothing had been done. I can also tell you that Saleen did put 100+ miles on it, plus, gave it back to me with an Empty tank for the 2weeks they had it. Bill can only do what I request I understand, but for Upper Management to make decisions & give me ridiculous decisions that dont make sense, I find that Lack of Customer Service/Focus.

I am not & will not bad mouth any particular person at Saleen Inc.,Galpin Ford or Ford Motor Corp.

My Topic is to find OTHER SALEEN owners with problems too, which I have thru personal e-mails. To all I Thank You.
