Check Engine Light Flashing

A flashing check engine light on a 2011 Ford Mustang GT is a sign of a serious misfire or catalytic converter threat and requires immediate attention.

When you bring your Mustang to Bill Estes Ford Brownsburg, our team begins with a prioritized safety check, isolating ignition coils, spark plugs, fuel injectors, and the battery/charging system. We explain each test, provide cost-effective repair options, and show how timely service prevents cascading failures and higher long-term costs. We also highlight relevant service specials that make urgent repairs more affordable, and we offer service financing so you can address critical needs now and pay over time. If your light is flashing, please schedule service immediately or contact our service team for guidance and same-day availability where possible.
