Driving to work this morning all seemed fine, rolling along at about 105km/h and stepped it down and the pull was definitely not there like it was just a few days ago. Vehicle doesn't even have 1000km on it yet and it seems as though the turbos weren't kicking in.

I’ve had the same issue. Loss of power randomly with no warning lights or codes. Car will barely accelerate for a couple days then power will slowly come back. Hardly over 2,000 miles on my 2021.

This could be anything from bad gasoline, vacuum leak, or wiring issues (or a host of other things). The wiring issues could be that something may have come loose or even as far as rodents chewing through something. I would run through your current tank of gas, fill it up again from a different station (hopefully top tier rated), drive ~100km or mi, and if it persists then take it to the dealer.

I had a new '11 Stang GT that was low on power, turned out to be a loose sensor on one of the overhead cam banks.

Who's to know why ST's are doing it though.

Man. I’m no English teacher, but your punctuation and grammar just gave me a really bad headache :LOL:
