Ford Admits To Sending False Engine Noise Via Car’s Speakers

mustang-noiseAh, the Ford Mustang, deemed by fans to be one of the quintessential muscle cars from the U.S., might have run into a spot of trouble. Apparently, Ford has stepped forward to admit that they have pumped false engine noise into the cab via the vehicle’s speakers, now how about that for deception?

After all, owners of muscle cars love to hear the sounds of a powerful engine, but if your ears were actually conned into listening to something that isn’t really there, then Houston, we have a problem. Apparently, Ford intends to have drivers enjoy the best of both worlds – feel the muscle and hear it from underneath the hood, but the artificial method in which they went about doing it does not leave too much of a good impression.

Ford claims that this is what they have dubbed the “Active Noise Control”, where the system was specially designed to do away with background noise which the driver would not find desirable, but also offers what has been called by Ford to be an “authentic” driving experience. Apparently, reproducing amplified engine noise via the speakers in the vehicle after putting it through a refinement process in order to deliver a more ideal listening experience is not deemed to be “fake noise” by Ford. You be the judge.
