Yep, this happens when the PCM is going out:
The diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) U0401 and P0300 in a 2013 Ford Mustang are related to two different issues. Let's break down each code:
U0401 - Invalid Data Received from ECM/PCM "A"
The U0401 code indicates that the Engine Control Module/Powertrain Control Module (ECM/PCM) has detected a communication problem with another control module in the vehicle. "A" typically refers to the primary ECM/PCM.
P0300 - Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
The P0300 code indicates that the ECM/PCM has detected random or multiple cylinder misfires in the engine.
I would replace the PCM, you can get a preprogrammed unit by searching Google or Ebay. Here is the location of the PCM and how to change it out. Check out the images (below). Please let us know how it goes.
