The muon and induced B anomalies as hints of new physics beyond the standard model (SM) have attracted much attention. These two anomalies indicate that there may exist new interaction specifically related to muon. A lot of theoretical ideas have been proposed to explain these anomalies. Gauged flavor specific is among the promising ones. The new gauge boson from interacts with muon and provides necessary ingredient to solve the anomaly. The -quark coupling can generate flavor changing interactions after diagonalization of quark mass matrix between weak eigen-state and mass eigen-state basis. We revisit challenges for such models attempting to explain the and B anomalies separately or simultaneously. We find although for models there is still parameter space to provide solutions for separately explaining the and B anomalies, there exists no parameter space for such models to solve both the anomalies simultaneously, after taking into account existing constraints from , , neutrino trident and data. Among them leptonic processes restrict mass to be less than a few hundred MeV if required to solve the anomaly, which causes conflict between data from , mixing and also hadron decays with in the final states. The effects of and kinetic mixing on these anomalies are also studied. We find that neither can these effects do much to bring the two anomalies together to be solved simultaneously.
