26V-547
August 25, 2026 · Ford Motor Company
Problem
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2024-2026 Mustang vehicles.

Dealers will replace the engine compartment wiring harness ground terminals, free of charge. Interim letters, notifying owners of the safety risk, were mailed September 5, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once the remedy is available, anticipated in March 2027. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 26C40.
