Ford Recalls 110,000+ Mustang Vehicles Over Wiper and Shaft Defects

Ford is recalling a combined total of 110,626 Mustang vehicles across the United States due to two distinct safety concerns, according to an announcement Tuesday from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The first recall covers 67,842 Mustang and Mustang GTD vehicles. According to NHTSA, these cars may experience windshield wiper problems in cold weather conditions — specifically, the wipers could become stuck operating only at their highest speed setting, and the vehicle’s windshield washing system may stop working altogether.

The second recall involves 42,784 Mustang Mach-E vehicles. NHTSA says the rear differential pinion shaft in these electric vehicles may crack and break, which could cause the car to lose its driving power. There is also a risk of unintended movement if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake engaged.

In both cases, Ford dealerships will fix or replace the faulty components at no expense to vehicle owners, NHTSA confirmed.
