Ford recalls 110,626 Mustangs over wipers and differential shafts
Ford is recalling 110,626 Mustang vehicles after cold-weather wiper failures and a rear shaft fracture raised crash risk for two separate models.
Ford recalled 110,626 vehicles in the United States on July 7 for two safety defects that could leave drivers with little visibility or no drive power. The action splits into 67,842 Mustang and Mustang GTD cars with a windshield-wiper problem and 42,784 Mustang Mach-E vehicles with a rear differential pinion shaft that may fracture.
The wiper defect affects 67,553 2024-2026 Ford Mustangs and 289 2025-2026 Mustang GTDs. In temperatures at 0 degrees Celsius or below, the wiper motor may lose LIN communication with the steering column control module, leaving the wipers operating only at the high-speed setting while the washer system can fail. The affected parts entered production on September 18, 2024, for the Mustang and on January 16, 2025, for the Mustang GTD, then were removed on February 2, 2026. Dealers will repair or replace the parts free of charge.
The Mach-E recall covers 42,784 2021-2023 Mustang Mach-E vehicles built from March 3, 2020, through August 21, 2025. The rear differential pinion shaft may fracture because of bending fatigue, creating a risk of loss of motive power and, if the parking brake is not applied, unintended vehicle movement. Metallurgical analysis identified the fracture mechanism, but the root cause remains under investigation. The affected shaft was introduced into production on February 27, 2021, and removed on August 21, 2025.
The wiper campaign is 26S32 and NHTSA campaign 26V418. The Mach-E action is 26S50 and NHTSA campaign 26V417. Owners can call 1-866-436-7332 or check a dealer’s OASIS database to see whether a specific vehicle is included. Because Ford can trace the wiper motor production to the vehicle in which it was installed, owners will need to verify their own cars rather than rely on build timing alone.
