Ford Recalls Nearly 70,000 Mustangs - Here’s What Local Owners Should Watch For

Ford has issued a recall affecting roughly 70,000 Mustangs from recent model years, and if you own one, you’ll want to check whether your car is on the list. The issue involves a potential loss of steering control, which could increase the risk of a crash. Specifically, the recall covers certain 2022 through 2024 Mustangs, including the high-performance Shelby GT500, where the steering gear may have been improperly manufactured, leading to a possible failure over time.

According to Ford, the problem stems from a supplier defect that can cause the steering rack to lock up or become difficult to turn. While no injuries or crashes have been reported yet, the company is acting proactively to fix the issue. Owners of affected vehicles will receive a notification in the mail starting late next month.

The repair is free of charge and involves replacing the steering gear assembly at a Ford dealership.
