Ford recalls nearly 200,000 Mustang Mach Es in the U.S. due to faulty door latches that could trap passengers
UNITED STATES, JUN 23 – Ford will update software on nearly 200,000 Mustang Mach-E SUVs to fix a door latch defect that may trap rear-seat passengers, with no injuries reported so far, officials said.
- Ford Motor Co. is issuing a recall for nearly 200,000 Mustang Mach-E electric SUVs from model years 2021 through 2025 due to a defect in the door latch system that could trap passengers inside the vehicle.
- The recall results from a safety issue where electronic door latches may stay locked if the battery charge is low, potentially trapping backseat passengers unable to use inside handles.
- Ford dealerships will address the issue by updating Powertrain Control Module and Secondary On-Board Diagnostic Control Module software, with the remedy expected by late September.
- Owner notification letters were planned to be mailed on June 23, and Ford designated this recall as number 25S65.
