Ford recalls nearly 273,000 vehicles over rollaway risk

Ford will update the parking module software in nearly 273,000 electric and hybrid vehicles to prevent rollaway risks and potential crashes, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said.

  • Ford Motor is recalling nearly 273,000 vehicles in the U.S. over a parking-function issue, covering F-150 Lightning BEV pickups 2022-2026, Mustang Mach‑E 2024-2026, and Maverick pickups 2025-2026.
  • At issue is the integrated park module, which may fail to lock into the park position when drivers shift into park, NHTSA said in a notice linking the problem to vehicle software.
  • Ford will push a software update that can be delivered over-the-air or installed by dealers and service centers, Ford said it will implement the free park module update for owners.
  • NHTSA warned the defect could allow rollaway incidents, increasing crash risk, and Ford previously recalled more than 197,000 Mustang Mach‑E vehicles in June for a door-latch problem.
  • Ford will mail letters to owners on Feb. 2, 2026 under recall number 25C69, and owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 for details.
