Ford has issued two recalls affecting 110,626 vehicles, including the Mustang and Mach-E. The larger recall affects 67,842 Mustangs from 2024 to 2026, including the high-performance Mustang GTD.
According to the recall report, cold temperatures of 32 degrees Fahrenheit or less can cause the wiper motor to lose its Local Interconnect Network (LIN) communication with the steering column module. If this happens, the wiper may operate only at the higher speed, with the windshield washing system inoperable.

This allowed the chip to be programmed with a mismatched 32-kilobyte algorithm. Ford first learned of a potential issue in January 2026 when Ford’s Flat Rock Assembly Plant Supplier Technical Assistance team identified a report of a 2026 Mustang with windshield wipers that only operated at the high-speed setting.
Ford is also recalling the Mach-E. The electric vehicle could experience a rear differential pinion shaft fracture, resulting in the car losing motive power or unintentionally moving while in park. The part’s failure is occurring due to bending fatigue, according to the recall report.
Ford learned of a potential issue with the Mach-E in March 2026 during a teardown analysis that uncovered a failed rear differential pinion shaft on a 2023 model from Europe. It began an investigation and discovered additional reports potentially related to the issue.
