Ford to recall about 149,000 vehicles in US over power loss, NHTSA says
F•Ford recall over loss of drive power and reduced visibility
Sept. 1 (Reuters) - Ford Motor F.N is recalling 148,663 vehicles in the U.S. due to a loss of driver power and loss of headlight function or windshield washing system function, which can reduce visibility, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Tuesday.
Here are some details:
- The recall covers 2024-2026 Mustang vehicles.
- The U.S. auto safety regulator said the engine compartment wiring harness ground connections could cause a loss of drive power or disable functions including the windshield washer system, headlights, air conditioning and engine cooling fan, raising the risk of a crash.
- Dealers will replace the engine compartment wiring harness ground terminals, free of charge, according to the NHTSA.
- In June, Ford recalled 91,198 U.S. vehicles because the daytime running lamps do not dim, reducing other drivers' visibility and increasing crash risk.
