Plain-English summary
Ford Motor Company is recalling one 2024 Mustang vehicle that was repaired incorrectly under recall 24V802.
The Instrument Panel Cluster may not illuminate at startup or while driving. As such, the vehicle fails to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 101, "Control and Displays" and 102, covering transmission shift lever sequence, starter interlock and transmission braking effect. According to the manufacturer, an instrument panel display that does not show critical information such as warning lights or vehicle speed increases the risk of a crash.
A dealer will update the instrument panel cluster software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on September 12, 2025.
