Plain-English summary

Ford Motor Company is recalling certain 2025-2026 Mustang Mach E vehicles. The Light Driver Control Module B (LDCMB) may fail, which can prevent the turn signals, daytime running lights, low beam, and high beam headlights from illuminating. This defect causes the vehicles to fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108 regarding lamps and reflective devices.

A loss of exterior lighting can reduce the driver's visibility and the visibility of the vehicle to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Ford will release an over-the-air (OTA) update or dealers will update the LDCMB software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on January 28, 2026. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25C71. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning January 12, 2026.
