Ford has issued multiple vehicle recalls involving engine and component defects. In the United States, the company recalled approximately 147,977 Mustangs due to engine wiring harness ground eyelets that may fracture, potentially causing a loss of motive power or failure of headlights and horns. A separate U.S. recall for 2026 models, including the Bronco, Ranger, and Explorer, addressed improperly manufactured pistons that could crack and lead to engine failure.

Additionally, a recall was issued for certain 2025 Bronco Sport and Maverick models regarding a defect in the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve. This faulty valve can cause engine vibration, starting difficulties, and a sudden loss of motive power, especially at speeds below 20 km/h.
