2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Recalls, Ratings & Complaints

Incident: October 11, 2026 · Filed: October 20, 2026

Our 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E repeatedly displays "Pre-Collision Assist Not Available," meaning forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking assistance are unavailable. The Ford app recorded 26 occurrences from April 19, 2026 at 8:52 p.m. through October 11, 2026 at 1:51 p.m. No crash, fire, injury, or death occurred. The vehicle was purchased new on November 5, 2024 and is titled to my spouse; I am reporting as spouse, operator, and case coordinator. Performance Ford in West Covina has had three repair visits for this concern. Visit 1, July 29-August 10, 2026, in at 34,296 miles, repair order 240919: dealer found IPMA camera diagnostic codes B1385:68, B1385:82, and B1578:89, cleaned the camera area, and updated IPMA software under warranty. Visit 2, September 28-October 8, 2026, in at 37,701 miles, invoice 241715: the same IPMA codes appeared among many diagnostic codes, with service-required, brake-assist, and adaptive-cruise faults, and a "Stop Safely Now" fault occurred during the dealer's own test drive; the dealer replaced a frunk/hood latch and charged $841.01, but the warning returned on October 11, three days after pickup. Visit 3 opened October 12, 2026 at 37,911 miles, repair order 241919, and the vehicle remains with the dealer with no diagnosis as of October 19, 2026. Ford corporate case CXH-09594809-Y6H5M7. I am concerned this safety system can become unavailable repeatedly without a durable repair.

Incident: October 1, 2026 · Filed: October 11, 2026

My Ford Mustang Mach-E has repeatedly slowed down unexpectedly while using Adaptive Cruise Control and BlueCruise, even when there were no vehicles in front of me. The vehicle incorrectly displays a car ahead of me on the driver’s screen and begins slowing down as though it is following that car. However, the road ahead is completely clear. This has happened both on the highway while using BlueCruise and on local roads while using Adaptive Cruise Control. In both situations, the vehicle continued slowing down until I manually intervened. I believe it would have continued slowing to a complete stop if I had not taken control. This creates a serious safety concern because the vehicle can unexpectedly and significantly reduce its speed in moving traffic, putting me and other drivers at risk of a rear-end collision. There were no warning lights or error messages before or during these incidents. The only indication was the appearance of a vehicle on the driver’s display that was not actually there. The problem has not yet been inspected or confirmed by a Ford dealership. I am arranging a service appointment to have it investigated. The vehicle is available for inspection. I am concerned that the vehicle’s driver-assistance system is incorrectly detecting vehicles and reducing speed without a valid reason. I am reporting this because the behavior has occurred multiple times under different driving conditions and presents a potential safety hazard. I’ve had a number of electrical issues with this car since I purchased it less than a year ago, and I no longer trust it.

On [XXX] while traveling south on [XXX] at highway speed (in heavy traffic), multiple dashboard messages started to flash, and the car came to a stop in the middle lane. Thankfully, the people behind me were paying attention and did not hit me. I could not get the car to start or put it in neutral. I called 911 and police were dispatched. They blocked two lanes of the highway to push the car to the side. I was able to override the emergency brake to get it into neutral. It was put on a flatbed and taken to Kings Ford for diagnostics. Kings Ford service said that there were pins that came disconnected that resulted in this. They said this was resolved. I have not had a recurrence since, but I can no longer trust the car. My concern is that there could be other 2024 Mustang Mach-E's with the same issue that could result in someone getting hurt. I have also opened a case with Ford EV support directly. I do have a video showing the dashboard messages that I was receiving. I was unable to attach this to the submission as it is a .MOV file.

Incident: October 9, 2026 · Filed: October 9, 2026

While driving my 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT in mild 49°F weather with a 95% battery state of charge, the vehicle suddenly displayed a 'Performance reduced to lower temperature' message on the dashboard. The vehicle entered a protective 'limp mode,' abruptly and unexpectedly reducing available motor power while actively driving in traffic. This sudden loss of propulsion created a hazardous driving condition. No secondary warning icons or wrench lights appeared. Contacted the Ford dealership, but they refused immediate diagnostic service due to technician availability. This code appeared on 9/15/26 dealership failed to return my call.

On 11/18/25 the following warnings appeared on the dashboard: 1) hill start assist warning; 2) Antilock brake fault ;3) pre collision assist not available; and the one-pedal drive did not function. this occurred again on 1/29/26, 2/12/26, 2/22/26, 4/07/26, 5/1/26, 5/23/26, 6/11/26, 6/14/26, 6/19/26, 6/21/26, 7/23/26, 8/06/26 and 8/07/26. Upon re starting the vehicle the warnings went away and the vehicle operated properly. I have received little assistance from my selling dealer and he even suggested I see another Ford dealer

The exact failed component is unknown to me at this time, but the issue appears related to the vehicle’s electrical system. Prior to the incident, I received a charging error notification while the vehicle was plugged in. I unplugged the charger from the wall outlet, waited briefly, and plugged it back in. Later that same day, the vehicle entered a no-start condition and would not start despite repeated attempts over approximately two hours. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The vehicle left me stranded at night for approximately two hours without warning. Because the vehicle would not start, I was unable to reliably move or operate the vehicle. Depending on location, weather conditions, surrounding traffic, and other circumstances or emergency situations, this type of failure could place occupants and other drivers at risk. Additionally, I previously reported a separate safety-related incident involving this same vehicle in February 2026 in which the vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly accelerated in my daughter’s daycare parking lot. This has not been reproduced. The vehicle unexpectedly started and operated again at approximately the same time the tow truck arrived, after remaining inoperable for roughly two hours. Because the issue resolved itself without repair, it’s not clear what the root cause is. The vehicle has not yet been inspected. The vehicle has remained garaged following the incident pending further evaluation and communication with Ford. There were some warnings. Prior to operating the vehicle that evening, I received a charging error notification while the vehicle was plugged in. After unplugging and reconnecting the charger, the vehicle later experienced the no-start condition. During the incident, the vehicle provided no clear indication through the vehicle interface or mobile app explaining why it would not start, only “Stop safely now.”

Since before September 2025, the driver’s side rear TPMS sensor has been intermittently showing a TPMS fault while the vehicle is already in motion. The vehicle is still under the bumper to bumper warranty. This fault is not always on, but it does comes on while driving. The vehicle always shows the fault in the rear driver’s TPMS sensor. I brought the vehicle to a Ford dealer on September 23, 2025 and they said the tire pressure was low, but upon leaving the dealership the issue came back. The car was brought to a Ford dealer again for the issue on May 2, 2026 and they said the issue couldn’t be replicated and suggested the issue may be a wired baby monitor (due to radio frequency interference) however the wired baby monitor does not emit any radio frequency. We alerted Ford’s corporate customer care and they set up a second opinion at another dealer for May 9, 2026 but when we brought the car that dealer turned us away claiming to not have a record of the appointment. This is an issue of safety as the sensor fault consistently shows at highway speeds (70 mph+). The sensors cannot be trusted which can potentially lead to an accident due to a blow out at high speeds. At this time, Ford has not been helpful in getting this safety issues resolved. If you google the issue, there are plenty of forums talking about the same issue with their Mustang Mach E.

The vehicle experiences a drivability issue where it stalls or loses power and is not safe to operate. The vehicle is currently undrivable and has been at the dealership for nearly one month without a completed diagnosis or repair. The dealership has indicated a possible powertrain or transmission-related issue, but no confirmed repair has been completed. Additionally, there is an active safety recall associated with the vehicle that has not been repaired multiple notifications. This situation poses a safety risk and remains unresolved despite repeated follow-ups.

The Mustang Mach-E Select has three driving modes. From least to most aggressive in terms of acceleration, they are Whisper, Engage, and Unbridle. When driving in 1-pedal mode where removing your foot from the accelerator causes the car to brake, the strongest application of brakes is in Whisper mode as well. It’s not aggressive, but it will bring the car to a stop over a shorter distance. There is a known and reported problem among drivers, shared often in driver forums like Reddit, where vehicles will change to Engage mode from either Whisper or Unbridle. Over a year ago, I first noticed my car doing this on a downhill exit from a highway to a stoplight. I engaged the brake when I realized I was approaching the stopped car in front of me faster than I should. Over the past 16 months, I’ve experienced this at least twice a month, with no way I’ve been able to discern of predicting when it will happen. I drive the car in the most energy-using and highest energy-recovering mode. I am well aware that the braking might change at any time, but am concerned my wife, who drives the car less than I do, or some other Mustang Mach-E driver will rear-end another vehicle by realizing too late the car is not slowing as expected. I’ve told my dealer, I called Ford, now I’m notifying you in the hopes you can get Ford to issue a software fix. This was something I just noticed again pulling in to my garage solely because I was showing my wife something, and I realized I had the time to report it. Here are a few links of people having this issue. [XXX] [XXX] / [XXX] You’ll see this has been happening with a wide variety of owners for years. Please do something before someone gets injured, if it hasn’t already happened. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
