Ford is recalling 2020-2023 Mustangs with a brake fluid warning light issue that could reduce braking performance and increase crash risk. Owners must update software at dealerships.
Without a low brake fluid warning light, the vehicle may be driven with low brake fluid, reducing braking performance and increasing the risk of a crash.
Ford is recalling certain 2020-2023 Mustang vehicles because the brake fluid level sensor may not activate the warning light when fluid is low. This could lead to reduced braking performance and a higher risk of crashes if drivers don't notice low brake fluid.
The brake fluid level sensor may not activate the visual warning indicator when brake fluid is low. This means drivers might not know their brake fluid is low, potentially reducing braking performance and increasing crash risk.
Owners of 2020-2023 Ford Mustang vehicles are affected. Drivers who rely on the brake fluid warning light for safety are at higher risk.
