- Component
- POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM/PCM/TECM)
- Problem
- Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Mustang vehicles equipped with 5.0L engines and manual transmissions. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) may broadcast an unintended faulted signal to the modules controlling the reverse camera, reverse light, and driver assist features, which may disable all of these functions.
- Risk
- A rearview camera or reverse light that is disabled reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash. Disabled driver assist features (traction control, forward collision warning, blind spot warning, cross traffic indicator) may increase the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will update the PCM software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 15, 2022. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 22S37.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
What this recall means for you
Certain 2019-2020 Ford Mustangs with 5.0L engines and manual transmissions may have a powertrain control module that sends an unintended fault signal to the modules controlling the reverse camera, reverse light, and driver assist features. When this happens, all of these functions can be disabled.
A disabled rearview camera or reverse light reduces your view behind the vehicle, which raises the risk of a crash. Disabled driver assist features, including traction control, forward collision warning, blind spot warning, and cross traffic indicator, can also increase the risk of a crash.
Authorized Ford dealers will update the powertrain control module software at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed June 15, 2022.
