- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:BODY CONTROL MODULE/BCM
- Problem
- Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2021-2023 Mustang vehicles repaired incorrectly under recall number 23V727. The brake fluid level sensor may not activate the visual warning indicator when the brake fluid is low. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems."
- Risk
- 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.
- Remedy
- Dealers will update the body control module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 11, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25C55. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning November 17, 2025.
What this recall means for you
On certain 2021-2023 Ford Mustangs that were previously repaired under an earlier recall, the brake fluid level sensor may fail to activate the warning light on the dashboard when brake fluid is low. Without that warning, a driver may keep driving with low brake fluid, which reduces braking performance and raises the risk of a crash.
The fix is a body control module software update, performed by dealers at no cost to owners. Owner notification letters were mailed December 11, 2025. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your VIN for open recalls at NHTSA.gov, where affected VINs become searchable beginning November 17, 2025. You can also contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 and reference Ford recall number 25C55.
