Ford MUSTANG in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Ford MUSTANG is named on 68 American notices, 110 Canadian, 15 European and 79 Israeli. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
The American register
The Canadian register
The European register
The Israeli register
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.
Ford elsewhere in this register
Ford is named on 371 notices in the copy of the DVSA’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

- R/2023/329 · 15 November 2023 · Puma St · Certain vehicles are equipped with tires which do not meet the Rolling Road Resistance as required to support emissions and Co2 requirements.
- R/2023/320 · 10 November 2023 · Ranger · Ranger vehicles where the High Pressure (HP) Pipes connecting with the Fuel Pump may not have been correctly tightened to specifications. Incorrectly tightened HP Pipe joints/nuts may loosen over time resulting in a fuel leak.

- R/2023/285 · 3 October 2023 · Ranger · Ranger vehicles that may have been produced with incorrect bolts for the rear axle ring gear. In some circumstances the incorrect ring gear bolts may become loose under severe driving conditions causing knocking or whining noises from the rear axle. In very extreme cases the vehicle may experience rear axle lock-up due to the bolts detaching and getting stuck in the rear axle gears.
- R/2023/274 · 27 September 2023 · Fiesta St · On the affected vehicles an incorrect Instrument Cluster has been fitted. This results in the speedometer not correctly displaying the maximum vehicle speed.
- R/2023/264 · 5 September 2023 · Puma · Incorrectly configured Restraint Control Module (RCM) which can cause the restraint system not to work as intended. In the event of an incorrect crash sensor being installed throughout the life of the vehicle while in service the current software will not detect it and will not display any warnings in the dash so in the event of an accident the restraints system performance could potentially be degraded therefore increasing the risk of an injury.
- R/2023/247 · 24 August 2023 · Ranger · Affected vehicles may have been produced with the propeller shaft flange to transmission bolts loose and / or missing.
Reading this against the source
This page is what the DVSA published in its file of vehicle recalls, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /uk-recalls, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Ford Mustang, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
