Safety score
33/100
Above-average recall-severity risk Lower recall-severity risk than 33% of vehicles we track.

The Ford Mustang Mach-E scores 33 out of 100 (grade D), a busier recall record than most. That score reflects how serious the recalls are rather than how many. 68% involve a critical safety system, none carried a do-not-drive warning, and 63% were issued in the last three years. How the score works.

Those 19 campaigns span 6 model years of the Ford Mustang Mach-E. The single largest affected 1,076,138 vehicles, over back over prevention. A recall repair is free at a franchised dealer and most never expire, so an older open recall is still worth fixing. Beyond recalls, you can also see the most common Mustang Mach-E problems owners report and its crash-test safety ratings.

The full record is below, grouped first by model year and then listed in detail. Each entry gives the defect NHTSA describes, the safety risk it creates, the manufacturer's remedy, the number of vehicles in that campaign, and the dates. A recall covers a whole production run, so a campaign listed for the Ford Mustang Mach-E may not apply to your exact vehicle, and one you have already had repaired will still appear in the history. To see what is actually open and unfixed on a specific car, check its 17-digit VIN.

Common questions about Ford Mustang Mach-E recalls

Does the Ford Mustang Mach-E have any recalls?
Yes. NHTSA has 19 recall campaigns on record for the Ford Mustang Mach-E across the 2021 to 2026 model years. The most common areas are the electrical system, power train, and visibility.
How many times has the Ford Mustang Mach-E been recalled?
The Ford Mustang Mach-E has 19 recall campaigns from the 2021 to 2026 model years. A single campaign often covers several model years at once, so the number of recalls is not the same as the number of years affected.
What is the most serious Ford Mustang Mach-E recall?
The most serious recall on record involves the back over prevention, affecting 1,076,138 vehicles. A frozen or missing rearview camera image can reduce the driver's view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Which Ford Mustang Mach-E model year has the most recalls?
The 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E has the most, with 12 recall campaigns on record. Older model years often pick up more recalls over time, since defects can surface years after a car is built.
How do I check if my Ford Mustang Mach-E has an open recall?
Enter your 17-digit VIN on the recall check page. It returns the recalls tied to your exact vehicle straight from NHTSA. Recall repairs are free at a franchised dealer, with no expiration on most safety recalls.

Recall data comes from NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation. For how it is sourced and how the safety score is built, see the methodology and data sources. This page is a reference, not legal or safety advice.
