Due to an issue with a warning light, Ford is recalling 9194 2019 to 2023 Ford Mustangs.

Due to a software issue, the brake fluid warning light may not illuminate as intended to warn the driver if the brake fluid level is low. As a result, insufficient brake fluid could lead to a reduction in braking performance.

A reduction in braking performance could increase the risk of an accident causing injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users.

Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted in writing by Ford Australia and are asked to make an appointment to have the vehicle’s Body Control Module (BCM) software updated, free of charge.
