The contact owns a 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E. The contact stated that while driving 20 MPH with the one pedal feature activated, the "one pedal drive fault, press brake to reduce speed" warning message appeared on the instrument panel. The contact depressed the brake pedal and the brakes failed to operate as needed. The contact coasted the vehicle to a stop and restarted the vehicle. Upon restart of the vehicle, several warning lights appeared on the instrument panel. The contact restarted the vehicle again as both the brake and electrical failures persisted. Due to the failure, the contact called for a tow; however, while waiting for a tow truck, the contact managed to restart the vehicle again and the vehicle resumed normal operation. The contact drove the vehicle home and then had the ve

Ford is aware of these issues and I can't believe they are ignoring them and making me pray through them. My vehicle, since I purchased it, has had issues with the adaptive cruise, the accident avoidance gets disabled, lane assist stops working, and the final thing is that it registers that the camera is not working and must be serviced. the last thing that happened is that the car shut down its self driving in the middle of taking a turn on the highway and proceeded to drive me off the road. There was no braking or anything, when I reacted to stop it, I barely missed the guard rail and the car fought me to even turn the wheel. This has been documented with multiple dealerships. All of them have dealt with Ford's technicians remotely and have all failed at fixing my issues. Before it every

Passenger front door stopped opening from the outside. there is no power going to the door at all. There are alert codes appearing on the dashboard "passenger door ajar" "door fault. service required" I have taken it to Ford multiple times over the last 1 year, starting Dec 2024, for a fix and they are unable to find a solution. they attempted replacing physical parts with no success. There were no warning signs before this happened. One day i went to close my front passenger door and it would not open back up. This presented as a safety risk to me when I was being followed by a stranger, with my infant with me. I got in the car and pressed the lock button, but the stranger was still able to open my door. luckily I was able to drive away fast enough. however. because the door was seen as a

On this vehicle, it looks like I may have some arcing on the pins on my car where the charging port hooks up. This car has burnt up two charging cables. What I would like Nhsta to ask Ford is nowhere in this customer satisfaction program does it say they will replace the burnt pins on anyone's cars if they have them. Also, I do not see any recall for this issue as every single mach e that has any chance of having burning pins in their charging port should be inspected. I have received this letter on my 2022 mach e and 2023 one and I will make a complaint for both. There should not only be a recall opened up on this to properly inspect every single charging port for any kind of arching as any kind of arching may have caused damage not only to the pins but the entire electrical system or any

There is a common software bug on Mustang Mach-E vehicles where the "drive mode" of the vehicle (a software feature that changes the braking, suspension, and acceleration characteristics of the vehicle) will suddenly change and a popup will appear on the screen stating "Drive Mode Unavailable" While decelerating to stop at a light, the "drive mode unavailable" warning appeared, the braking characteristics of the vehicle changed, and I ran out into the middle of the intersection.

I parked my MachE at home on Sunday evening and I had "lock the car when i walk away" setting turned ON. I also had alarm system turned ON. Car keys were more than 20-25ft away in my home. So, technically no one should be able to break into my car without sounding an alarm. Yet, theft happened on Monday morning without any physical damage to the car and no alarm was sounded. Ford said take the car to dealer and dealer said they don't know how to get the car logs to determine what\how happened and they want to charge me a fee just to take a look at it. Car also had my garage door key programmed, so thief could have simply opened the garage and could come it right away while kids and we were sleeping - it's big security risk. It very much sounds like some fault in the car as one of the scena

The panoramic glass roof is slowly failing. The glass began to develop a small stress crack (with no sign or notice of impact as cause) which, over the months, has grown to a complete circle, about 12 inches in lengths. Additional stress cracks will easily compromise the glass and cause an immediate road safety hazard. Ford dealership denies any responsibility or warranty claim, falsely claiming it was due to some kind of impact when it was not.

While driving on Route 1 and attempting to pass another motorist, a flashing red "STOP SAFELY NOW" lit on my dashboard, along with multiple warnings of a "powertrain failure". Thankfully I was near my house and was able to get home. But the FordPass App is saying that I had a high-voltage power malfunction and will need to tow the car to my local dealership. Now I am being told that the high-voltage junction box has failed and needs to be replaced (consistent with Ford Recall notice 23S56). Unfortunately, Ford hasn't produced a replacement part, and after speaking with multiple dealerships, I have been told that an updated replacement part may not be available until Q1 2024 (Or between 6-18 weeks from now). Those of us who purchased these vehicles now have $65K+ paperweights. Ford s

I have a 2022 Mustang Mach E GT Performance edition. I purchased it new and am the first owner. The build date is September 2022 and I received a notification in the Ford Pass Mobile phone application saying: - High Voltage Battery Warning - Powertrain Malfunction / Reduced Power This is a known issue for build dates before May 2022, so my car should've not been affected, but it is. I've scheduled a service appointment for further diagnostics with the authorized service center where I purchased the car.

On November 18, 2022 my vehicle's High Voltage Battery Junction Box (HVBJB) failed. Ford replaced this part with an "upgraded" version of this part and I received my car back on November 28th. Shortly thereafter, the NHTSA issued a recall, the solution for which was a software update that my car received. On October 10, 2023 my vehicle's HVBJB failed once again (the newer upgraded part). Coincidentally, while my car was in the shop, the NHTSA issued a second recall for this issue, indicating that Ford would be recalling the physical HVBJB. Shortly after this recall, my recall was marked as complete because I received the upgraded version of the part once again. Ford's upgraded part that is a solution to this issue has been issued in many Mach-e cars and is the standard for late '22 m

Waiting for traffic to move in a busy street. Lights went up pedestrian sounder fault stop safely now and the vehicle wouldnt move.

12/04/2025 Crash ODI #11703028.0

On November 15, 2024, my Ford Mustang Mach-E was involved in a rear-end collision on Interstate 270 near Clarksburg, Maryland. I was struck at high speed by a box truck, which pushed my vehicle forward into the van in front of me. The rear of the vehicle sustained significant damage, including the complete shattering of the rear window. During the impact, the steering wheel detached from the steering column and came off entirely in my hands. This occurred without the airbag deploying in the steering wheel area. The separation exposed the internal column components and wiring. This type of failure appears to be a serious safety defect. A steering wheel should not detach from the column in a rear-impact collision, and the separation could have resulted in loss of control or severe injury.

Ford did an update recently, 6.8.0, which obscures the speedometer and moved it to far right of the IPC making it difficult to see now when driving. This is safety issue and I like to have the speed of my vehicle right in front me where it should be.

Brakes automatically engage when parked. Next time I went to drive the car wouldn't move until a loud "clunk" came from the rear and the car moved. But, when I started driving there was a repetitive noise coming with each turn of a rear wheel. Parked the car and took to dealership which confirmed that a "chunk" of the brake pad had come off and adhered to the brake rotor. Contacted Ford and was told that it wasn't covered under warranty because I had gone more than 12, 000 miles. They did set up a case (CAS-46526025-Q7S5V2), but I never heard anything from it. In conversation with the dealer, this is apparently a common problem for which Ford has issued at least 2 TSBs (21-2206 & 22-2023) but the term expired before my incident. From reading of other incidents on various forums for
