— Ford is recalling more than 5,200 Mustangs because the rear suspension knuckle could fail, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
The recalled 2024 Ford Mustang rear suspension steering knuckles may have a casting defect that could weaken the components and cause the driver to lose vehicle handling and steering control.
According to Ford:
“When a parts supplier produces a steering knuckle, the debris filter may be improperly positioned during the casting process, causing slag to enter the part cavity and cause casting defects.”
Ford learned of the issue through warranty reports of broken rear suspension knuckles in 2024 Mustangs, but has not received any reports of accidents or injuries.
The driver may notice the rear tires leaning outward or inward when braking or applying more throttle.
About 620 Ford Mustangs are being recalled in Canada.
Ford dealers will inspect and possibly replace the rear suspension knuckle.
Ford Mustang owners can contact Ford at 866-436-7332 and reference suspension knuckle recall number 24S49.
