November 4, 2024 — More than 6,200 2024 Ford Mustangs are being recalled because the instrument panel may not light up when the vehicle is started or driven.

Ford learned of the issue during a warranty claim analysis process in August, but no other Ford vehicles have experienced the problem. Between June 11, 2024, and October 7, 2024, Ford was made aware of 58 warranty claims for instrument panels on 2024 Ford Mustangs. However, there have been no reports of crashes or injuries.
