Ford Australia has recalled 7724 examples of the current S650-generation Mustang, owing to a fault affecting more than 150,000 vehicles globally.

In a statement provided to *Torquecafe*, Ford confirmed the recall of the Mustang has also extended to a stop-sale of the model, with all vehicles built before June 2026 impacted.

“Ford Australia is conducting a precautionary voluntary safety recall for 7724 Mustangs built between March 2023 and May 2026,” a Ford Australia spokesperson said.

“Excess heat-shrink on a grounding eyelet in the wiring harness may affect certain vehicle functions, although no related issues or incidents have been reported in Australia.

“Not all Mustangs are affected. The upcoming Mustang Dark Horse and Dark Horse with T8-Spec Pack are not affected, alongside any stock built since the start of June.

“Ford will contact affected owners directly about rectification. There are just under 500 vehicles in dealer stock affected, and these will not be sold until the issue is rectified.

“Customer safety is Ford’s highest priority, and we apologise for any inconvenience caused.”

In the US, the recall of 148,663 Mustangs was announced at the start of the month for the fault, which at that point had been identified in eight warranty claims.

The announcement comes [less than a month](https://torquecafe.com/car-news-2024-2026-ford-mustang-recalled/) after Ford recalled 4955 examples of the current Mustang in Australia, due to a fault in which the “windshield washing system may become inoperable and the wipers may only function at the high-speed setting”.
