There are 7 owner-reported fuel system complaints for the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-Ein NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Took vehicle to dealership for warranty repair as dealer confirmed parts available. Did not do repair due to Ford issuing a email to stop all repairs under this recall until further notice. Contacted Ford no reason why recall repairs stopped, no information when they would begin again. Ford recall notice blatant information without explanation. NHTSA site information is not accurate, parts are available but for undisclosed reasons they will not perform repair.
I had been driving without issue, no warnings from the car. I parked at a gas station to get a snack. When I got back in the car could not be started or driven. It has to be placed on a flatbed and towed to the dealer. The message on start was “Stop safely now”. My vehicle had Safety Recall 22S41, which obviously does NOT fix the issue.
Ford is unable to apply software fix to resolve NHTSA Recall Number22V412 because Accessory Protocol Interface Module (APIM) needs to be replaced first. The APIM is not in supply and there is no estimated availability date.
Bricked Mach E Extended Range with 10K miles and recently completed the roof and windscreen recall the week prior. Went to brunch and then came out to a car that would not start. Warning of "Stop Safely Now" even though the vehicle was driven to the location and then sat for 2 hours and was currently parked and still gave us this message. Low voltage (12 Volt) came in slightly low at 12.6 VDC. Attempted two jumps from another vehicle and a higher amperage tow truck with no change in error code nor would the vehicle "start". We resulted in doing a tow to a dealership for potential repair. Dealership has had it now for going on the third week. They are citing the replacement of the battery bus where the Low Voltage 12 VDC interfaces with the brains and main battery system. This has been cited before in the Mustang Mach E blogs. Replacement part is on hand but the dealership has a specialist being flown in to remedy the replacement part installation. Read in Mach E forums of similar problems where the battery became low and the vehicle was then disabled from engaging the drivetrain. Overall problem gave us pause on ownership and we will qualify for the Lemon Law buyback for CA if it comes to that. Looking to see if repairs will be complete this week.
Vehicle would not start after a brief stop, with a "Stop Safely Now" error. Vehicle could not be shifted out of Park, and could only be shifted into Neutral using the Emergency Tow Mode. Vehicle was towed to nearest Ford dealer, and the High-Voltage Battery Junction Box (HVBJB) failed and required replacement. This is a known issue that has affected many similar vehicles of the same make, model, and year.
I received a “Stop Safely Now” message upon returning to my vehicle at the end of a work day. The vehicle would not shift into drive, but accessory power did work. It was late at night and in a hospital parking structure, I was forced to leave the vehicle there overnight. After some unsuccessful troubleshooting the next day, I had to call a tow truck and have the vehicle brought to a dealer for repair. It was diagnosed with a faulty BECM (Battery Energy Control Module). After repair, I have not yet seen a repeat occurred the issue.
While parking in a garage the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated and ran into a wall. Anyone in or around the car may have been seriously ignored. The issues has happened twice but can not be reproduced by me. There we no indicators that the event was about to take place There is a recall for this on the vehicle type but not for the date of my manufacturing.
