2025 Ford Mustang: transmission main valve body and failure to reverse

In August 2025, recall campaign 25S19 was issued for 2025 Ford Mustang vehicles. Due to a manufacturing defect, the transmission main valve body may not meet engineering specifications. As a result, when the gear selector was placed into “reverse”, the vehicle may fail to reverse. The vehicle may also move forward inadvertently when placed into “reverse” or “neutral”. These conditions increased the risk of a collision and injury to vehicle occupants, bystanders and other road users. When this malfunction occurred, the driver would be warned by illumination of the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) and Wrench light. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-006409.
