Ford recall  

For blank instrument panel  

Ford is recalling 6,212 of its 2024 Mustang vehicles. The NHTSA report said “the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) may not illuminate at startup or while driving. 

An instrument panel display that does not show warning lights or vehicle speed will increase the risk of a crash, the report said.  

In addition, the government agency said the 2024 Ford Mustang “fails to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 101, ‘Control and Displays’ and 102, 'Transmission shift lever sequence, starter interlock, and transmission braking effect.’”  

Dealers will update the instrument panel cluster software for free. Recall notification letters are expected to be sent by Nov. 11. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 24C35. 

Recalled Ford vehicles (6,212):  

• 2024 Mustang  

For rearview camera display failure  

Ford is recalling 24,950 of its vehicles. In the NHTSA report the automobile manufacturer said, “water may enter the Tailgate Park Assist Sensor Interface Module (TPASIM) and cause the rearview camera image to display intermittently or appear blue or black.”  

When a rearview camera image does not display, it can decrease the driver's visibility, the report said. This will increase the risk of injury or crash, the report said.  

Ford dealers will replace the tailgate top camera, wire harness, TPASIM module, and update the Image Processing Module A (IPMA) software. This service will be completed for free. Recall notification letters are expected to be delivered by Dec. 9. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 24S66. 

Recalled Ford vehicles (24,950): 

• 2023-2024 F-250
• 2023-2024 F-350
• 2023-2024 F-450

Stellantis recall for disabled electronic stability control

Stellantis, the parent company of Chrysler, is recalling 33,777 of its 2025 Ram 1500 vehicles. The automotive company said in the NHTSA report that “the front wheel hub encoder rings may be damaged, which can disable the electronic stability control system. 

The NHTSA report said that driving with a disabled electronic stability control system can increase the risk of a crash.  

The government agency also adds that the Ram 1500 “fails to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 126, ‘Electronic Stability Control Systems.’” 

To fix the issue, dealers will inspect and replace the front wheel bearing hub assembly as necessary. This service will be completed for free. Recall notification letters are expected to be sent by Dec. 19. Owners may contact FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA's number for this recall is 97B.

Mack Trucks is recalling 60,450 of its Anthem, Granite, TerraPro and Pinnacle vehicles that are equipped with Bendix EC80 Advanced Electronic Control Units (ECU).
