SEAT BELTS:PRETENSIONER
- The defect
- Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Mustang vehicles. Water and road salt may corrode the front seat belt anchor pretensioner cables.
- What it can cause
- A corroded cable can break, preventing the seat belt from properly restraining an occupant, and increasing the risk of injury during a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace both front seat belt anchor pretensioner assemblies, as necessary. In addition, dealers will remove sections of the carpet and underlayment that contact the cables. Dealers will also inspect the A-pillar sealing patches, and as necessary, install A-pillar body plugs, and/or inspect and replace the front outboard seat bolts. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Interim letters, notifying owners of the safety risk, were mailed October 20, 2025. Additional letters will be sent once the final remedy is available, anticipated December 2026. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S92. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov September 17, 2025.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 332,778 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 97% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2015 to 2017, so the oldest vehicles on it were 10 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Ford vehicles have been recalled over the seat belts 43 times before this, most recently in July 2025 as 25V489000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 3 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 1,073 complaints with NHTSA, 970 of them before this campaign was filed. 36 of those name the seat belts, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in December 2014, 10 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 4 other recalls published here: 25V572000 (back over prevention), 22V082000 (back over prevention), 22V011000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 20V331000 (latches/locks/linkages).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Ford Motor Company with NHTSA on September 12, 2025 as campaign 25V614000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
