VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER:MOTOR

The defect
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2024-2026 Mustang and 2025-2026 Mustang GTD vehicles. During certain cold temperature conditions, the windshield wipers may function only at their high-speed setting and the washing system may fail to function properly.
What it can cause
Windshield wipers or a washing system that fails to function as intended can reduce visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
What the dealer does
Dealers will inspect and replace the wiper motor as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 11, 2026. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 26C32. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov on July 2, 2026.

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 67,842 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 90% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2024 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Ford vehicles have been recalled over the visibility 54 times before this, most recently in June 2026 as 26V374000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

This site holds the complaint record for 3 of the 5 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 92 complaints with NHTSA, 73 of them before this campaign was filed. 4 of those name the visibility, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in October 2023, 2 years before this filing.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 17 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V548000 (engine and engine cooling), 26V547000 (electrical system), 26V205000 (engine and engine cooling), 26V122000 (engine and engine cooling).

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 June 30, 2026 as campaign 26V418000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
