2021 FORD MUSTANG MACH E Complaints

Was driving and suddenly all errors started popping up Hill start assist warning 1 pedal driving unavailable Pre collision assist not available Antilock brake fault, etc Lost braking power, steering got stiff, accelerated suddenly.

I am the owner of a 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E and have experienced repeated failures of the front-facing camera system, which directly impacts critical safety features such as automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control. When the camera fails, these safety systems become unavailable or behave unpredictably, putting my safety and that of others at risk. The issue began around 40,000 miles. It is typically preceded by dashboard warnings such as “Front Camera Fault” or “Driver Assistance Features Unavailable.” I paid out of pocket for a repair at an authorized Ford dealership, but only four months later, the exact same issue happened again. Now, Ford is requiring me to pay for the repair again, despite this being a repeated safety-related failure of the same component. The dealership confirmed the problem both times, and the front camera module is still available for inspection if needed. Ford has refused to cover the cost under warranty or acknowledge any broader defect. I am also aware that other Mustang Mach-E owners have reported similar failures online. Given the recurring nature of the issue and the impact on critical driver assistance systems, I believe this is a serious safety concern that warrants a formal recall and investigation by NHTSA.

The contact owns a 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the message "Collision Avoidance Camera Fault" was displayed, indicating a camera malfunction. The contact stated that the message was also present on the Mobile App. The contact also stated that the failure was a recurring failure and the camera had been replaced four times, and the vehicle was serviced several times for the failure. The manufacturer and local dealer were made aware of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 31,014.

Lack of power assist braking and power steering. Anti-lock braking, Electronic Stability Control, and Traction Control System, as well as Hill Start Assist and Pre-Collision Assist are disabled. The instrument cluster displays several warning lamps and text messages at vehicle startup. The dealer is recommending a replacement of the brake booster. This issue matches a recall with the same make, model, and year car, but my VIN is not associated with any unrepaired recalls.

Requested dealer to perform recall "Inadequate Front Windshield Bonding/FMVSS 212" Dealer reported "our vendor did not actually perform any work on the windshield, he confirmed work was done elsewhere with a reseal so there was nothing we actually did" There is no documentation supporting the reseal work was done on this vehicle.

Per your instructions I'm filling this complaint due to Ford refusing to perform recall 21S42/21V712 Issued on 09-14-2021. I have opened multiple complaints with Ford Corp regarding their dealerships refusal to perform this safety recall in which the roof of my vehicle can fly off during operation. For weeks now I've been trying to get Ford to provide me with a dealership that would perform the recall as I have been refused by 5 local dealerships. Ford tells me "we can't force the dealership to do anything" and have refused to find a dealership that will do this recall and contact me. I have been attempting to get this recall done on and off for 3 years now.

The car steering oscillated right and left similar to a 2022 recall description.

My 12-volt battery died and due to my car being an Electric Vehicle there was no way for me to get inside my car without jumper cables. The safety concern was that it happened without noticed when i stepped out the car to get my [XXX] out of the back seat. Completely locking me out the car and no way to get inside. The car doesn’t have a conventional door handle and cannot open without electricity. I had to have emergency services come and break into the car.

Some of the driver assistance warning systems may not be operable due to multiple and frequent warning messages. Messages are: Front Camera Fault Service Required; Pre-Collision Assist Not Available; Lane Keeping System Fault Service Required. Ford is unable to correct these making it potentially unsafe. Additionally, they are not covering the attempt to fix this under the extended warranty. There are hundreds (if not thousands) of owners of the same model and year of my car, and subsequent years as well, having this issue with no resolution. There needs to be a recall.
