## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2022\-2023 Ford Mustang vehicles.  The secondary steering torque sensor may not be calibrated properly, which can cause the steering wheel to turn side to side against the driver's intentions.


## What can happen

A steering wheel that turns unintentionally can cause a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will update the power steering control module \(PSCM\) software, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed on October 11, 2024.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 24S44.
