## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2025\-2026 Mustang Mache E vehicles. The Light Driver Control Module B \(LDCMB\) may fail, preventing the turn signals, daytime running lights, low beam, and high beam headlights from illuminating. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."


## What can happen

A loss of exterior lighting can reduce the driver's visibility and the visibility of the vehicle to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Ford will release an over\-the\-air \(OTA\) update or dealers will update the LDCMB software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 28, 2026. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25C71. Vehicle Identification Numbers \(VINs\) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning January 12, 2026.
