Ford Australia has recalled 750 examples of its new S650-generation Mustang, 866 examples of which have been registered since it arrived in Australia several months ago, due to a fault that affects its digital instrument cluster.
“Due to a software issue, the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) may fail to illuminate the visual and audible seat belt warnings, vehicle speed, fuel level, engine status, and other critical safety information,” the carmaker said in its recall notice.
“A loss of safety systems such as engine status, seat belt warning or/and critical safety information whilst driving, could increase the risk of an accident causing injury or death to vehicle occupants, other road users and bystanders.”
