Ford Extends Mach-E Recall To The US As Its Windscreen Might Fall Out-September 2024

The Ford Mustang Mach-E in white

In March, the company was in the US due to loose subframe bolts. due to issues with the glue holding the sunroof and windscreen in place.

It turns out that the problem wasn’t limited to Mustangs sold in Canada, as Ford has now issued a similar recall for Mach-Es sold in the US.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Ford has published two recalls for its Mustang Mach-E in the US. .

The first recall affects the windscreen mounting on the Mach-E, which the NHTSA says “may not have been properly bonded to the vehicle”. The agency warned that this manufacturing mishap could cause the windscreen to come out in the event of a crash.

The recall affects 17,692 vehicles in the US.

In order to stop the electric Mustang from , Ford dealers will remove and reinstall the windshield, free of charge. The company is expected to contact owners about the fix in October.

The second recall impacts 13,544 vehicles sold in the US and relates to the adhesive holding the glass roof in place, which the NHTSA also says could detach.

To fix this issue, Ford dealers across the US will apply additional glue to the affected cars.

It sounds like a simple fix for the affected vehicles, but it’s another hiccup in the roll out of Ford’s first mainstream electric car.

The seven kinds of crappy car reviews
The seven kinds of crappy car reviews
All auto writers, even those of us here at Jalopnik, have sometimes been guilty of turning out crap car reviews. And when a review fails, it's likely because it falls into one of these seven, fail-encrusted categories. Who has time to enjoy the fine wines and aged steaks that cap...

For $12,000, I sing the Porsche electric
For the ultimate in avoiding high pump prices, you can go electric, however new battery-powered cars from Tesla and Fisker are pretty costly. Today's electric 914's price proves that needn't be the case, but is it still shocking? The British never had a robust space program, and seemingly to make...

was a site that was all about the fast Volvos. It's pretty much gone, but today's Turbo 242 is still here, and at a price that could mean it may not be going fast. Yesterday's lacked its contemporary brethren's Raphaelesque proportions. And possibly because of that, 60% of you ascribed...

The seller of today's 318i convertible claims that it is more rare than the more motor 325i. Still, it may be more desirable because it goes more miles per gallon, but is its price more than you'd be willing to pay? BMW is the ultimate driving machine, or at least...

Upon its introduction, Cadillac's Seville was the brand's most expensive standard model, albeit also their smallest. Today's '78 shows why size does matter, but will you find that extends to its price? Size was at issue yesterday, as the wee motor in the convertible we ruminated over, was deemed too...

Despite common thinking, you needn't have to trade Rubicon-ability for good fuel economy, as today's diesel Defender proves. You might however, need to be an oil company exec to buy it. Time heals all wounds, and while 60 years ago we may have been at war with Japan and Germany,...
