Blank centre display screen leads to Ford Mustang recall

The National Consumer Commission (NCC) has issued a safety recall alert for Ford Mustangs made available in South Africa between 20215 and 2019.

The recall by the Ford Motor Company of Southern Africa follows a blank or distorted image on the centre display screen when the vehicle is in reverse.

 

NCC spokesperson Phetho Ntaba says a blank or distorted rear-view camera image increases the risk of an accident.

 

"If the image is lost for 10 seconds, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is set, and the driver will receive a message that the rear-view camera is unavailable on the centre display screen.

 

"Consumers of the affected vehicles are encouraged to contact any authorised Ford dealership to arrange for a check. The necessary repair work will be carried out at no cost to the consumers."
