Ford Mustang Mach-E Recalls In The UK: Every Safety Recall By Year And Build Date, And What To Do

Recall data from DVSA, updated 15 October 2026.

The Ford Mustang Mach-E has 7 UK safety recalls in DVSA records, 7 of them since 2020. The most common faults involve eCall and fire risk. Enter your registration to see which apply to your car; you won't usually pay for a recall repair.1

Every Mustang Mach-E recall is recent, because the car arrived in the UK in 2021. The largest, R/2025/293, fixes a 12-volt battery that could discharge, covering 16,155 vehicle-records. A flat 12-volt battery can stop an electric car from starting or, while driving, cause a loss of systems, so book it promptly. The most serious-sounding one, R/2022/194, fixed high-voltage main contactors that could overheat and cut drive, on 6,535 cars; see loss of power recalls. Other Mach-E recalls have dealt with windscreen adhesion (R/2022/014), the panoramic roof glass (R/2021/397), eCall sending the wrong location (R/2021/225) and, in 2026, rear quarter glass moulding (R/2026/356) and traffic sign recognition software shared with the Kuga (R/2026/366). Many are software updates that Ford can do quickly or over the air. Any Ford dealer can confirm by VIN.
