Ford Motor Company is recalling 10 of its 2024 Mustang vehicles because the brake fluid level sensor may fail to work correctly after a recent software update. This defect can cause the brake fluid warning light to stay on constantly, which may hide a real low-fluid condition from the driver. Dealers will provide a free software update to the Body Control Module (BCM) to fix the issue. Owner notification letters were sent out in July 2024.
If the warning light is always on, a driver will not be alerted if the brake fluid actually drops to a dangerous level. This undetected low brake fluid can lead to a sudden loss of braking power, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will update the body control module (BCM) software free of charge.
