Summary

Ford Motor Company is recalling approximately 30,735 of its 2022-2023 Mustang vehicles because the steering wheel may suddenly turn from side to side on its own. This issue is caused by a secondary steering torque sensor that was not calibrated correctly, which can override the driver's intentions while operating the vehicle. To fix this problem, Ford dealers will provide a free software update for the power steering control module.

Risk

A steering wheel that moves unintentionally can cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle, significantly increasing the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or incidents were detailed in the recall report.
