Ford has issued a recall for its fully electric Mustang Mach-E made in the year 2024 to 2025. Its 166 units are affected by a defect in the LED Driver Control Module (LDCM). This fault can cause failure in exterior lighting, which can cause accidental hazards.
What’s the defect, and why is it so serious?
There may be a fault with the Ford Mach-E’s LED Driver Control Module (LDCM). If this module fails, several key lights may stop working properly, including the high beam headlights, low beam headlights, position lamps, and daytime running lights (DRLs).
Consequently, the driver’s visibility at night could be reduced, and other road users may not be able to clearly see the vehicle. This increases the risk of a crash, which could lead to serious injury or death.
