2025 Ford, Lincoln Vehicles Recalled Over Headlight Failures

Ford Motor Company is recalling select 2025 Ford Mustang, Ford Mustang Mach-E, and Lincoln Nautilus models over an issue with the headlights.

The defect: in affected vehicles, the LED Driver Modules may contain a burnt diode, which can cause the low-beam and high-beam headlights, daytime running lights, front position lights, and front turn signals to fail in the affected headlight. On Nautilus vehicles only, this condition may also cause the rear tail light, rear turn signal, and rear position light to fail. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, “Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment.”

The hazards: exterior lighting failure can reduce visibility for the driver and other road users, increasing the risk of a crash.
