Buying a used 2025 Ford Mustang? Check these 6 recalls first

Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify transmission and EGR valve recall completion.
- Ask about power loss and obtain wiring recall repair records.
- Check all exterior lights and confirm cold-weather wiper recall status.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
