Ford has issued a recall on 750 examples of the new S650 - generation Mustang due to a fault affecting the car's digital instrument cluster which may fail to illuminate seat belt warnings, vehicle speed, fuel level, engine status and other safety information.
According to a recall notice issued by Ford: "Due to a software issue, the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) may fail to illuminate the visual and audible seat belt warnings, vehicle speed, fuel level, engine status, and other critical safety information.
“A loss of safety systems such as engine status, seat belt warning or/and critical safety information whilst driving, could increase the risk of an accident causing injury or death to vehicle occupants, other road users and bystanders.”
