The recalls affect 110,626 Mustang, Mustang GTD, and Mustang Mach-E vehicles.
The larger recall covers 67,842 Mustang and Mustang GTD vehicles because the windshield wipers may malfunction in cold weather. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said that under certain conditions, the windshield wiper would operate only at its fastest setting, with the washer system not working at all. Both can reduce visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
The second recall affects 42,784 Mustang Mach-E models because the rear differential pinion shift may fracture. This could cause a loss in “drive power” or “unintended vehicle movement” if the vehicle is parked but the parking brake is not applied.
Ford said dealers will repair the affected vehicles free of charge.
The recalls come one week after Ford recalled more than 741,000 SUVs and pickup trucks due to a transmission defect that could allow vehicles to roll away.

I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
