These are not things you ever want to hear, right ?
What on earth were they doing down the assembly-line ??

Gotta wonder what the definition of a "loose brake pedal" is. It's unlikely they were driven off the assembly live with the brake pedal falling off. But...you never know!

The defect involves the brake pedal pivot tube, which, in the affected vehicles, may not have been properly flared during the manufacturing process. This flaw could result in the brake pedal becoming loose, posing a significant safety risk by potentially leading to a loss of braking function.
Produced at the Flat Rock Assembly plant, the recall targets Mustang models built between June 7th, 2023, and October 25th, 2023. According to Ford, 66 vehicles are included in this recall. As of now, Ford reports no accidents or injuries connected to this issue, but the potential risk has prompted immediate action.
To address this concern, Ford will have dealership technicians inspect and, if necessary, replace the brake pedal and bracket assembly free of charge. This proactive measure ensures the safety and reliability of the affected Mustang models.
