Hi Guys

I am based in the UK , I ordered a new DH that just arrived at my dealers compound .
I got the call today to say it's arrived but they also told me they legally cannot hand it over to me because of the wiper motor recall. Apparently the next DH that are coming into the country that aren't affected is in October/November..

Any help or advice is appreciated

Thats horrible. Unfortunately there's nothing you can do. You cant take delivery of a new car with an open safety recall. Do they have the parts to make this fix yet?

Word is that the fix won't be until spring 2027... you may want to get one of the models available in October/November.
Looking that way, been told that a the proposed date for the fix is worst case but really unsure what to do , waiting till Oct/Nov will mean missing out on our precious uk summer months .

1. Is this actually a safety recall for which they must hold the car?
2. Have you put the VIN number in here to see if your car is actually affected: https://www.ford.com/support/recalls-details/mustang/2025/
Yeah apparently it's a safety recall and my dealer told me my car is included in the re call

Really annoying seeing as though it's only the wipers but currently weighing my options...

Maybe the DH wasn't in my destiny 🤣

Well it seems your destiny needs a good talking too. I love my Dark Horse premium 700A HP,AP Recaro,s and six speed Tremec. I hope things work out for you and you get your new baby soon.
