Presumably as you already have the car, you’ll just keep driving it until the part is available? I can’t imagine anyone handing over their Mustang just to have it sit on a Dealership lot for what could be 9+ months waiting for a part…

My dealer explicitly blocks me from taking it in for the recall, as parts are not available until March.

Even if they didn't stop me, I wouldn't take it in until they could fix it within a few days' time.

In https://www.nhtsa.gov mine appear "0 Unrepaired Recalls associated with this VIN" but I don't know if Euro Mustangs works with this site.

As I mentioned, the FORD dealer in Florida sent a text to my friend who is in Ireland this week on vacation. The text by the salesperson indicated that his new 2026 ECO BOOST was available since the recall had been lifted. When he gets back and speaks with the dealer, he and I will know more.

Nope. The most recent communication was a letter informing me they'll reach out when they get parts in March of 2027.

Dont know how my selling dealer is telling me ill be getting the car in august then????

I bought my GT last week and I have to go back to the dealer today for the recall. They tell me they can’t finalize the sale until I have it fixed. Which is strange because everything is signed and finalized and I’ve had the car for a week.

Anyway, they say it takes two hours so I’ll go there today and just sit there for two hours.
