The backup camera often is not available, or the screen is badly distorted, cuts in and out, or image looks like ghost. There was a recall for 2015 to 2018 Mustang, but my 2019 Mustang EcoBoost Convertible Premium does the exact same thing as the 2015 to 2018 Mustang. I took it to the dealer for repairs, and was told that it is not covered by the recall. I tried to fix the problem myself, but it still happens at times.

On several occasions, the passenger door becomes unlatched while driving. Sometimes multiple times in one commute. The door doesn't fully open, but certainly allows for wind noise and "DOOR AJAR" display to go off with audible alarms. Also, the passenger window's auto/short drop feature isn't working and the window does not go back up fully, allowing water, insects, and other hazards to enter the cabin of the vehicle. It seems to be an electrical issue, as unplugging the battery with the door open as the window is rolling down automatically will TEMPORARILY fix the issue. But, as soon as the door is opened, or the window is lowered, the issue reappears.

The short drop and bounce up on the drivers and passenger side windows continuously faults and fails to return to the proper position when the door is closed. There are thousand online with the same issue. I am now going to replace the passenger window motor for the third time since I cannot troubleshoot the issue any longer. The dealer has replaced the motor for the same issue and I am now out of warranty so I fix it myself. This seems to be a recurring issue on my car and for others with this generation mustang and should be addressed by Ford at this point Any assistance at this point would be greatly appreciated. Ahold not be happening as regularly as it

In the last 5 months I have had at least 3 incidents where the electronic dash goes blank, while driving. So far it had come back on within a short time. I took it to the dealer and they said they tried reprogramming it (but also said they found nothing wrong). The dealer said that reprogramming didn't fix it so they ordered a part. That was March 22, 2022 and the last time I heard anything from Brighton Ford - no idea if they ordered the part or did anything and no contact in over a month.

Passenger power window rolls down without any buttons being pushed (uncommanded). When rolled up by either passenger or driver's button will roll down by itself again withing 30-60 seconds, sometimes immediately. Only way to keep window up is by constantly holding either button in the up position. Does this at any speed and road condition every time it is driven. Took to savannah Ford dealer (jc lewis Ford) they will replace the passenger window electric motor. Should not be happening on a car bought in Oct. 19 with less than 6K miles.

My icp in my Mustang will randomly blank out while driving. This has happened while braking and driving down the highway. The car stays running, but I have no information. Since it is a digital screen I lose my speedometer, tachometer and everything else on the icp. It will boot back up after 10 seconds and work properly.

Instrument cluster is blank upon start-up. This vehicle should be included in the NHTSA campaign number 19V076000. At vehicle start-up, the instrument panel cluster assembly sometimes misfunctions and shows a blank display. This has happened 3 times since I have owned my car for only 1 month. I brought it in for service on 6/4/19 and walker Ford supposedly updated the instrument panel cluster software to fix this problem but it happened again and on 6/18 upon starting the car, the instrument panel was blank. The vehicle was stationary in my garage. I got in it to go to work and started it and the panel was blank. I turned car off and went inside the house and called Ford. I then went back into car and restarted it and it was fine. It was working again.
