> Official recall facts are attributed to NHTSA. The surrounding summary and owner guidance are RecallWire editorial work. A campaign or model match does not confirm an individual vehicle’s recall or repair status; use the [official NHTSA VIN lookup](https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls).

Ford is recalling 86,543 Mustang Mach-E vehicles from model years 2023–2025 because rear side quarter-window glass trim may be improperly secured and detach. Detached trim can create a road hazard and increase crash risk. Campaign 26V487000 applies to certain vehicles, so owners should check the VIN to confirm whether their vehicle is included.

## Which vehicles are included?

- **Ford Mustang Mach-E:** 2023–2025

These are the model-year groups listed for the campaign; only certain vehicles within them are affected.

- **NHTSA recall ID:** 26V487000
- **Potentially affected:** 86,543
- **Initial report received:** July 28, 2026.

## Why the recall matters

Detached trim pieces can create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

The [official recall report](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V487-9835.pdf) provides the vehicle and defect details.

## Repair and owner notification

NHTSA’s campaign record checked September 16, 2026 says dealers will inspect and replace the quarter-window glass assemblies as necessary, free of charge. It still lists September 10, 2026 as the expected interim-letter mailing date and says additional letters will follow when the remedy is available. The record does not confirm completion of that mailing. Ford’s campaign number is 26S56.

**Owner notification:** Interim letters were scheduled to begin September 10, 2026. The reviewed current record does not confirm mailing completion; another notice will follow when the remedy is available.

## What owners should do

Use the [official NHTSA VIN recall lookup](https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls) and contact the manufacturer or an authorized dealer to confirm whether this campaign applies to your vehicle and what service is available. A matching make, model and year alone does not establish that an individual vehicle is affected.

Mustang Mach-E owners should also review the [separate 26V582000 recall report](/articles/safety-recall-26v582000/) and check each campaign independently by VIN.

## September 16, 2026 update

Clarified that the potentially detached part is the rear quarter-window trim. The current record still describes September 10 as an expected interim-mailing date, without confirming completion.

[Current NHTSA campaign data for 26V487000](https://api.nhtsa.gov/recalls/campaignNumber?campaignNumber=26V487000), checked September 16, 2026, supports the current campaign status above. The linked manufacturer report records the filing at its submission date.
