The recalls address two distinct potential problems. One involves wiring harness issues identified in Ford Mustang vehicles. According to the summary provided, these problems could lead to a loss of power. The specific model years for Mustangs affected by this wiring harness issue were not detailed.

A separate recall pertains to a potential issue with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine. This engine is utilized across a range of Ford vehicles.
