Ford bulletin TSB 23-2369

What it saysSome 2024 Mustang vehicles built on or before 5-Oct-2023 and equiped with a 5.0L engine may exhibit an illuminated MIL with DTC P0101 and/or P010B in the powertrain control module (PCM). NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Ford filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Nov 23, 2023, received Dec 5, 2023, about the power train. It names 1 model year (2024). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

What the bulletin says

Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communication
Built 2024 Mustang vehicles: on or before Oct 5, 2023 “Some 2024 Mustang vehicles built on or before 5-Oct-2023 and equiped with a 5.0L engine may exhibit an illuminated MIL with DTC P0101 and/or P010B in the powertrain control module (PCM).”
Engine 5.0L “Some 2024 Mustang vehicles built on or before 5-Oct-2023 and equiped with a 5.0L engine may exhibit an illuminated MIL with DTC P0101 and/or P010B in the powertrain control module (PCM).”

What it applies to, as NHTSA’s summary states it — build dates and equipment as the manufacturer filed them. The dealer checks the VIN and the build date on the door jamb; a vehicle outside the window is not covered by this bulletin.

Some 2024 Mustang vehicles built on or before 5-Oct-2023 and equiped with a 5.0L engine may exhibit an illuminated MIL with DTC P0101 and/or P010B in the powertrain control module (PCM). This may be due to the software level of the PCM. To correct this condition, perform the Service Procedure below to reprogram the PCM to the latest software level via the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System (FDRS).

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

What owners reported

Source: NHTSA complaint database

Owners of the 1 model year this bulletin names have filed 85 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 21 of them name Engine, Power Train — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.

I was driving home from work at approximately 65mph when my transmission shifted and slammed back into gear. I stopped in a safe location, cut the car off and then back on, but the transmission is still slipping.

A complaint is one owner’s account, not a defect finding, and a bulletin is not a recall. Nothing here says this bulletin was issued because of these complaints, or that the repair it describes fixed them. Complaint files on this site begin in 2015.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Ford TSB 23-2369 a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the TSB 23-2369 repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.

Which vehicles does TSB 23-2369 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 1 model year: 2024 Ford Mustang. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
