US regulators are investigating Ford’s BlueCruise hands-free driving system after two crashes in 2024. Both incidents involved Mustang Mach-E electric vehicles.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an official investigation into Ford’s BlueCruise advanced driver-assistance software after it’s been linked to multiple fatalities while in use. It includes two 2024 incidents that the National Transportation Safety Board is also investigating — one in San Antonio and another in Philadelphia.
The system was introduced in 2021 in vehicles like the Mustang Mach-E, which is the model cited in both incidents. The official investigation into the crashes involving BlueCruise comes only days after a new NHTSA probe was opened to determine if Tesla’s Autopilot driver-assistant software recall did enough to increase driver engagement and protect lives.
