Description

The Tailgate Latch for the 2021 Ford Mustang is a crucial component designed to securely lock the rear deck trunk lid, ensuring safe closure and protection of your vehicle's cargo area. This latch assembly is compatible with Mustang models from 2011 through 2025, covering various engine configurations including the 2.3L I4 and 5.0L V8. It is important to note that the term "tailgate latch" in Mustang terminology typically refers to the trunk lid latch, which may differ between coupe and convertible body styles, as well as between models with or without factory theft deterrent systems. This part is sold with a standard 1-year warranty, with extended coverage and labor options available. When replacing your latch, verify compatibility with your specific Mustang by consulting Ford parts and Mustang parts catalogs to ensure you select the correct variant. Proper fitment is essential for reliable operation and to avoid issues such as those addressed in Ford's recall for latch pawl design. This latch assembly is a direct replacement part designed to restore your trunk lid's secure locking function.
