11 recalls covering model years 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
The metal arms that hold the windshield wipers can break. If an arm breaks, that wiper stops sweeping the glass. In heavy rain or snow you could suddenly be left with little or no clear view through the windshield while you are driving. A dealer will inspect the wiper arms and replace them if needed, free of charge. Ford mailed owner letters in August 2026, and you can look up your VIN online now.
These heavy-duty Ford trucks were repaired under an earlier recall, but that fix was not done correctly. Deposits from biodiesel fuel can build up on moving parts inside the high-pressure fuel pump and cause the pump to fail. If that happens, the truck can lose engine power while you are driving. Dealers will update the engine computer software for free. Your truck needs this even though the earlier recall work was already done.
These Ford and Lincoln trucks and SUVs have a built-in trailer brake controller. On the affected vehicles, that controller can stop communicating with the rest of the vehicle while you are towing. When that happens, the trailer's brake lights and turn signals can go dark, and the trailer's brakes may stop working. That makes the trailer harder to control and makes it harder for drivers behind you to see when you are braking or turning. A free software update fixes it.
A software error in the module that runs the screen can make the backup camera image lag, freeze, or not appear at all when you put the vehicle in reverse. You could back into something or someone you cannot see. The fix is a software update to that module, done free at a dealer or, on some vehicles, sent to the vehicle over the air. Ford is doing this in phases, so timing depends on your model and year.
The camera that shows what is behind you when you back up may go blank or show a scrambled picture. When that happens you cannot see people, pets or objects behind the vehicle on the screen, which makes backing up riskier. A dealer will check the camera and replace it if needed, at no charge. Ford mailed letters to owners in September 2025, so you may already have one.
These trucks have a diesel engine with a high-pressure pump that pushes fuel to the engine. Deposits left behind by biodiesel fuel can build up on moving parts inside that pump. Over time the buildup wears the parts out and the pump can quit working. If the pump fails, the engine stops making power, so the truck can slow down or stop while you are driving. Dealers will reprogram the truck's computers to ease the strain on the pump.
Inside the steering column is a coiled ribbon of wire, called a clock spring, that keeps the driver's airbag connected as you turn the steering wheel. On these trucks a weld in that part may not be strong enough, and the electrical connection to the airbag can be lost. If that happens, the airbag in the steering wheel will not go off in a crash. Dealers will inspect the part and replace it if it needs it.
The nuts that hold the front wheel hub extender — the spacer the front wheel bolts onto — may not have been tightened enough. If they work loose, the wheel and the extender can come off the truck while you are driving. That can make you lose control, and a loose wheel in the road is dangerous for other drivers too. Ford says do not drive these trucks until a dealer has checked them.
⚠ NHTSA advises: do not drive this vehicle until repaired.
The safety label on your vehicle is missing the tire size, rim type and correct tire pressure numbers for the front and rear axles. Nothing is actually broken on the vehicle. The problem is that you, a tire shop, or a future owner could fit the wrong size tire or wheel, or inflate the tires to the wrong pressure, because the numbers are not there to check. Dealers put on a correct replacement label.
These trucks have a 6.7-liter diesel engine. The cap on the secondary fuel filter under the hood may have a tiny void at its top center. Over time that weak spot can turn into a pinhole, letting diesel fuel leak out of the top of the filter. Fuel leaking near anything hot or sparking can start a fire. Dealers will replace both the primary and secondary fuel filters at no charge.
These trucks have dual rear wheels and extenders on the front wheel hubs. The extenders may not have been bolted on correctly, so a front wheel and its extender could come off while you are driving. Ford is telling owners not to drive these trucks until a dealer checks how tight the extender nuts are. The dealer will inspect and tighten them at no charge. Letters went out to owners in June 2021.
⚠ NHTSA advises: do not drive this vehicle until repaired.
