What's wrong, in plain English

Icon Vehicle Dynamics is recalling its FSD 2.5 Centerline Stabilizer Kit, sold as an accessory for certain Ford F-250 and F-350 4x4 trucks. A foam ring inside the stabilizer's through shaft may block the piston ports, which could cause the steering to lock up.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your vehicle is affected.
2. Contact a dealer, or call Icon customer service at 1-951-689-4266.
3. Installation of a new shock assembly with a revised foam ring and steel support disc is free of charge.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 20E090000.
