What's wrong, in plain English

Some 2023-2024 Ford F-650 and F-750 vehicles have a parking brake that may malfunction. This can allow the parking brake lever to be released without the release button being pressed. If the parking brake releases on its own, the vehicle may roll away unexpectedly. This means a parked vehicle could begin moving on its own without the driver expecting it.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your vehicle is included.
2. Contact your Ford dealer or Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 to schedule the free repair.
3. Dealers will replace the parking brake handle assembly at no charge.
