What's wrong, in plain English

On these Ford vehicles, the body and powertrain control modules may fail to notice when the 12-volt battery's charge gets low. If a low battery charge isn't detected, the vehicle could lose electrical accessories such as the hazard lights, or it could lose the power needed to keep driving.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is affected.
2. Contact a Ford dealer or call Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 to schedule the repair.
3. Dealers will recalibrate the body control module and powertrain control module free of charge.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

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 24V267000.
