Something seems to be awry inside Ford Motor Company’s recall and service departments. The brand has issued six recall notices spread across several of its popular product lines over the past two weeks — all to fix issues that were addressed incorrectly in response to previous recall notices with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Here’s what we know about the situation so far.
Just last week, Road & Track shared news of a double recall for the Ford Maverick covering the 2022 and 2023 model years, which impacted hybrid and non-hybrid variants. While those recalls impacted 933 and 141 trucks, respectively, Ford is now requesting a much larger number of its machines return to the dealer. More specifically, the automaker has extended recalls for the 2021-2022 F-150, 2022 Expedition, 2022 Escape, 2022 F-250/F-350/F-450/F-550 Super Dutys, 2021-2022 Mustang Mach-E, 2022 Escape, 2021-2022 Lincoln Corsair, and 2022 Lincoln Navigator.
All of the impacted vehicles were previously repaired by Ford for previous recalls, but the automaker states the repairs were incorrect on each filing. The largest of the recalls impacts the trucks and full-size SUVs, owing to a software issue preventing proper trailer braking. Some 10,627 units are caught up in that recall alone. Others are much smaller, including a whopping two-unit recall for the Maverick due to some module faults.
Owners of any of the impacted vehicles can check their recall status with the NHTSA search tool provided here. Ford will also be sending notification letters for these recalls in the middle of April, which will include instructions on how to set up a service appointment. You can also call Ford Customer Service with any specific questions at 1-866-436-7332. There will be no charge for the necessary repairs.
Ford has been no stranger to recalls as of late. The brand was the most recalled automaker from 2020-2023, and scored high on the list in terms of total vehicles impacted in 2024 with 4,777,123 vehicles between 67 recalls. That technically put Ford third on the list behind Tesla and Stellantis. Of course, it's still early in the year, but Ford customers have reason to be concerned about another podium finish.
