An OTA update will be pushed out in a few weeks; owners can also go to a dealership.
Last year, Ford set a new industry record: It issued 152 safety recalls, almost twice the previous high set by General Motors back in 2014. More than 24 million vehicles were recalled in the US last year, and more than half—13 million—were either Fords or Lincolns. By contrast, Tesla issued 11 recalls, affecting just 745,000 vehicles.
Truth be told, Ford’s not doing too hot in 2026, either; it’s currently leading the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s chart for recalls this year, with 10 on the books already. The latest is a big one, affecting almost 4.4 million trucks, vans, and SUVs.
The recall affects the Ford Maverick (model years 2022-2026), Ford Ranger (MY 2024-2026), Ford Expedition (MY 2022-2026), Ford E-Transit (MY 2026), Ford F-150 (MY 2021-2026), Ford F-250 SD (MY 2022-2026), and the Lincoln Navigator (MY 2022-2026). Just the F-150s alone number 2.3 million.
