Frequently Asked Questions
What is the issue tied to this safety recall?
The engine intake valves in affected vehicles may crack and break, causing the vehicle to lose motive power. Prior to losing motive power, an engine malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate in the cluster and the driver may notice that the vehicle is running rough. A loss of motive power can increase the risk of a crash.
What is the cause of the issue?
Due to a localized material hardness issue, the engine intake valves may crack and break.
When will the repair be available?
The repair is expected to become available in the first quarter of 2025.
What is the expected repair?
Dealers will inspect each vehicle to determine its cumulative number of engine cycles. For vehicles that have not reached the engine-cycle threshold, dealers will perform a service procedure to accumulate additional engine cycles at high revolutions per minute (RPMs). Engines will be replaced on vehicles that do not pass the engine-cycle accumulation procedure.

Ford expects to begin sending letters to customers in the fourth quarter of 2024.
