Ford has issued a global recall of more than 12,700 trucks because a modification was defective. The recall affects specific vehicles; owners will be contacted for a free fix.
A separate recall targets 11,000 2018 Ford F‑150s for a transmission gear‑indicator fault. The updated checks started in 2026. Ford replaced its three-month engine inspection with daily breakdowns. The company says the shift spots deadly flaws before they enter mass production.
