Ford has issued a global recall of more than 12,700 trucks because a modification was defective. The recall affects certain models; drivers will receive notices for a cost-free repair.
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 regular engine reviews with round-the-clock checks. The company says the change will catch life‑threatening defects before they enter large-scale manufacturing.
