Ford has issued a global recall of more than 12,700 trucks because a modification was defective. The recall affects specific vehicles; drivers will receive notices for a free fix.
A separate recall targets 11,000 2018 Ford F‑150s for a transmission gear‑indicator fault. The new regimen started in 2026. Ford replaced its quarterly engine audit with daily breakdowns. The company says the change will catch life‑threatening defects before they enter mass production.
