What's wrong

The risk

An external reservoir that detaches from a vehicle can create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the rear shock absorbers, as necessary free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 15, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S01.
