What's wrong

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2026 Econoline vehicles. The heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) system blower motor may fail, which can cause the defrosting and defogging system to become inoperative.

The risk

An inoperative windshield defrosting and defogging system may decrease the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the HVAC blower motor assembly, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 30, 2026. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25SB4. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning October 28, 2025.
