As such, these headlamps fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, “Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment.”

Remedy:

Ford will notify vehicle manufacturers, and dealers will inspect the headlamps, and replace the headlamps, as necessary, free of charge.

The recall began October 18, 2019. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford’s number for this recall is 19S26.

2018-03-12 STEERING: STEERING WHEEL/HANDLE BAR

2015-10-01 FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE

The affected vehicles have a fuel tank that may have insufficent wall thickness. As a result, the fuel tanks may crack in the event of a crash and thus the vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 301, “Fuel System Integrity.”

Remedy:

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel tank, free of charge. The recall began on October 19, 2015. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford’s number for this recall is 15C11.
