Summary

Ford Motor Company "Ford" is recalling certain 2021-2022 E-350 and E-450 vehicles equipped with dual rear wheels. An inadequate connection between the power steering pressure line and the brake hydroboost unit may result in a sudden loss of power steering fluid.

Consequence

A sudden loss of power steering fluid can result in a loss of power steering and power brake assist, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the power steering pressure line and the hydroboost jumper line, free of charge. Vehicles in this recall were previously recalled under 22V-089 and owners will need to have the new remedy completed even if their vehicle was remedied under the prior recall. Interim owner notification letters explaining the safety risk were mailed March 22, 2024. A second notice will be sent once remedy parts become available, anticipated 2nd Quarter 2024. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 24S07.
