Summary

Ford Motor Company "Ford" is recalling certain 2021-2022 EcoSport vehicles. The front axle half shafts may disconnect from the transmission, which can result in a loss of drive power.

Dealers will inspect and replace the half shafts as necessary, free of charge. Interim letters, notifying owners of the safety risk, were mailed April 15, 2025. A second notice will be sent once the final remedy is available. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S12.
