Summary:
Ford Motor Company "Ford" is recalling certain 2021-2023 F-150 vehicles equipped with the Trailer Tow Max Duty package and a 9.75-inch heavy duty axle with a 3/4 float axle design. The rear axle hub bolt may fatigue and break, which can result in damage to the axle hub splines. |

Damaged axle hub splines can result in a vehicle roll away when the vehicle is in park without the parking brake applied or cause a loss of drive power. Both of these conditions can increase the risk of a crash. |

Remedy:
The remedy is currently under development. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer for an interim repair if they experience symptoms related to rear axle bolt breakage, such as a clicking or rattling noise. Interim owner notification letters explaining the safety risk were mailed January 29, 2024. A second notice will be sent once remedy parts become available, anticipated 2nd Quarter 2024.
