View Date:2024-12-23 17:05:50
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued multiple recalls last week, including more than 100,000 Ford trucks recalled for a rear axle issue that may cause an increased risk of crash.
Are you looking to see if any recalls were issued on your vehicle? If the car isn't listed below, owners can check USA TODAY’s automotive recall database or search NHTSA’s database for new recalls. The NHTSA website allows you to search for recalls based on your vehicle identification number or VIN.
Here is what to know about the vehicle recalls published by the NHTSA from Sunday, Dec. 31 to Monday, Jan. 8.
Ford F-150 recall for rear axle issue
Ford is recalling 112,965 of its 2021-2023 F-150 trucks equipped with the Trailer Tow Max Duty package and a 9.75-inch heavy duty axle with a 3/4 float axle design because the rear axle hub bolt may fatigue and break. That 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, the company said in a NHTSA report.
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. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed Jan. 29, 2024. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 23S65.
