Details

What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with 3.5L engines. The cylinder heads may have been machined without lubrication supply holes for the camshaft bearing journals.

Why it matters: Without a proper supply of lubrication, the engine will fail, causing a stall and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Ford is not aware of any affected vehicles outside of dealer control. Should owner contact subsequently be required, arrangements will be made to transport their vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to have the engine replaced.the recall began October 24, 2017.
