Details

What's wrong: The brake calipers may have been manufactured with the incorrect assembly fluid, which can cause the caliper's rubber seals to swell.

Why it matters: The swollen seals can cause the brakes to drag, potentially overheating the brakes and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will flush the brake fluid and replace the front brake calipers and brake hoses, free of charge. The recall began October 10, 2019.
