NHTSA recall 20V469000
Service Brakes, Service Brakes, Hydraulic · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: The front brake hoses may rupture prematurely.
Why it matters: A ruptured front brake hose will cause a brake fluid leak, lengthening the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front brake hoses with the new hoses that have a revised braid material, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 13, 2021.
