NHTSA recall 21V631000
Parking Brake · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: An incorrect driveshaft torsional damper service kit may have been installed, which can allow the damper shield to contact the parking brake cable, possibly resulting in parking brake failure.
Why it matters: Parking brake failure can result in unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will replace the passenger side parking brake cable with a cable that provides sufficient clearance to the damper shield, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters were mailed on September 24, 2021. Owner notification letters were mailed on March 14, 2022.
