NHTSA recall 26V576000
Power Train · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: Incorrect rear axle tail bearings may have been installed, which can result in rear wheel lock-up or driveshaft separation.
Why it matters: Rear wheel lock-up can result in a loss of vehicle control. Driveshaft separation can result in a loss of drive power, or a vehicle rollaway if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied. Either of these situations can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
The fix: Dealers will replace the rear axle tail bearing, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 21, 2026.
