2026 Ford F-150 (super Crew) Hev Hev recalls & complaints

1. Brakes

What's wrong, in plain English: Anything that slows the car down. Treat brake recalls as urgent. When towing a trailer, the integrated trailer module (ITRM) may lose communication with the vehicle, possibly causing a loss of brake and turn signal lights, or a loss of brake function. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, " Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

What could happen: Trailer lights or brakes that do not function can reduce the driver’s ability to control the trailer and decrease the trailers visibility to other road users, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: The integrated trailer module software will be updated by a dealer, or through an over-the-air (OTA) update, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 25, 2026. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 26C10. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) i…

2. Body / structure

3. Transmission / drivetrain

What's wrong, in plain English: The parts that send engine power to the wheels. Failure can mean a sudden loss of power or the car rolling away. Incorrect rear axle tail bearings may have been installed, which can result in rear wheel lock-up or driveshaft separation.

What could happen: 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. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.

4. Suspension

What's wrong, in plain English: Parts can break and cause loss of control. The stabilizer rod fasteners may not have been tightened properly during manufacturing, which can allow the rod to shift out of position.

What could happen: A misaligned stabilizer rod can cause a loss of vehicle handling and control, which can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will replace the stabilizer rod fasteners, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 18, 2026. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.

5. Fuel system

What's wrong, in plain English: Fuel lines, tank or pump. Fuel problems usually mean a leak, and leaks mean fire risk. The fuel tank may be improperly secured and leak fuel, or detach from the vehicle while driving.
