What Recalls Mean for You

Recalls are issued when Ford or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) finds a defect that could affect vehicle safety or performance. That doesn’t always mean your Ford is dangerous to drive, but it does mean action is required. Best of all, recall-related repairs are always free at certified dealerships like ours.

Common reasons for a recall include:

• Airbag System Defects
• Brake or Fuel Line Issues
• Malfunctions with the Electrical System
• Software Glitches that can Affect Performance
• Suspension/Steering Problems

Simple Steps to Check for a Ford Recall

Checking for recalls doesn't have to be complicated. Here’s how to do it in a few minutes:

• Find Your VIN: Your 17-character Vehicle Identification Number can be found on your dashboard (driver’s side, near the windshield) or on your vehicle registration.
• Ford’s Recall Lookup Tool:www.ford.com/support/recalls, enter your VIN, and check for any open campaigns.
• NHTSA Tool: Visit www.nhtsa.gov/recalls for a federal database search using your VIN.
• Give Us a Call: Prefer to talk to a human? Call our service team and we’ll look it up for you.

By staying on top of recalls, you’re protecting yourself, your family, and others on the road.
