Latest News About Ford F-150 Recall

Here’s the latest on Ford F-150 recalls based on recent reporting up to now:

• Major recall affecting millions of models: In February 2026, Ford expanded a large recall that covers the 2021–2026 F-150, 2022–2026 F-250, and several other Ford family vehicles (Navigator, Expedition, Maverick) due to an issue with the Integrated Trailer Module that can lose communication with the vehicle, potentially causing loss of brake/turn signal lights or brake function. Ford reported hundreds of related incidents under review, though no crashes were publicly tied to this problem at the time of the update. This is one of the largest recalls in recent years for Ford trucks. [Source coverage from late February 2026 reporting on the scope and incident count is available in major outlets.]

• Earlier recalls affecting F-150s for related issues: There have been several recalls in the past few years involving F-150s for different problems:

  • A 2023–2021 range recall related to electronic parking brake activation under certain driving conditions, affecting hundreds of thousands of newer-model F-150s. There were no publicly reported crashes tied to that issue in the initial notices. [Past coverage on this recall is widely reported by major outlets.]
  • A 2025 recall affecting roughly 112k–113k F-150s with a rear-axle hub/bolt concern tied to a Tow Max package or similar configurations, due to potential fatigue and failure that could impact wheel hub splines and braking reliability. The recall involved notices to owners and dealership repairs at no cost. [Multiple reports summarize the scope and safety implications.]
  • Additional 2023–2025 recalls have targeted rear-axle-related issues in certain F-150 configurations, with similar safety risk notes and repair procedures outlined by NHTSA and Ford. [Multiple outlets have chronicled these recalls and the affected model year ranges.]

• Practical takeaway for owners: If you own a Ford F-150 (model years around 2021–2026), especially with Tow/Max packages or the newer brake/gear-related configurations, check Ford’s official recall portal or contact your dealer to confirm whether your vehicle is affected and to arrange the specified repairs at no cost. You can also look up NHTSA recall IDs and Ford’s recall details to verify status for your exact VIN.
