www.kbb.comHere’s the latest on Ford F-150 recalls based on recent reports:
-
In 2026, Ford announced a recall affecting about 1.4 million F-150 pickups (model years 2015–2017) due to an unintended downshift risk, which could increase crash danger. Owners were advised to bring their vehicles to dealers for a powertrain control module software update, with interim notices mailed beginning late April 2026 and a final remedy expected by mid-2026. [sources indicate this was one of the major recent recalls and the timeline for notices and remedy]
-
Earlier recalls have included large-scale campaigns over transmission and instrument cluster concerns, with Ford issuing recalls related to unexpected transmission behavior in certain F-150 generations and other F-series models. These recalls often span hundreds of thousands of vehicles and involve software updates or component replacements.
-
Additional 2021–2023 F-150 and related models have been part of separate recall notices involving the electronic parking brake and related systems, with no confirmed crash reports in some cases but potential safety risks identified. Ford and NHTSA have coordinated on these issues, and official recall campaigns have publicly documented the affected model years and remedy actions.
