See If Your Ford or Lincoln Is Among 850K in a Fuel Pump Recall
The recall population includes certain 2021–23 Ford Bronco, Explorer and Lincoln Aviator SUVs and Ford F-250, F-350, and F-450, and F-550 SD trucks, and 2021–22 Lincoln Navigator, Ford F-150, and Mustang vehicles.
Ford is still working on a remedy for the recall issue and will notify owners when a solution is found.
Ford has recalled 850,318 vehicles due to a potential issue that can cause the low-pressure fuel pump to fail, resulting in the engine stalling while driving. The automaker said it is not aware of any reports of accidents or injuries related to the recall.
According to documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the recall population includes some 2021–23 Ford Bronco, Explorer and Lincoln Aviator SUVs and Ford F-250, F-350, and F-450, and F-550 SD trucks, and 2021–22 Lincoln Navigator, Ford F-150, and Mustang vehicles. Of the total recall population, Ford estimates 10 percent may be affected by the issue.
The issue, according to the recall documents, is twofold. One issue stems from contamination of the jet pump in low-fuel situations, which can lead to loss of fuel pressure and flow from the low-pressure fuel pump. The other stems from reduced fuel pump internal clearances, which can increase internal friction and sensitivity to vapor lock. Without proper pressure, the flow and fuel delivery to the engine can be starved, leading the engine to stall while driving.
Customers may become aware of the fuel pump issue through poor engine performance, including misfiring or running rough. The check engine light may also illuminate. Recall documents show that fuel pump failure is more likely to occur in low-fuel or warm-weather situations.
Ford is still working on a remedy for the recall issue. Initial owner notification letters will be mailed on July 14, with secondary letters planned for when a remedy is available. Owners can check the NHTSA recalls site to see if their vehicle is part of the recall population.
