Recalls

Issue: Under certain conditions, a software problem could cause the electronic brake booster motor to shut down.

If this happens, there could be a sudden increase in brake pedal force.

This could also cause certain driver assistance systems not to work properly.

Note: This problem would cause the antilock braking system (ABS), electronic stability control (ESC) and brake warning lights to turn on, warning messages to display in the instrument cluster and a warning chime to sound.

Safety Risks: A sudden increase in brake pedal force can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash.

Additionally, driver assistance systems that don't work properly could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and send a wireless over-the-air software update to eligible vehicles to update the electronic brake booster module software.

Alternatively, you may schedule an appointment to have the update performed at a Ford dealership.
