What the notice says today
The issue
On certain vehicles, the headlamp assemblies may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, on Super Duty models equipped with LED reflector headlamps, the daytime running lamps (DRLs), parking lamps, low beams, and/or high beams may be dim or may not work. On Super Duty models equipped with LED projector headlamps, the daytime running lamps (DRLs) and parking lamps may be dim or may not work. For Expedition models, the low beams and/or high beams may be dim or may not work.
The safety risk
Headlamps, parking lamps and/or daytime running lights (DRLs) that don't work properly could reduce visibility and make the vehicle less visible to other road users. This could increase the risk of a crash.
What will be done
Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and replace the headlamp(s), as necessary.
Note
This recall only affects vehicles equipped with LED headlamps.
Version française (Transport Canada)
Problème : Sur certains véhicules, les ensembles de phares pourraient ne pas avoir été fabriqués correctement. Par conséquent, sur les modèles Super Duty équipés de phares à LED à réflecteur, les feux de jour (DRL), les feux de stationnement, les feux de croisement et/ou les feux de route pourraient être trop faibles ou ne pas fonctionner. Sur les modèles Super Duty équipés de projecteurs à LED, les feux de jour (DRL) et les feux de stationnement pourraient être trop faibles ou ne pas fonctionner. Sur les modèles Expedition, les feux de croisement et/ou les feux de route pourraient être trop faibles ou ne pas fonctionner. Remarque : Ce rappel concerne seulement les véhicules équipés de phares à LED. Risques pour la sécurité : Des phares, feux de stationnement et/ou feux de jour (DRL) qui ne fonctionnent pas correctement pourraient réduire la visibilité et rendre le véhicule moins visible pour les autres. Cela pourrait augmenter le risque d'accident. Mesures correctives : Ford doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'amener leur véhicule chez un concessionnaire pour faire inspecter et, au besoin, remplacer le ou les phares.
