FORD AND LINCOLN VEHICLES

Ford is recalling nearly 653,000 trucks and SUVs, including the 2020-2021 Ford F-150 pickup truck, 2020-2021 Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator SUVs, and 2020-2022 Ford Super Duty F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 trucks, because their windshield wipers may suddenly stop working or even detach. The problem is due to a poorly made part in the wiper assembly that can fail prematurely. If wipers fail while the vehicle is in motion, drivers may not be able to see the road ahead. What to do: Ford says it will contact owners by mail, but you can also call 866-436-7332. Ford dealerships will replace the faulty wiper arms, free of charge. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s campaign number is 22V-250. Ford’s number for this recall is 22S26.
