- What it can cause
- A loss of vehicle handling and control increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace the tires, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 5, 2024. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 24S20.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 115 vehicles this is a small campaign: 68% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Ford vehicles have been recalled over the tires 10 times before this, most recently in June 2022 as 22V453000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 2 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 231 complaints with NHTSA, 27 of them before this campaign was filed. 3 of those name the tires, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in February 2023, 1 year before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 26 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V340000 (suspension), 26V104000 (electrical system), 25V685000 (equipment), 25V467000 (fuel system, gasoline).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Ford Motor Company with NHTSA on March 22, 2024 as campaign 24V223000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
