Vehicle Recall FAQ
WHAT IS A SAFETY RECALL AND WHEN IS IT NECESSARY?
A safety recall happens when the manufacturer or the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) determines that part of a vehicle is defective and the defect can affect the vehicle's safety. Generally, a safety recall will be issued for specific vehicle models or specific parts that are common among many different vehicles. When this happens, the manufacturer notifies its authorized dealers and the owners who have registered the vehicle so the owner can take the vehicle to an authorized dealer for repair.
WHAT DOES A SAFETY RECALL MEAN TO ME?
If your vehicle or part of its equipment is subject to a safety recall, it means the manufacturer or NHTSA has decided that a possible defect in your vehicle is a concern, and they want to make sure it never causes a safety issue. You can learn more about safety recalls by visiting Ford's recall page.
HOW DO I FIND OUT IF THE VEHICLE I AM INTERESTED IN BUYING IS SUBJECT TO A SAFETY RECALL?
Simply copy the VIN of the vehicle you are interested in and look it up using Ford's recall tool.
