The front brake hoses may rupture and leak brake fluid.
A brake fluid leak increases brake pedal travel and extends the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
What to do
Dealers will replace the front brake hoses, free of charge.
Ford will mail interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk April 17, 2023. Second letters will be mailed once parts are available.
Owners may contact Ford customer service at (866) 436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 23S12.
