What This Recall Means

Component

AIR BAGS

What Happened
The Restraint Control Module in your vehicle is a critical computer that helps control your airbags. The coating on this module can crack and cause electrical problems if exposed to moisture.
Risk if Unfixed
If the module fails, your airbags, side curtain airbags, and seatbelt pretensioners might not work when you need them most in a crash. This could put you at risk of serious injury.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Ford will replace the faulty module for free at your local dealership. You'll be contacted when parts become available, likely in the coming months. In the meantime, you can reach out to Ford at 1-866-436-7332 for more information.
