What This Recall Means

Component

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:HARD PARTS INTERNAL/MECHANICAL

What Happened
Your vehicle's engine piston domes are crucial parts that help your engine run smoothly. In some 2026 Explorers, Broncos, Broncos Sports, Mustangs, and Rangers, these domes might have been made incorrectly, which could lead to a problem.
Risk if Unfixed
If the piston domes fail, you could lose power while driving, making it harder to control your vehicle. This increases the risk of a severe crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Ford dealer will inspect your engine and replace the engine long block if necessary, at no cost to you. You'll get a notification when this work is available, and you can contact Ford at 1-866-436-7332 for more information.
