Ford is recalling 223,472 F-150 pickups from model years 2023 to 2027 because a front fuel tank strap may not have been fully secured to the frame at the factory, so the tank may leak or come off while the truck is moving with no warning to the driver; the recall covers only trucks that were unsold or under three months in service on August 27, and the free dealer inspection is available now.
Ford is recalling 223,472 F-150 pickups, model years 2023 to 2027, because a front fuel tank strap may not have been fully secured to the frame rail at the factory, so the fuel tank may leak or detach while the truck is being driven. Ford's filing lists no warning a driver would get. It estimates 1% of the trucks have the defect, and says it knows of 16 warranty claims worldwide and no crashes or injuries. The recall does not cover every F-150 built from January 4, 2023 to August 27, 2026: only trucks that were unsold or had less than three months in service on August 27, because Ford's field observations indicate the problem shows up early in a truck's life. Letters began going out September 21. The owner letter posted to NHTSA on September 27 says the remedy is available: a free dealer inspection, with straps replaced if needed, in less than half a day. Ford has not told owners to stop driving. Ford's refund plan for a strap repair an owner already paid for requires the original receipt and work done before September 28, 2026.
