Transport Canada recall 2019282 · manufacturer campaign 19S19

11 June 2019

Transport Canada lists: F 150 2013

What is wrong

This recall affects trucks equipped with a 5.0 L or 6.2 L engine that were previously fixed under recall 2019-065 (Ford Recall 19S07). That recall did not fix the problem that may cause the transmission to suddenly downshift to first gear. If this happens, the rear wheels could slow suddenly and potentially create a loss of stability.

Why it matters

A loss of vehicle stability could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to reprogram the Powertrain Control Module.

Transport Canada recall 2016252 · manufacturer campaign 16S24

24 May 2016

Transport Canada lists: F 150 2013–2014

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, brake fluid from the master cylinder may leak into the brake booster. Depending on the volume of fluid that leaks, the driver could experience visual and audible warnings due to the low fluid level in the master cylinder. If the vehicle is operated in this condition, the driver may experience increased brake pedal travel, increased pedal effort, and extended stopping distances, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the master cylinder. The brake booster will also be replaced if there is evidence that brake fluid has leaked into the booster.
