Ford Recall 23V-379: Equipment – labels

Affected: 2022–2023 Ford Bronco, 2023 Ford F-250 SD, 2019–2023 Ford Ranger. Filed with NHTSA on May 26, 2023, covering about 29,607 vehicles.

The problem

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Bronco, 2023 Super Duty F-250, and 2019-2023 Ranger vehicles. The Tire and Loading Information (TREAD) label states the incorrect load carrying capacity, which can result in an overloaded vehicle. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

The risk

An overloaded vehicle increases the risk of a crash.

The fix

Ford will mail a new TREAD label to install over the existing label, free of charge. Owners will also have the option to take their vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to have the new label installed, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 21, 2023. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 23C18.
