Ford Recalls Thousands Of F-150 Trucks

There have been 299 instances reported of the parking break activating unintentionally and 19 of those incidents occurred while the vehicle was being driven.

Ford has issued a recall for over 870 thousand of its full sized F-150 trucks.

The recall applies to some 2021 through 2023 model trucks with single-pipe exhaust systems. The issue stems from a wiring harness that can rub against the rear axle housing, eventually wearing away insulating material on the wires which could cause the electronic parking brake to engage unexpectedly at any time.

Owners are advised to take their trucks to a Ford dealer who will fix the problem free of charge.
