2021 Ford F-150 recalls

NHTSA lists 29 safety recall campaigns for the 2021 Ford F-150, at least one with a “do not drive” or “park outside” advisory. Hazard and remedy below are NHTSA’s own text.

Build snapshot. Collected , once, when this site was built. It is not a live feed.

This is the list for the model, not for your car.

A campaign often covers only some production dates or plants, and a previous owner may have had the repair done. To know whether your vehicle has an open recall, check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls (opens in a new tab) or call a dealer of the brand. Recall repairs are free of charge.
