Ford Motor Company — Rear Axle Half Shaft May Break Under Load
Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
What’s wrong
A broken half shaft can cause a loss of drive power, or a rollaway could occur while parked if the electronic parking brake is not engaged. Either of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.

Dealers will inspect the serial number, and replace the right-rear half shaft, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 19, 2022. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 22S55.
