Ford Econoline Recalls
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, there could be a problem with the connections inside the rearview camera. As a result, the rearview camera image may not display correctly or at all when the transmission is shifted into reverse. Note: For certain models, this recall also affects incomplete vehicles. Safety Risk: A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the rearview camera.
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, a problem in the transmission could cause a loss of power to the drive wheels. Note: This problem affects vehicles equipped with a 5R110W transmission and 5.4 L engine. Safety Risk: A loss of power to the drive wheels could increase the risk of a crash. For an ambulance, a loss of power could also cause a delay in patient care. Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to replace the defective transmission parts.
Summary
On certain vehicles, the speed control deactivation switch may overheat, smoke, or burn, potentially resulting in an underhood fire. The condition may occur either when the vehicle is parked or when it is in operation. Correction: Initially as an interim repair, owners will be instructed to return their vehicles to their dealers to have the speed control deactivation switch disconnected. As soon as replacement parts are available, owners will be instructed to return to the dealers for installation of a new switch or fused wiring harness.
Summary
Certain vehicles do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 210.1 - Tether Anchorages for Child Restraints. The vehicle was built without a child tether anchor bracket in the centre position of the second row seat. Also, the Owner Guide for the vehicle did not address the child seat tether anchor in this second row seat position. Correction: Tether anchorage was installed at the centre second row seating position and the Owner Manual was replaced with a new version providing the required written instructions.
Summary
Certain CNG vehicles do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 1105 - Evaporative Emissions. The natural gas fuel fill valve may leak due to flaking of the nickel plating inside the valve. This will allow natural gas to escape into the atmosphere at a rate that exceeds the limits prescribed in the standard. Correction: Valve will be replaced with one of an alternative design.
Summary
Note: vehicles equipped with 5.4 Litre and 6.8 Litre engines. Certain vehicles do not comply with CMVSS 1103 - exhaust emissions. Trucks were built with Powertrain Control Module calibration code strategy features that may cause exhaust emissions which exceed the requirements of the standard. Correction: The Powertrain Control Module will be reprogrammed.
Summary
THERE MAY BE INTERFERENCE BETWEEN THE PARKING BRAKE CABLE AND THE FUEL LINE WHICH, OVER TIME, COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE FUEL LINE.

ALSO, A PIECE OF ANTI-ABRASION CONVOLUTE WILL BE INSTALLED TO PREVENT FUEL LINE ABRASION.
