| Component | SEAT BELTS:FRONT:WEBBING |
|---|---|
| Manufacturer | Ford Motor Company |
| NHTSA Campaign ID | 21V811000 |
| Summary | Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2019-2021 Ford Ranger Super Cab vehicles. The front passenger outboard seat belt may not have been assembled properly, allowing the seat belt to be misrouted. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 208, 'Occupant Crash Protection' and 209, 'Seat Belt Assemblies.' |
| Consequence | A misrouted seat belt may not adequately restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. |
| Remedy | Ford will provide owners with instructions to perform a preliminary inspection of their front seat belts. Owners that detect an issue with the driver's seat belt, are unsure of the results, or do not want to perform an inspection, should not drive their vehicles and contact a Ford dealership. Dealers will inspect the front row outboard seat belts and replace them, if necessary, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters were mailed on November 5, 2021. Owner notification letters were mailed December 22, 2021. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 21C25. |

| Component | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING |
|---|---|
| Manufacturer | Ford Motor Company |
| NHTSA Campaign ID | 21V982000 |
| Summary | Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2021 Ranger and Bronco vehicles. The cruise control radar module was misaligned during production. |
| Consequence | A misaligned radar module may prevent the vehicle from maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles when adaptive cruise control is active.

Any of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash. |
| Remedy | Dealers will adjust the angle of the cruise control radar module, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 21, 2022. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 21S52. |

| Component | SEATS:MID/REAR ASSEMBLY |
|---|---|
| Manufacturer | Ford Motor Company |
| NHTSA Campaign ID | 21V765000 |
| Summary | Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Ranger Super Cab vehicles equipped with rear seats containing fixed head restraints. The fixed head restraints may interfere with proper installation of certain types of child seats. Additionally, the child seat may not attach properly to the lower-rear anchors. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 225, 'Child Restraint Anchorage System.' |
| Consequence | An improperly attached child seat can increase the risk of injury in a crash. |
| Remedy | Dealers will inspect the rear-lower child restraint anchorages for correct alignment and adjust as necessary. Separately, dealers will replace the non-removable head restraints with removable head restraints, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters were mailed on November 5, 2021. Owner notification letters were mailed on March 17, 2022. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 21C24. |

| Summary | 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.' |
| Consequence | An overloaded vehicle increases the risk of a crash. |
| Remedy | Ford will mail a new TREAD label to install over the existing label, free of charge.
