Reported risk: Issue:
On certain F-150 Lightning (electric) trucks, a software problem could cause the electronic stability control (ESC) system not to return back to the default setting when the vehicle is started. Canadian regulations require the stability control system to start in the default setting each time that you start the vehicle.
Safety Risk:
A driver that isn't aware the stability control system is in a different setting could have an increased risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Ford will notify owners by mail and send a wireless over-the-air software update for the SYNC module to each vehicle. Alternatively, you may schedule an appointment to have the update performed at a Ford dealership.
Verify each fact at the issuing agency before acting. Recall scope, affected lots, and remediation instructions may be updated by the agency after our last sync.
