2018-2022 Ford Safety Recall: Leaky Brake Hoses and Sudden Stall Risk Threaten 300K Vehicles
Ford recalls 300,000 F-150 pickups and Super Duty trucks from the 2018-2022 model years. Faulty front brake hoses may rupture under pressure, causing sudden braking system failure and increased crash risk. Simultaneously, a separate defect from a faulty throttle pedal sensor forces the engine to stall unexpectedly, risking total loss of power steering and brake assist. CEOs with fleet assets tied to these lines face immediate liability: repair orders are non-negotiable. The recall mandates dealer inspection and replacement of both the hoses and the throttle control, with costs covered by Ford. Immediate compliance is the only path to mitigate operational disruption and legal exposure.
