What this recall means for you
The powertrain control module software in this vehicle may fail to detect its own software error. When that happens, the car can accelerate or decelerate unintentionally, or lose drive power.
Unintended acceleration, unintended deceleration, or a sudden loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash. Owners should take this recall seriously and have the repair completed promptly.
The fix is a software update to the powertrain control module, performed free of charge by an authorized dealer or delivered over the air. Owner notification letters were mailed June 9, 2022. You can also contact Ford customer service at 1-800-436-7332 and reference recall 22S29, and check your VIN for any open recalls.
