Roush Cleantech recall: Fuel system, other
What is wrong
Roush CleanTech, LLC (Roush) is recalling certain altered 2016-2022 Ford E350, E450, F450, F550, F53, F59, F650 and F750 trucks that were sold, or registered in Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Washington D.C., West Virginia, and Wisconsin. The zinc-plating on the fuel return line may break away when contacted by road debris, causing two dissimilar metals on the fuel line to contact each other and corrode.
What could happen
A corroded fuel line can leak fuel and increase the risk of a fire.
The fix
Dealers will replace the fuel return lines, free of charge. Interim owner notifications, informing owners of the safety risk, were mailed in August 2022. Remedy parts are expected to become available in January 2023. Owners may contact Roush's customer service at 1-800-597-6874. Roush's number for this recall is VA-J2044.
