Ford recall: Steering

The secondary steering torque sensor may not be calibrated properly, which can cause the steering wheel to turn side to side against the driver's intentions.
What could happen
A steering wheel that turns unintentionally can cause a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.

Dealers will update the Power Steering Control Module (PSCM) software or provide a refund, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 16, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 24S45.
