Remedy:

Ford will mail a new TREAD label to install over the existing label, free of charge. Owners will also have the option to take their vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to have the new label installed, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 21, 2023.

Remedy:

Ford will provide owners with instructions to perform a preliminary inspection of their front seat belts.
