What is being recalled

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2021 F-150 and 2020-2021 F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 Super Duty vehicles. During manufacturing, the windshield may not have been properly bonded to the vehicle, allowing it to detach in a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 212, "Windshield Mounting."

Why it is dangerous

In the event of a crash, if the windshield separates from the vehicle, it can increase the risk of injury.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will remove and reinstall the windshield, free of charge. The recall began April 16, 2021. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 21C06.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 21V-090 when calling a dealer.
