Ford Recalls 2020 F-150 Trucks For Risk of Fires

Posted in Recalls

— Ford is recalling more than 430 F-150 trucks due to a risk of fires, although the automaker says it isn't aware of any crash, injury or fire reports.

The 2020 Ford F-150 trucks may have been built with the wrong attachment nuts that are used to fasten the positive battery cables to the starter motors.

This can cause a loose connection which generates heat during the start cycle. In addition, a loose connection can cause electrical arcing which could start a fire.

The recalled 2020 Ford F-150 trucks were built in Kansas City between June 30 and July 1, 2020.

Ford dealerships will need to replace the starter motor B+ power supply attachment nuts.

Ford F-150 truck owners with questions should call 866-436-7332 and refer to F-150 recall number 20S40.
