Manufacturer Recall Number 20S13
Units Affected 760
Category Light Truck & Van, Truck - Med. & H.D.
Recall Details
Issue: On certain vehicles, a wire harness in the rear of the vehicle could be damaged by contact with the vehicle frame. If this happens, the engine could stall and you may not be able to restart it. This can also cause the anti-lock brake system (ABS) not to work properly and the roll stability control (RSC) to turn off. Note: This problem may cause the check engine light and/or ABS and traction control warning lights to turn on. Safety Risk: A sudden loss of engine power could create the risk of a crash. Additionally, a loss of ABS and/or RSC could also increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to inspect the wire harness for damage. The dealer will apply protective tape over the area and ensure the harness is not touching nearby parts. Any damaged wires will be replaced.

Manufacturer Recall Number 581762
Units Affected 6,697
Category Light Truck & Van
Recall Details
Issue: Certain vehicles were delivered with an operator’s manual that has incorrect information about the automatic parking function (Auto-P). Specifically, the transmission does not automatically shift to Park when the driver unbuckles their seat belt or leaves their seat while the vehicle is stationary or moving at very low speed. If the driver relies on the Auto-P feature in these situations, the vehicle could keep moving or roll away. Safety Risk: Sudden and unexpected movement of the vehicle could create a risk of injury or a crash. Corrective Actions: Mercedes-Benz will provide owners with a booklet that properly describes the Auto-P function.

Units Affected 7
Category Truck - Med. & H.D.
Recall Details
Issue: On certain trucks equipped with a gasoline engine, the left-rear brake line may contact a grounding bolt. Over time, this could cause damage that can result in a brake fluid leak. If this happens, brake performance could be reduced. Safety Risk: Reduced brake performance can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Isuzu will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the left-rear brake line to ensure it was installed properly. If not, the brake line will be replaced. If replacement parts are not available, the brake line will be repositioned as an interim measure and replaced when parts become available.
