Service bulletin TSB 19-2188
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary
Some 2015-2017 F-150 vehicles equipped with a 2.7L EcoBoost engine may exhibit excessive white or blue smoke from the exhaust at start up after a cold soak. This may be due to oil entering the left hand turbocharger turbine housing. To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure steps to replace the left hand turbocharger oil supply tube with a revised part.

Listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned: the document says which.
| SSM 47662 | 2019-01-07. Service bulletin. For 2010-2019 vehicles equipped with turbocharged engines, when diagnosing and/or replacing turbo related concerns, all steps within the Workshop Manual (WSM) procedure must be followed including replacement of all mandatory discarded parts. For all turbocharged engine applications, the turbocharger oil supply filter (6C683 gas engine/6L625 connector style or 6A968 diesel engine) must be replaced whenever the turbocharger or the turbocharger oil supply tube are replaced. Turbocharger bearing failure may occur if oil starvation occurs due to a restricted filter. |

| SSM 47557 | 2018-11-19. Service bulletin. Some 2017-2018 F-150 vehicles equipped with a 2.7L EcoBoost engine may exhibit white or grey smoke/vapor from the exhaust after cold start and/or black soot accumulation on the exhaust tailpipe. Some smoke during cold start is normal for EcoBoost engines due to their unique fueling characteristics. If the vehicle exhibits smoke after the engine is at normal operating temperature refer to the appropriate section of the Workshop Manual (WSM) and/or Powertrain Control Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) Manual for diagnostics. Refer to GSB G0000185 Various Vehicles Equipped With Turbocharged V6 Engines - Turbocharger Oil/Coolant Leaks before replacing gasoline engine turbochargers. |
| SSM 46085 | 2017-08-01. Service bulletin. The Powertrain Control/Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) manual has been revised for diagnosing electronic throttle bodies (ETBs). The ETC_ACT and ETC_DSD PIDs should not used to diagnose possible ETB concerns. The IDS has a limited refresh rate when reading these PIDs and cannot display quickly enough to validate a concern. The PCM automatically monitors these inputs more accurately and will set diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) when appropriate. Using these PIDs for diagnostics will lead to inaccurate results and improper ETB replacements. If a concern is intermittent and no DTCs are present, refer to historical DTCs and the PC/ED, Section 3 No DTCs Present Index chart for further information. |
| TSB 17-0007 | 2017-03-15. Service bulletin.
