# Service bulletin SSM 51263

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.

- Type: Service bulletin
- NHTSA id: 10228880
- Published by NHTSA: 2023\-01\-06
- Manufacturer's number: SSM 51263
- Manufacturer's date: 2022\-12\-19
- NHTSA component: BACK OVER PREVENTION; STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR

## NHTSA's summary

Some 2015\-2023 F\-150, 2017\-2022 F\-Super Duty, and 2019\-2023 Ranger vehicles may exhibit dust ingress into the cabin through the doors or air extractors. This may be due to the climate control system being in recirculation mode as a result of the recirculation button being on or automatic strategies for heating/cooling efficiency. To minimize dust ingress when driving in off\-road or secondary road conditions, make sure that all doors and windows are fully closed and the climate control system is switched to defrost on and the instrument panel and footwell air vents are switched to off. Temperature and fan settings may be adjusted as desired. Alternatively, max defrost can be activated which will adjust all settings automatically. Operating in defrost mode will keep constant air flow through the rear air extractors and other small areas, helping minimize dust ingress.

- [SSM 52215](/bulletins/10249775.md), 2024-02-06, Service bulletin: BACK OVER PREVENTION:SOFTWARE. Some 2022 F\-150 Lightning vehicles equipped with a 15 inch center display screen \(minor feature code HJGAY\) may exhibit a 360 degree camera view that is smaller than the vehicle's center display screen. To confirm a vehicle is built with a certain minor feature code, review the build information by double\-clicking the vehicle identification number \(VIN\) in the upper left corner in the Professional Technician System \(PTS\). This may be due to a recent update to the image processing module A \(IPMA\). To correct this condition, run the APIM \- 360 camera view display configuration application using the latest software level of the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System \(FDRS\) scan tool. For claiming, use causal part 14G647 and applicable labor operations in Section 10 of the Service Labor Time Standards \(SLTS\) Manual.
