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.

Some 2025\-2026 Aviator/Explorer/Expedition/F\-150/Mustang Mach\-E/Nautilus/Navigator vehicles may exhibit the hands\-free BlueCruise feature intermittently/consistently unavailable when BlueCruise is active and when traveling in a "Blue Zone". Speed sign recognition may also be inaccurate. If there are no active relevant diagnostic trouble codes \(DTC\) present and the issue persists after multiple key cycles and if the BlueCruise System Health Check passes, download and run the "TCU \- Reset Telematics Control Unit \(TCU\) Module" application using the latest software level of the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System \(FDRS\). If the condition is resolved, inform customers that this may be a temporary fix and engineering is currently working on a solution expected in Q4 2026. Monitor Professional Technician System \(PTS\) for additional information and schedule service appointments for customers once the repair becomes available. For claiming, use causal 14G229 and labor operations 12651D and 12651D4. If the condition persists after a test drive, refer to Workshop Manual \(WSM\), Section 419\-03B for normal

- [SSM 54753](/bulletins/11031412.md), 2026-04-21, Service bulletin: VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL. Some 2026 F\-150 vehicles equipped with a 3.5L EcoBoost engine and 2025\-2026 F\-150 Raptor vehicles equipped with a 5.2L or 3.5L engine may exhibit a lack of power while in transport mode and up to 1 hour after exiting transport mode. This may be due to the vehicles secure power mode feature. When active, this feature reduces the vehicles acceleration and limits the top speed to as low as 40 mph \(65 km/h\). This feature does not set a diagnostic trouble code \(DTC\) or display any on\-screen messaging to alert the driver. Secure power mode automatically disables after exiting transport mode, waiting 1 hour, cycling the ignition status to key OFF for at least 1 minute, and then starting the vehicle. This feature does not affect vehicle durability, and no additional diagnostics or service is required for this condition. If the vehicle exhibits secure power mode symptoms that are described above, do not attempt to diagnose or submit a warranty claim for it. If these symptoms persist after exiting transport mode, waiting at least 1 hour, cycling the ignition status to key OFF for at least 1 minute, and starting
- [SSM 54521](/bulletins/11028165.md), 2026-02-04, Service bulletin: POWER TRAIN; VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL; UNKNOWN OR OTHER. Some 2026 F\-150 vehicles equipped with a 3.5L EcoBoost engine and 2025\-2026 F\-150 Raptor vehicles equipped with a 5.2L or 3.5L engine may exhibit a lack of power while in transport mode and up to 1 hour after exiting transport mode. This may be due to these vehicles having a feature to limit power and top speed in transport mode. This feature automatically disables after exiting transport mode, waiting 1 hour, then cycling the ignition status to key OFF for at least 10 seconds and then starting the vehicle. Top speed may be limited to as low as 40 mph \(65 km/h\) and maximum acceleration is reduced. This condition does not affect vehicle durability and no additional diagnostics or service is required for this condition. If this condition persists after exiting transport mode, waiting 1 hour and cycling the ignition, refer to the Workshop Manual for normal diagnostics.
