## Other bulletins for the same vehicles and component

- [SSM 55240](/bulletins/11038445.md), 2026-10-13, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; UNKNOWN OR OTHER; SERVICE BRAKES. Some 2021\-2024 Bronco vehicles may exhibit an illuminated red brake warning indicator with diagnostic trouble code \(DTC\) C0049:01 stored in the anti\-lock brake system \(ABS\) module. This may be due to pin fitment at the brake fluid level sensor connector. To resolve this concern, replace the brake fluid reservoir and replace the brake fluid level sensor electrical connector C1052 with service pigtail wiring kit 3U2Z\-14S411\-BXAB. For claiming, use causal part 2L210 and labor operations 2140A and 2219D45WR.
- [SSM 55228](/bulletins/11038440.md), 2026-10-12, Service bulletin: ENGINE; UNKNOWN OR OTHER. Some 2020\-2026 Aviator/Explorer/F\-150/Bronco/Ranger vehicles equipped with a 2.7L or 3.0L \(non\-diesel\) engine may need the front engine cover removed and reinstalled for various reasons. The Workshop Manual \(WSM\), Section 303\-01 Engine \> Removal and Installation \> Engine Front Cover service procedure has been updated to include a new essential special service tool \(ESST\) guide pin alignment tool \(303\-1790\) that is used to align the engine front cover to the engine block, preventing the O\-ring seal on the engine oil galley feed tube from getting damaged during installation.
- [SSM 55221](/bulletins/11038438.md), 2026-10-12, Service bulletin: UNKNOWN OR OTHER; POWER TRAIN; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. For 20222026 vehicles equipped with a 8F35 transmission, a revision to the Road Testing Vehicle procedure has been made in the WSM, Section 307\-01 \> Diagnosis and Testing. This updated procedure improves the diagnosis of customer reported transmission concerns and aids in locating the proper root cause. During diagnosis and testing, details regarding whether the condition is more prevalent when the vehicle is hot or cold, throttle percentage at the time of occurrence, vehicle speed, the specific shift involved, and whether the issue occurs during transmission engagements \(N\>R, N\>D, R\>D, and/or D\>R\) should be noted in the warranty claim. Engineering requests including these detailed operating conditions that will significantly assist with root cause analysis. Diagnosis, testing, and repair should use established labor times outside this article.
- [SSM 55220](/bulletins/11038437.md), 2026-10-12, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; UNKNOWN OR OTHER. Some 2024\-2026 Nautilus and 2025\-2026 Explorer/Aviator/Expedition/Navigator vehicles may experience Android Auto connection or general Bluetooth pairing concerns for both Android and IOS after an APIM software update. This may be due to the APIM software. To temporarily correct the issue:\<br /\>\<br /\> \* For Android Auto related issues: Clear Android Auto app storage in the center display screen. Vehicle Settings \> Settings \> Apps \> Android Auto \> Clear Storage. \<br /\> \* For general Bluetooth connectivity issues: Clear Contacts Storage app storage in the center display screen. Vehicle Settings \> Apps \> Uncheck hide system apps \> Contacts Storage \> Clear Storage.\<br /\>\<br /\> If the condition persists, perform a master reset from the center display screen, remove the vehicle from the phone, then re\-pair the device.\<br /\>\<br /\> If the condition continues to persist, refer to Workshop Manual \(WSM\), Section 415\-00 for normal diagnostics and repair as necessary outside of this article.\<br /\>\<br /\> If the condition is resolved, inform customers that engineering is currently working on a permanent solution
- [SSM 55217](/bulletins/11038165.md), 2026-10-06, Service bulletin: ENGINE; UNKNOWN OR OTHER. Some 2020\-2024 Explorer/Aviator vehicles equipped with 3.0L EcoBoost/hybrid engine may exhibit blue or black exhaust smoke on startup for the first 5 minutes after an overnight cold soak with no illuminated malfunction indicator lamp \(MIL\) or powertrain diagnostic trouble codes \(DTCs\) present. This may be due to engine oil breaching the dynamic oil seals separating the bearing core from the turbine housing in the left side turbocharger assembly. There is a new, updated left side turbocharger oil supply tube equipped with an internal check valve to prevent the engine oil from entering turbine housing after the engine is off. Replace the existing left side turbocharger oil supply tube with the updated service part that includes the check valve \(service part\# L1MZ\-9T516\-B\) or latest level part. Refer to the Workshop Manual \(WSM\), Section 303\-04 Fuel Charging and Controls \- Turbocharger \> Removal and Installation \> Turbocharger Oil Supply Tube LH. For claiming, use causal part 9T516 and labor operation code 9440AL.
- [SSM 55211](/bulletins/11038163.md), 2026-10-06, Over\-the\-air update: ENGINE; FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM; UNKNOWN OR OTHER. 2023\-2026 Escape and 2025\-2026 Bronco Sport vehicles equipped with a 1.5L EcoBoost engine may require removal of the turbocharger wastegate control actuator linkage for various reasons. The Workshop Manual \(WSM\), Section 303\-04 Fuel Charging and Controls \- Turbocharger \- 1.5L EcoBoost \> Removal and Installation \> Wastegate Control Actuator Linkage service procedure has been added. In addition, the wastegate control actuator linkage rod with retaining clips \(6K682\) and actuator linkage rubber boot seal \(9E416\) have been released as lower\-level components to complete the repair without replacing the entire turbocharger wastegate control actuator assembly.
- [TSB 26\-2325](/bulletins/11037978.md), 2026-10-05, Service bulletin: EXTERIOR LIGHTING; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; UNKNOWN OR OTHER. Some of the vehicles listed in the Model statement above may exhibit a front courtesy lamp that is inoperative. This may be due to a concern with the front courtesy lamp light module.
- [SSM 55215](/bulletins/11037783.md), 2026-10-02, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; SERVICE BRAKES; UNKNOWN OR OTHER. Some 2022\-2024 Maverick hybrid vehicles may exhibit various electrical symptoms and/or a no crank/no start condition related to an intermittent 12V battery drain that has discharged the 12V battery. This may be due to the software in the anti\-lock brake system \(ABS\) module. To correct this condition, download and run the "ABS \- Anti\-lock Brake System \(ABS\) Module Software Update" and "ACCM \- Air Conditioning Control Module \(ACCM\) Software Update" applications using the latest software level of the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System \(FDRS\) scan tool. For claiming use causal part 2005 and labor operations 10654C and 12651D along with MT2005SSM up to 0.7 hours for the ABS, ACCM, PCM, and SOBDMC as needed.
- [TSB 26\-2428](/bulletins/11037776.md), 2026-10-02, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM; UNKNOWN OR OTHER; POWER TRAIN. This bulletin supersedes 25\-2326. Reason for update: update the service procedure to include the fuel tank isolation valve replacement, update the causal part number, and increase the labor time allowance to include the fuel tank isolation valve replacement. Some of the vehicles listed in the Model statement above may exhibit an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp \(MIL\) with diagnostic trouble code \(DTC\) P2450 stored in the powertrain control module \(PCM\). This may be due to the software in the PCM and/or the fuel tank isolation valve.
