# NHTSA recall 15V175000 A recall listed here may apply to a vehicle of this year, make and model. Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle: check the VIN with the official lookups. - Published by: NHTSA \(United States\) - Campaign number: 15V175000 - Manufacturer's number: 15S09 - Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company - Reported: 2015\-03\-25 - Owners notified: 2015\-04\-22 - Component: POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE \(TCM/PCM/TECM\) - Units potentially affected: 6322 ## What is wrong Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain model year 2011\-2015 Ford F\-350, F\-450, and F\-550 trucks manufactured February 22, 2010, to January 30, 2015, and equipped with ambulance or fire engine preparation packages. The affected vehicles may detect an incorrect Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor \(EGT\) fault indicating that the vehicle is too hot, causing the engine management system to shut down the engine and prevent its immediate restart. ## What can happen Engine shut down and a subsequent cool down period may delay medical treatment or assistance to those needing it, increasing their risk of injury. ## The remedy Ford will notify owners, and dealers will update the Powertrain Control Module \(PCM\) software, free of charge. The recall began on April 22, 2015. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.
