What is wrong
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2016 Ford F-650 and F-750 trucks manufactured April 15, 2015, to December 15, 2015, and equipped with rear air suspension. In the affected vehicles, the rear brake hoses may contact and chafe on the rear axle housing while driving.
What can happen
A chafed rear brake line may result in an air leak, reducing the rear braking ability and increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will install revised rear brake air chambers and replace any damaged rear air brake lines, free of charge. The recall began on February 9, 2016. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 15S38.
