## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2018 F\-150 vehicles equipped with 3.5L engines.  The cylinder heads may have been machined without lubrication supply holes for the camshaft bearing journals.


## What can happen

Without a proper supply of lubrication, the engine will fail, causing a stall and increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Ford is not aware of any affected vehicles outside of dealer control.  Should owner contact subsequently be required, arrangements will be made to transport their vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to have the engine replaced.The recall began October 24, 2017.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 17S37.
