## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2022\-2024 Maverick vehicles.  The Body Control Module \(BCM\) may inadvertently deactivate one or both rear tail lights.


## What can happen

Rear tail lights that fail to illuminate can reduce the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will update the BCM software, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed May 10, 2024.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 24S24.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
