## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2024 F\-150 vehicles.  The steering gear assembly may have been assembled with an incorrect rack, which can cause the gears to fracture.


## What can happen

## The remedy

Dealers will replace the steering gear assembly, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed February 19, 2025.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 25S04.
