## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2021\-2022 EcoSport vehicles.  The front axle half shafts may disconnect from the transmission, which can result in a loss of drive power.


## What can happen

A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.  In addition, a disconnected half shaft can result in a vehicle rollaway if the parking brake is not applied, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.


## The remedy

Dealers will inspect and replace the half shafts as necessary, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed on May 29, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 25S12.
