What is wrong
On certain vehicles, hydraulic fluid could leak from the rear wing control system and onto the exhaust. A hydraulic fluid leak onto a hot exhaust surface could increase the risk of a fire, causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update the Vehicle Dynamics Control Module with new software which would eliminate the possibility of excessive pressure in the rear wing valve block assembly. Vehicles that were not built with a hydraulic check valve and filter will be fitted with the hardware, along with hydraulic pump O-rings, if needed.

Bulletins for the same vehicles and component
| SSM 51536 | 2023-05-04. Service bulletin. For 2000-2024 Ford and Lincoln vehicles, swapping a module from a vehicle for diagnosis purposes is likely to cause errors and is not recommended. It is also not recommended to order a replacement module using a vehicle identification number (VIN) from a different vehicle. Most modules on these affected vehicles are VIN/vehicle specific and hardware variations between modules do exist. Swapping a module from a vehicle or ordering a module using a different vehicle/VIN can cause ineffective repairs and additional vehicle down time. Make sure all appropriate Workshop Manual (WSM) procedures are followed when diagnosing the condition prior to all module replacements and only order modules using the correct VIN. |
