- Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\)
- Campaign number: 2025394

- Notification type: Compliance Mfr
- Units potentially affected: 6534

## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain hybrid trucks, the seat belt reminder chime may not work when you start the vehicle and your seat belt isn't buckled. Canadian regulations require both a seat belt reminder sound and visual telltale when a driver is not wearing their seat belt.

Note: This recall only affects certain hybrid trucks equipped with a 3.5 L engine.

Safety Risk:

A seat belt warning that doesn't work correctly may not remind you to buckle your seat belt. Not wearing your seat belt can increase the risk of injury in a crash.

Corrective Actions:

Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to update the audio head unit software.
