Safety Recall 20S56
Certain 2019 Model Year Super Duty Vehicles
Dana Axle Tube Weld
AFFECTED VEHICLES
| Vehicle | Model Year | Assembly Plant | Build Dates |
| Super Duty | 2019 | Kentucky Truck Plant | August 24, 2019 through September 9, 2019 |
Affected vehicles are identified in OASIS and FSA VIN Lists.
REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL
In some of the affected vehicles, the front mono-beam axle may have been improperly welded. This may allow the yoke to rotate on the axle under hard braking conditions, and potentially separate from the axle tube. Customers may experience a loud popping noise, steering effects, and potential loss of steering control, increasing the risk of an injury or a crash.
SERVICE ACTION
Before demonstrating or delivering any new in-stock vehicles involved in this recall, dealers are to inspect the weld and contact the Special Service Support Center (SSSC) if inspection does not pass. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner. Ford believes that this defect will be present in less than 1% of the vehicles inspected.
OWNER NOTIFICATION AND MAILING SCHEDULE
Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of October 12, 2020. Dealers should repair any affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter.
PLEASE NOTE:
Federal law requires dealers to complete this recall service before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a dealer could result in a civil penalty of up to $21,000 per vehicle. Correct all vehicles in your new vehicle inventory before delivery.

FORD MOTOR COMPANY ISSUES ONE SAFETY COMPLIANCE RECALL AND TWO SAFETY RECALLS IN NORTH AMERICA
DEARBORN, Mich., Sept. 30, 2020 – Ford Motor Company is issuing one safety compliance recall and two safety recalls in North America.
Safety compliance recall for multiple 2020 model year vehicles for intermittent rearview camera operation
Affected vehicles have insufficient electrical conductivity within the printed circuit board internal to the camera. A rearview camera that intermittently displays a blank or distorted image would not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and requires corrective action by the manufacturer.
Ford is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition.
This action affects 620,246 vehicles in the U.S. and federal territories, 76,566 in Canada and 4,302 in Mexico.
Affected 2020 vehicles include:
- Ford F-150 vehicles built at Dearborn Assembly Plant from Oct. 26, 2019, to May 18, 2020, and Kansas City Assembly Plant from Nov. 2, 2019, to May 18, 2020
- Ford Super Duty vehicles built at Kentucky Truck Plant from Nov. 3, 2019, to May 18, 2020, and Ohio Assembly Plant from Oct. 30, 2019, to May 18, 2020
- Ford Expedition vehicles built at Kentucky Truck Plant from Oct. 30, 2019, to June 22, 2020
- Ford Escape vehicles built at Louisville Assembly Plant from Nov. 5, 2019, to May 18, 2020 and Lincoln Corsair vehicles built there from Nov. 14, 2019, to May 18, 2020
- Ford Edge vehicles built at Oakville Assembly Plant from Nov. 13, 2019, to May 26, 2020, and Lincoln MKX and Nautilus vehicles built there from Nov. 21, 2019, to May 26, 2020
Dealers will replace the rearview camera. Official notification to dealers and customers will begin Nov. 7. The Ford reference number for this recall is 20C19.
Safety recall for select 2020 Ford Mustang vehicles
Affected vehicles are equipped with a brake pedal bracket that could fracture during sudden stopping. During a sudden stop, the driver may experience a loss of primary braking capability that could increase the risk of an accident.
Ford is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition.
This action affects 38,005 vehicles in the U.S. and federal territories, 2,251 in Canada and 322 in Mexico. Affected vehicles were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant from March 4, 2019, to Aug. 13, 2020.
Dealers will replace the brake pedal bracket assembly. The Ford reference number for this recall is 20S52.
Safety recall for select 2019 Ford F-Series Super Duty vehicles
Affected F-250 and F-350 vehicles are equipped with front axles that may contain a wheel end yoke that was not properly welded to the axle tube end. An improperly welded attachment may cause steering effects that could impact vehicle control. This may include pulling to the right or left, misalignment of the steering wheel or change in steering sensitivity that could affect the response of the vehicle to driver input during a hard-braking event, increasing risk of a crash.
Ford is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition.
This action affects 9,628 vehicles in the U.S. and federal territories and 961 in Canada. Affected vehicles were built at Kentucky Truck Plant from Aug. 24 to Oct. 16, 2019.
Dealers will replace the axle assembly if the weld is found to be inaccurately located. The Ford reference number for this recall is 20S56.
September 23, 2020
Subject: Ford Motor Company (Ford) Recall No. 20S56 – certain 2019 model year Ford FSuper Duty 4×4 Vehicles – Front Axle Tube Yoke Weld Location.
Chronology
January – February 2020
A report of a steering pull event occurring immediately after a hard braking application on a vehicle with less than 600 miles was brought to Ford’s Critical Concern Review Group (CCRG) for review. Analysis of the vehicle’s front axle had found that the left-hand side axle yoke had rotated relative to the axle tube due to an improper weld. A review of Ford’s data systems found no similar reports. A review of the axle supplier’s production records was undertaken. Supplier records could not verify proper handling and quarantine of non-conforming parts. It was unclear whether any additional suspect axles had been produced without being properly quarantined. The CCRG requested on-going monitoring of field data to identify any similar occurrences while other teams worked with the supplier.
March 2020 – August 2020
Ford’s Supplier Technical Assistance group (STA) continued to review supplier records for parts sequencing. Analysis of the production control process found inconsistencies with adherence to set-up part handling requirements. Review of the potential vehicle implications for an improperly welded axle yoke attachment found the most likely effect to be a steering pull, though yoke detachment from the axle could not be ruled out. No additional field reports of axle yoke-to-tube rotation or inaccurately located welds were received.
September 2020
A second field report pertaining to an improperly welded axle yoke attachment was received. Similar to the first report, the driver experienced a steering pull during a hard braking event. Analysis found the left-hand side axle yoke had rotated relative to the axle tube due to an inaccurately located weld. This axle had been produced during the suspect timeframe consistent with the first report. It remains unclear whether additional suspect axles had been produced and not properly quarantined.
On September 16, 2020, Ford’s Field Review Committee reviewed the concern and approved a field action.
Ford is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition.
