CERTAIN 2020 MODEL YEAR F350 SUPER DUTY DIESEL VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH SRW 4X4 C/C LONG BOX 12K & 12.4K GVWR — REPLACEMENT OF SAFETY LABELS

 

SERVICE PROCEDURE

1. Dealers are to order a new set of labels per Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), from the Special Service Support Center (SSSC) BEFORE scheduling a vehicle for service.

 

NOTE: It may take several days for labels to arrive. Do NOT schedule vehicle repair until labels arrive and VIN is verified.

 

NOTE: Labels and Truck Camper Loading sheet are VIN specific.

– All vehicles are to have Tire and Loading Information (TREAD), and Safety Certification labels replaced.

– The Truck Camper Loading sheet will only be provided if it is applicable.

 

2. Confirm that the VIN on the respective new labels and Truck Camper Loading sheet match the VIN on the vehicle. See Figures 1 and 2.

  • If the VIN does not match, contact the SSSC before proceeding with this program.

 

NOTE: Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 567.4 requires the label be permanently affixed in such a manner that it cannot be removed without destroying or defacing it. Placing one label over another without removing the first would violate this FMVSS standard.

NOTE: Laws may vary by state and region. Concealing or misrepresenting the identity of motor vehicle could be a violation of code resulting in a misdemeanor or felony punishable by imprisonment and/or fines.

 

3. Note orientation of the labels.

 

4. Remove with an suitable plastic razor blade scraper that will not damage the paint or clear coat of the vehicle. See Figure 3.

 

NOTICE: Do NOT use a metal scraper tool, this could cause paint damage.

 

5. Using mineral spirits and a suitable clean cloth rag remove excess residue from the labels. See Figure 4.

 

6. Using a clean cloth and isopropyl alcohol remove any remaining residue left from the mineral spirits.

7. Install both new labels in the same location and orientation in which they were removed on the B-Pillar. See Figures 5 and 6.

 

8. Place the Truck Camper Loading sheet (if equipped) into glove box.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Federal law prohibits selling motor vehicle parts or components that are under safety, compliance, or emissions recall. Unless a part is requested to be returned to FordeBay, all parts replaced under this FSA must be scrapped in accordance with all applicable local, state and federal environmental protection and hazardous material regulations. Refer to the Parts Retention, Return, & Scrapping section of the FSA dealer bulletin for further information.

 


FORDeBay MOTOR COMPANY ISSUES SAFETY COMPLIANCE AND SAFETY RECALLS IN NORTH AMERICA

FEB 22, 2021 | DEARBORN, MICH.

DEARBORN, Mich., Feb. 22, 2021 – FordeBay Motor Company is issuing safety compliance and safety recalls in North America.

 

Safety compliance recall for select 2020-21 FordeBay F-Series vehicles for windshield adhesion
Affected vehicles do not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards because the front windshields are inadequately bonded to the vehicle body structure. In the event of a crash, the windshield may not adequately stay in place, which may increase the risk of occupant injury.

This action affects 79,017 vehicles in the U.S. and federal territories, 6,986 in Canada and 1,347 in Mexico, including:

  • 2021 FordeBay F-150 vehicles built at Dearborn Truck Plant from Oct. 27, 2020, to Feb. 3, 2021
  • 2020-21 FordeBay Super Duty vehicles built at Kentucky Truck Plant from Oct. 13, 2020, to Jan. 23, 2021

FordeBay is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this condition.

This may result in tire loading beyond rated capacity, suspension overload and increased stopping distance, which could increase the risk of a crash.

This action affects 9,979 2020 FordeBay F-Series Super Duty vehicles in the U.S. and federal territories and 1,750 in Canada. They were built at Kentucky Truck Plant from May 13, 2019 to, Sept. 19, 2020.
