REASON FOR THIS COMPLIANCE RECALL All of the affected vehicles may not conform to the requirements specified by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 208 Occupant Crash Protection, and – (FMVSS) 210 Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages.

Oversized extruded bolt holes may decrease the strength of the fastener joint causing inadequate attachment of the rear seat belts during loading. An inadequately attached rear seat belt could detach under loading and may not adequately restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. SERVICE ACTION Before demonstrating or delivering any new in-stock vehicles involved in this recall, dealers are to repair both LH and RH rear buckle attachments with a stainless-steel thread repair insert M12 X 1.75 X 12mm long. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner. OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of January 31, 2022. 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.

A complete Dealer Bulletin will be provided to dealers the week of January 3rd, 2022 when it is anticipated that parts ordering information and repair instructions will be available to support this compliance recall. IMPORTANT: Dealers should open a Repair Order (RO) only when a full dealer bulletin is published. Opening an RO against an Awareness or Advance Notice will result in warranty rejections against a recall. CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION Owners of record will be notified via first-class mail after repair instructions and parts ordering information have been provided to dealers. 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 prior to delivery.  Copyright 2021 Ford Motor Company QUESTIONS & ASSISTANCE For questions and assistance, contact the Special Service Support Center (SSSC) via the SSSC Web Contact Site.

The Ford process is capable of tracing rear floor assembly production to the vehicle in which the rear floor assembly is installed. Affected vehicles are equipped with suspect rear floor assemblies. These vehicles are not produced in VIN order. Information as to the applicability of this action to specific vehicles can best be obtained by either calling Ford’s toll-free line (1-866-436-7332) or by contacting a local Ford or Lincoln dealer who can obtain specific information regarding the vehicles from the Ford On-line Automotive Service Information System (OASIS) database. Ford Maverick Vehicles – 318 Production Dates : OCT 06, 2021 – NOV 20, 2021 VIN Range 1 : Begin : NR End : NR Not sequential Description of Noncompliance : Description of the Noncompliance : Rear floor assemblies were produced with tapping plates that may have oversized extruded bolt holes used for attaching the rear seat belt buckles. Oversized extruded bolt holes may decrease the strength of the fastener joint causing inadequate attachment of the rear seat belts during loading. Vehicles with suspect rear floor assemblies may not comply to FMVSS 208 and FMVSS 210. FMVSS 1 : 208 – Occupant crash protection FMVSS 2 : 210 – Seat belt assembly anchorages Description of the Safety Risk : Improperly manufactured seat belt anchorages could detach under loading and may not adequately restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Description of the Cause : Tier 2 supplier produced tapping plates with extruded bolt holes that were not within specification and may reduce strength of seat belt anchorage. Identification of Any Warning that can Occur : None. Involved Components : Part 573 Safety Recall Report 21V-979 Page 3 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Component Name 1 : Rear Floor Assembly Component Description : Rear Floor Assembly Component Part Number : NZ6B-E11215-A/C/D Component Name 2 : Rear Floor Assembly Component Description : Rear Floor Assembly Component Part Number : LJ9B-R11215-AN Supplier Identification : Component Manufacturer Name : Autotek Address : TEOLOYUCAN KM 25 NAVE 1 CUAUTITLAN IZCALLI Foreign States 54713 Country : Mexico Chronology : In October, 2021, Cuautitlan Stamping and Assembly Plant (CSAP) & Hermosillo Stamping and Assembly Plant (HSAP) experienced rear seat belt buckle attachments that were not achieving the specified installation torque and exhibited stripped threads. On October 20, 2021, the assembly plants notified Supplier Technical Assistance and Engineering of the concern. It was determined that a common Tier 2 (L&W) tapping plate component is used to produce rear floor assemblies at Magna-Autotek for CSAP and Magna-Sonora for HSAP. Investigation of the tapping plate produced by the Tier 2 identified a larger than specification bolt hole extrusion internal diameter that was not detected and passed through to the two Tier 1 sites and subsequently to Ford assembly plants. On November 9th, 2021, Critical Concern Review Group (CCRG) opened an investigation. The investigation determined one suspect lot containing 33,836 suspect components was produced on July 23, 2021 by the Tier 2 supplier. The suspect vehicle population was determined by reviewing the Tier 1 and Tier 2 supplier records, developing a joint torque trace acceptance criteria, and reviewing fastener torque traces at CSAP and HSAP for each vehicle produced during the suspect window. On December 09, 2021, Ford’s Field Review Committee reviewed the concern and approved a field action. Part 573 Safety Recall Report 21V-979 Page 4 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Ford is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition. Description of Remedy : Description of Remedy Program : Owners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to have the rear seat belt buckle attachments repaired.
