  Summary

  Some 2021-2025 F-150 non-Lightning, 2023-2025 F-Super Duty, 2024-2025 Ranger, and 2025 Explorer vehicles may exhibit a perceived improper functioning fog lamp(s). Customers may describe fog lamps blinking, turning on or off, or flashing. If the vehicle is equipped with cornering lamps, this may be normal function. Under certain conditions and inputs, either lamp might turn on or off independently to aid visibility during cornering. This condition does not affect vehicle durability and no additional diagnosis or service is required for this condition at this time. For additional cornering lamp information, refer to the Owner's Manual and/or Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 417-01.

  Summary

  Some 2024-2025 Ranger vehicles may exhibit a "Check Charging System" message displayed in the instrument panel cluster (IPC) with diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) U012D, U0284, and/or U042E stored in the powertrain control module (PCM). This may be due to corrosion found in the active grille shutter lower connector (C1767). If no corrosion is found in this connector, refer to the Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 414-00 for normal diagnostics. If corrosion is found, replace the connector and active grille shutter (AGS) actuator (base part number: 10884). To aid in engineering investigation, when removing the corroded connector cut the wires about 3 inches (76 mm) from the connector to ensure adequate wire is left for analysis. If the corrosion condition is encountered, use the "Submit Global Concern Report (GCR)" link at the upper right of the Vehicle ID tab to submit a report and reference this article number in the report. For claiming, use causal part 14290 and labor operations 12650D, 12650D45, 12650D45WR, 12650D78LW, 12650D78BU, 12650D78CM, and/or 12650D78TD in Section 10 of the Service Labor Time Stand

  Summary

  Some 2024-2025 Ranger vehicles may exhibit a difficult to cycle glove compartment lock using the key. To correct this condition, insert the key into the glove compartment lock cylinder and cycle the key clockwise from the 12 o'clock position (unlocked) to the 3 o'clock position (locked) and then back to the 12 o'clock position (unlocked), 5 times. Extra force may be required during the initial clockwise key turn from the 12 o'clock position to the 3 o'clock position. This extra force will set the lock into the correct position and optimize turning efforts. For claiming, use causal part 60060T10 and claim M-time.

  Summary

  Some 2022-2025 Ford or Lincoln vehicles may exhibit DTCs B142E:78, B1432:78, and/or B1433:54 diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in the CCM. This may be due to non-factory sized tires that may cause inaccurate speedometer readings that can impact the functionality of the CCM. When a vehicle is modified in this manner, replacement or realignment of the CCM may impact the normal operation of the system and/or performance of radar and camera-based features. Repair or replacement of the CCM when a vehicle is equipped with non-factory size tires may not be warrantable and subject to chargeback.
