2022 Ford F-150 Parking Light Flickering Defect Recall

Ford is recalling 2022 F-150 trucks and 2022-2023 Bronco Sport vehicles due to a lighting control module defect causing parking light flickering when headlights are activated. The flickering reduces visibility and increases crash risk.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is a functional safety defect affecting exterior lighting compliance with FMVSS 108, and flickering could reduce visibility and increase crash risk. However, no injuries or deaths have been reported, and the hazard is theoretical rather than manifested.
