The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Plain-English summary

Ford Motor Company is recalling certain 2022-2025 E-Transit vehicles. The defect involves the left rear axle half shaft, which may partially disengage from the power drive unit. This condition can result in a loss of drive power.
