Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Ford Motor Company is recalling 65 Ranger vehicles from the 2024 model year. These vehicles contain a fuel vapor line bracket that may have insufficient clearance, leading to potential damage and fuel vapor leaks. Owners can take their vehicle to a dealer to have a tie strap installed to secure the line safely at no cost.

Risk

A fuel vapor leak can occur if the bracket damages the line; if this vapor comes into contact with an ignition source, it significantly increases the risk of a vehicle fire.

What You Should Do

  1. Check if your vehicle is a 2024 Ford Ranger and verify if it is one of the 65 units affected by contacting Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.
  2. Schedule an appointment with an authorized Ford dealer for a free inspection and repair.
  3. Dealers will inspect for a fuel vapor line bracket and install a tie strap to secure the fuel vapor line to the bracket, free of charge.
  4. Reference Ford's internal recall number 24S71 when speaking with the dealer or customer service representative.
  5. For additional questions or to check your VIN, contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov/recalls.
