Ford Motor Company is recalling 231 of its 2025 F-53 and F-59 vehicles due to an incorrectly installed stop light switch. This defect can cause the exterior brake lights to stay on when they shouldn't or fail to turn on when you press the brake pedal. Dealers will replace the stop light switch in affected vehicles free of charge.
If the brake lights do not work correctly, other drivers will not know when the vehicle is slowing down, which increases the risk of a rear-end crash. Additionally, the vehicle may be shifted out of the 'park' position even if the brake pedal is not pressed, which could lead to a rollaway and a crash.
Free replacement of the stop light switch by an authorized dealer.
