Fox Factory, Inc. is recalling approximately 1,578 vehicles, including 2021-2023 Jeep Wrangler, Gladiator, RAM 1500, 2500, and Ford F-150, F-250, and F-350 models equipped with Warn winches and wireless remotes. Water can leak into the handheld remote control and corrode the internal circuit board, which can cause the winch to start operating on its own without user input. Owners are being advised to inspect their remotes and disable the wireless function to prevent unintended operation; Fox Factory will provide a free replacement if corrosion is found.
If the winch operates unintentionally due to a corroded circuit board, it can lead to unexpected movement of the cable or vehicle, significantly increasing the risk of serious injury to bystanders or the operator.
You have 2 options:
