Summary

Ford Motor Company is recalling 321 of its 2023 F-150 vehicles because the top cover of the passenger-side instrument panel may interfere with the air bag during a crash. This defect can prevent the air bag from deploying as designed, which may fail to protect the passenger during a collision. Ford dealers will replace the instrument panel top cover at no cost to owners.

Risk

If the instrument panel top cover prevents the air bag from deploying correctly during a crash, the passenger may not be properly protected, significantly increasing the risk of serious injury.
