I just received a Carfax alert about this recall, so far my wiper motor has been working well.

I believe this recall was only for the ICE F-150s, it was a fix prior to me trading mine in. I’d be surprised if Ford didn’t include the fix on all 22 Lightning’s.

The Lightning is included. Some owners have already received the notification.

FAIL from Ford smh

Edit: oh wrong recall, ours was for the wiper arm, but the wiper motor also affected the ICE.

Here's hoping they fix the Active Air Dam errors soon!

It's been about 6 months since it launched and Ford can't even put the battery percentage on the main dash screen. I wouldn't hold your breath.

If you want to know if you are on the recall list and haven't received mail from Ford, just log in and check your account on the website - it shows up there.

I thought this was affecting the new '23 builds where there is a stop delivery order hold ?

But the build dates are from 2021 thru August 2022 ?

The Ford memo is confusing!

Well mine should be in this group too ?

I see in my USPS informed delivery notifications that a recall notice is arriving in my mailbox today, build week 6/6.

Yeah when I dropped off my Lightning yesterday for the keypad replacement they also put In the fix for the recall. But there is no fix right now.

No parts to replace is the issue ?

None, but they noted it that it needs replacement parts

Will they hold your truck until the part arrives ?

DId you get the Ford recall letter like @TaxmanHog received ?
