Safety Recall 24S76 - Certain 2023-2024 F-150 Lightning Battery Electric Vehicles - Upper Control Arm Ball Joint Nut Replacement
Okay, so NOW the full recall has been released as of this morning (5 Feb '25). Number of vehicles went down by 2 (I assume they've already fixed those as part of the validation) to 11,291.
The date range was expanded by a day on either side of the original range, so that's now 5 November '23 to 13 February '24 inclusive.
Every one of the trucks are going to get something. Meaning when they do a torque check to find out if the nut meets the check spec...even if it passes the nuts are replaced anyway. If it doesn't pass the initial check the whole steering knuckle gets replaced.
