This violates the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 110 and 120.

This missing information could lead to an incorrect tire or rim being installed, or incorrect tire pressure being set, on the vehicle. All of these factors increase the risk of a crash. 

The following vehicles and model years are affected by this recall:

Dealers are being advised to replace the Safety Certification Labels on affected vehicles for free. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on June 27, 2022.

Consumers can contact Ford's customer service by phone at 1-866-436-7332 for more information. Ford's number for this recall is 22C09.
