Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Address Safety Concerns

NHTSA recall information includes risks that should not be ignored. A seat belt pretensioner may ignite carpet or insulation after a crash, while an engine block-heater cable can overheat or melt and create a fire risk. A transmission casting concern may allow unintended movement, and a seat recliner with reduced strength may not properly restrain an occupant. Reversed backup-camera images, daytime running lights that do not dim, and an unexpected tailgate release can also increase crash or roadway hazards. Waiting leaves a possible safety issue unresolved. Bring your truck to Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa for a VIN check and any applicable free remedy.
