2026 Ford Recall List Summary: Involving 9.8 Million Vehicles
Popular Models Included
Attention Ford and Lincoln owners. As of May 5, 2026, the Ford brand, known as the "Blue Oval," has issued 34 recalls this year, affecting 9,812,890 vehicles. While the number of recalls is staggering, Ford states this reflects its "accelerated strategy to quickly identify and fix issues," aiming to enhance safety.
The largest recall involves 4.4 million pickup trucks (including the popular F-Series), primarily due to a trailer software malfunction. The good news is that this issue can be fixed via over-the-air (OTA) updates without a dealership visit. Below is the complete recall list for the first five months of the year.

: This is absolutely my last time buying a Ford 🥲🥲 这绝对是我最后一次买福特了🥲🥲
: Ford's quality is generally average for the industry. I just bought a Mustang Mach-E, and it's had various minor issues from day one. No major problems so far, but I still like Ford. 福特的质量就是属于行业中的一般水平 我刚买的野马mach e 从第一天就有各种小毛病 目前还没遇到大问题 不过我还是挺喜欢福特
: I feel the same. Ford has let me down countless times, but I still treat the Explorer like my first love. I'm a three-generation Explorer owner: 2015 XLT, 2018 Limited, 2022 Limited. Now I'm back to endless car repairs again... ╮(╯_╰)╭ Every day, I'm either fixing the car or on my way to get it fixed. 我也是，福特虐我千百遍，我待探险者如初恋。我是三代探险者的车主。2015xlt 2018 limited 2022 limited, 现在又开始无休止的修车了。。。╮(╯_╰)╭每天不是在修车就是去修车的路上
: I had a 2017 high-end 4WD V6 Explorer, a great car with comfortable seats and plenty of space. Even after 7 years, the chassis was still solid. It was recalled a few times, but inspections showed my car had no issues. Then in 2024, it got totaled in a crash. The new version at the same price only comes with a rear-wheel-drive 4-cylinder, and the STI trim with the same specs as the 2017 model costs twice as much. Not worth it, I'll pass. 有过17年的高配四驱6缸探险者，好车，座椅舒服，宽敞，7年了底盘还是很整。recall过几次，检测我的车都没问题。结果24年撞烂了，新版本同等价格下只有后驱4缸，和17年的同等配置STI价格翻了一倍。不要了，划不来。
: It's Ford again. 又是福特
: The Ford of the past wasn't like this... 以前的福特不是这样的...
: As a three-generation Explorer owner, I swear this is absolutely my last Ford. Every day, I'm either getting the car repaired or on my way to get it repaired. Right now, the car is still at the Ford service center—it's been 27 days already. 作为三代探险者车主 我发誓这绝对是我最后一辆福特了 每天不是在修车就是去修车的路上 现在车子还在福特维修 已经27天了
回复 @好拉西拉好西 : huh? I've never been comfortable with any car I've owned in the past three years... let alone 20 years... In 2015, 2018, and 2022, I basically replaced my car every three years. Once the original warranty expired, I'd get a new one. huh? 载我的三年都没舒服过，，，还20年，，，，2015 2018 2022 我几乎每三年换一次车，原厂保险过期了就换新的了
: What more could you ask for from a 2002-2005 car? Ford has served you well for 20 years. 2002-2005年的车还要什么自行车？福特载你20年已经很不错了
