Initially received an alert on my Ford pass app there was a recall to reprogram the integrated trailer relay module which said to wait for a letter of the recall notice. Received the letter yesterday and called for an appointment. They got me in next day with their Mobile service.

FYI - Several months ago, was told the 4k towing recall was "on hold" due to issues with the display (as in the gain adjustment would no longer show).

Late last week, I checked again, and they said it was 'off hold' and they could now order the part needed (used to be just a software update).

Now scheduled to get it in to be fixed. fingers crossed they have it right this time :)

My XLT AWD 4K Tow Maverick is due at the dealership this week. About two weeks ago it was showing the recall for the 4K tow. I already notified the dealer to fix before I pick it up.
When I look on Ford.com and the Ford App shows no recalls. Is Ford doing the recall electronically now.
Of course I will be asking when I get the call to pick it up. Just curious 😗

The recall for my Maverick in regard to trailer brakes and running lights not working was they said the some of the wiring to the plug was missing. I took it in, and they said the wires were there and the simulator showed it was working-not the case. I took it back and they found that the 5-pin plug adapter (left side of plug) does not have pins that plug into adapter. Another words the wiring to the plug is wrong. It works fine on all other trucks. The problem has been identified and they are notifying the regional ford engineer. The work around may be to take a plug from an F250 and rewire that so the standard universal adapter trailer plug will work. Ford has not adapter for the existing trailer plug.

Just had my recall done onsite this week, poor tech was in 110 heat only to NOT find the correct wiring also (at least he was in the shade). Took him just under 4 hours because he was on the phone with factory reps trying to figure out how to rewire it, then document for Ford so they can streamline the repair.

Wow that's insane. So what's the next step for you, do they have to come back and do the actual patch?

Ford authorized the tech to take power from another source in the gang connection box (under the air filter). So now it's testing good to the rear connection.
