Recall (Campaign 26E04) issued July 2026 - Powertrain Control Module - Software update needed.

[Packer Bill]

It's been a couple of days...any new news on this recalled recall? I was going to schedule a dealer visit today for this on the app but it appears the Romulans cloaked it.

My Ford app still shows 0 active recalls...

Thoughts on what this new recall will fix when the Software update is installed.

Recall notice found in Ford App. today. Nothing at NHTSA, yet.

NHTSA link:
Check for your own recall here.

Haven't seen it yet in my Ford Pass App. I usually wait for a letter from Ford and then go from there.

To be fair, Ford is usually a little slow sending those letters tho. The day I had my trailer module reprogramming done, I came home and found the letter for it in the mail

I asked on another comment of yours. What "failed" on your module?

I got the campaign performed as well
Nothing failed in my module
I don't tow
It's just a campaign based on the VIN
2024 Lariat Tremor with 2.0l ecoboost

What I noticed after, my AC isn't cooling enough. I set my AC in auto to 75F before the campaign since new.
Now after the campaign I must set the AC to 71F to get the same cooling feeling! IDK if it's related or not

I may be crazy but I swear my doorbell chime is louder after the recall.

I've seen the work orders posted for 1 update show other modules that were done as required, or while hooked up and recommended also.
Could have had something else done - check that work order, or ask if the tech has the records available from Ford's tracking.

It's possible! Who knows
So far just the AC behavior I described

I will

Sorry, I missed your comment. As I was towing the trailer on the highway (trailer is three years old), a message appeared on the Driver Information screen telling me that the trailer module had failed and that I should take it to the dealer. You lose turn signals and brake light functions.
The powertrain module recall is something different - this affects vehicles with the trailer tow option. I think the repair is software as the 25 and 26 model years have different software and can be fixed OTA.

I read the post by Jhmcclos about his recall message disappearing from the ford site, so I went back see my recall info. Sure enough, my recall notice evaporated from the ford site and the ford app, too. Strange. I already have a service appointment at Autonation Ford in Littleton, CO for this coming week. I made the appointment online a week ago and left a quick question for them. I haven't heard a word out of them. Guess I'm not going to show up for my appointment. If you were informed that your maverick had a recall, better check back to see if Ford changed their mind so you don't waste your time like I did.

I couldn't find the build date, but I know that it was delivered to my dealer in Austin, TX a couple of days before Christmas, 2024.

It is an over the air update, so there is a chance everyone affected will update automatically.
If you send me your VIN I can look it up and see.

If it disappeared because it was updated OTA, wouldn't it show on the app under "software updates"? I've got my last update shown as the one I received in February.

It might.
I can check the OTA update history with a VIN.
