Ford Recalls More Than 355,000 Trucks Over Display Failure

Ford is recalling potentially more than 355,000 pickup trucks nationwide after dashboard displays began failing, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced in a report submitted August 22.

The recall includes certain 2025 F-150 models and 2025-2026 Super Duty trucks, including certain F-550, F-450, F-350 and F-250 models, according to the NHTSA report. The instrument panel cluster can fail during startup, resulting in a blank screen that can prevent drivers from reading critical safety information and gauges, the report stated.

While Ford has not reported any accidents or injuries linked to the defect, the company received 95 warranty claims by June 26. The NHTSA warned that the failure increases crash risk since drivers cannot access essential vehicle data.

Ford will provide free software updates to fix the problem. Owners can receive the update at authorized dealerships or through an “over-the-air” download. All 355,656 vehicles covered by the recall are estimated to have the defective software, which Ford introduced in June 2024 and discontinued in July 2025, the NHTSA stated.

The dashboard failure adds to Ford’s growing list of recalls this year. The company potentially recalled more than 694,000 Bronco Sport and Escape vehicles last month for fuel injector problems and over 850,000 cars for potential fuel pump failures, according to separate NHTSA reports.

Ford’s Chief Operating Officer Kumar Galhotra addressed the increase in recalls earlier this month, writing in a company blog that it “reflects our intensive strategy to quickly find and fix hardware and software issues and go the extra mile to help protect customers.” He cited heightened safety testing as part of Ford’s approach to identifying issues.

The Daily Caller reached out to Ford for comment but has not heard back as of publication.

Ford told The Associated Press that an over-the-air software update is “more convenient for customers compared to an in-person dealer visit.”
