What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Roush CleanTech, LLC (Roush) is recalling certain altered 2016-2022 Ford E350, E450, F450, F550, F53, F59, F650 and F750 trucks that were sold, or registered in Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Washington D.C., West Virginia, and Wisconsin. The zinc-plating on the fuel return line may break away when contacted by road debris, causing two dissimilar metals on the fuel line to contact each other and corrode.

The risk

A corroded fuel line can leak fuel and increase the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Dealers will replace the fuel return lines, free of charge. Interim owner notifications, informing owners of the safety risk, were mailed in August 2022. Remedy parts are expected to become available in January 2023. Owners may contact Roush's customer service at 1-800-597-6874. Roush's number for this recall is VA-J2044.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
