What is wrong
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Transit vehicles. The heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system's controls, including those for defog and defrost, may become inoperative.
The risk
Loss of the ability to control the defrost or defog function decreases the driver's visibility under certain driving conditions, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will update the remote climate control module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on November 11, 2022. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-[removed]. Ford's number for this recall is 22S65.
Notes from the manufacturer
