2006 Ford LCF recalls
Trailer hitches
NHTSA campaign 08V344000 · reported July 28, 2008 · KNAPHEIDE MANUFACTURING COMPANY · 108 vehicles potentially affected
The problem
Knapheide is recalling 108 my 2006-2008 pro series truck beds equipped with an icc bumper which included a provision for a ball hitch. There may be an insufficient weld attaching the hitch channel to the supporting structure.
The risk
This could result in bending of the hitch channel or the hitch could be pulled off the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Knapheide will offer two remedies to its customers: (1) for those customers who do not use the hitch, the hitch will be removed from the truck bed and replaced with an icc bumper; or (2) for those customers who need a hitch, a receiver hitch assembly will be added to the existing hitch assembly and all suspect weld joints will be re welded. The recall began on august 15, 2008. Owners may contact knapheide at 1-877-473-5763.
Engine and engine cooling: engine, diesel
NHTSA campaign 06V471000 · reported December 12, 2006 · FORD MOTOR COMPANY · 5,028 vehicles potentially affected
The problem
On certain low cab forward chassis trucks, the unsealed injection pressure regulator connector is exposed to the outside environment due to its location on the back of the engine and the engine's location in the vehicle. The connector has a heat insulation sleeve that may retain water around the connector.
The risk
Over time, the collected water may potentially corrode the connector leads resulting in various engine performance concerns including; running rough, difficult or unable to be started, or engine stall increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the injection pressure regulator connector, inspect for corrosion, and replace the heat insulation. If corrosion is present, the connector will be replaced. If corrosion is not present, dielectric grease will be applied free of charge. The recall began on february 13, 2007. Owners may contact ford at 1-800-392-3673.
