2021 FORD RANGERTransport Canada Recall #2021770
The official notice
Defect
On certain vehicles equipped with adaptive cruise control (ACC), there could be a problem with the front radar module. As a result, your vehicle may follow another too closely when using adaptive cruise control. Also, the pre-collision assist (PCA) system might not detect a possible crash and the application of automatic emergency braking (AEB) may be delayed.
Safety Risk
Following too closely behind another vehicle could increase the risk of a crash. An automatic emergency braking (AEB) system that doesn't work properly may not reduce the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to adjust the angle of the cruise control radar module.
