2018 FORD F-150Transport Canada Recall #2026288
The official notice
Defect
On certain trucks, the recall repairs completed by a Ford dealer during recall 20C03 (Transport Canada recall no. 2020-071) may not have been done correctly. As a result, a second repair is required. On certain trucks, a software problem could cause the daytime running lamps (DRLs) to remain on when switching the master lighting switch from the ''Autolamp'' position to the ''headlamp on'' position. Canadian regulations require the DRLs to turn off when the headlamps are switched on.
Safety Risk
Daytime running lamps that stay on could cause glare for oncoming drivers and increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to update the body control module software.
