Recall - Engine Cup Plug Inspection

[16colt22]

Has anyone had this recall performed yet? My 2024 is at the dealership now. They did find a leak and are now going to replace the plug. At one point they told me they would have to pull the engine, now they are not. Hope they fix it right!

I drop my '24 off at the dealership on Thursday. Hope all goes well.

When and how did you receive the recall notice? Though Ford Pass? I haven't received the new Ford Pass update v522.0 yet.

I first received the recall notice through the mail at the end of May, and then saw it in the Ford Pass afterwards.

Just FYI for folks who may be concerned upon reading this thread, this recall relates to a limited number of 3.5EB F150's built between 9/12/2024 - 1/30/2025 (not sequential VINs). The issue is an engine assembly defect (misaligned "cup plug" in the block), not anything relating to inherent design.

A small population of Expedition and Navigators is also affected.

Got my truck back yesterday after the inspection. All good, cup plugs aligned as designed.

Dealership still has my truck. It’s been two weeks now. They are saying it will be ready Monday or Tuesday.
…lifting off the entire cab to change the bad plug.
