| Defect summary | Ford motor company (ford) is recalling certain model year 2017 ford f-250 sd, f-350 sd, f-450 sd, and f-550 sd trucks manufactured march 21, 2016, to august 28, 2016. The protective shield on the fuel conditioning module may have inadequate adhesion, allowing the shield to become dislodged. |
| Consequence summary | If the shield becomes dislodged, the drain valve may open resulting in a fuel leak. A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, increases the risk of a fire. Under certain conditions, significant liquid fuel on the road surface may cause a slip hazard, increasing the risk of a crash. |
| Corrective action | Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the protective shield, free of charge. The recall began november 11, 2016. Owners may contact ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 16s39. |
