Defect summary	Ford motor company (ford) is recalling certain model year 2014 ford f-150 and flex vehicles manufactured march 1, 2014, to may 31, 2014. The affected vehicles were manufactured with a reduced clearance between the seat frame and the seat track assembly. This can cause the occupant classification system (ocs) to inaccurately register passenger weight and improperly suppress the passenger front airbag when the passenger seat is occupied by an adult passenger. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) no. 208, "occupant crash protection."
Consequence summary	Improper suppression of the passenger airbag increases the risk of an injury to the seat occupant in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the front passenger airbag.
Corrective action	Ford will notify owners, and dealers will widen the gap between the seat frame and seat track assembly and recalibrate the seat ocs, free of charge. The recall began november 25, 2014. Owners may contact ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 14c10.
Recall notes	Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153).
