Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Address the Safety Risk

NHTSA identifies one Structure recall for certain 2017-2018 Ford GT vehicles. The rear wing valve block may leak hydraulic fluid, and that fluid can raise the risk of a fire if it encounters an ignition source. Waiting to confirm recall status leaves an important manufacturer safety remedy unresolved. Ford's remedy uses a software update for the fully integrated vehicle controller to eliminate the possibility of excessive pressure in the valve block assembly. Depending on the vehicle, technicians may also install a rear wing hydraulic check valve and replace the o-rings and filter if needed. Prompt service offers a clear, reassuring path forward.
