The rear axle hub bolt may fatigue and break, which can result in damage to the axle hub splines. Damaged axle hub splines can result in a vehicle roll away when the vehicle is in park without the parking brake applied, or cause a loss of drive power. Both of these conditions can increase the risk of a crash. If you own a 2021-2023 Ford F-150 be sure to consult the [NHTSA recalls portion of the website]() and type in the specific VIN of your truck to see if this current recall applies to your vehicle. The remedy is currently under development. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer for an interim repair if they experience symptoms related to rear axle bolt breakage, such as a clicking or rattling noise. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed January 29, 2024. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford’s number for this recall is 23S65. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov. ## **Ford F-150 recall information:** **NHTSA Campaign Number:**23V896000 **Manufacturer** Ford Motor Company **Components** POWER TRAIN **Potential Number of Units Affected**112,965 *Editor’s note: This information was copied directly from the NHTSA website.
