⚠️ What's wrong
Ford is recalling certain model year 2012 F-650 and F-750 vehicles manufactured from february 1, 2012 through march 16, 2012. The clear and black primer may be missing on certain windshields which may result in an insufficient bond between the glass and cab structure.
💥 The risk
An insufficient bond may result in a separation of the windshield from the cab, increasing the risk of personal injury or death.
🔧 The fix
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will remove and inspect the windshield for urethane adhesion, and replace or reinstall the windshield as required, free of charge. The recall began on july 31, 2012. Owners may contact ford at 1-866-436-7332.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
