If you drive these Ford SUVs or trucks, bring them to your dealer to be sure the battery is working properly, the National Highway and Transportation Safety Administration said.

Ford recalled hundreds of thousands of vehicles because of concerns over battery failure issues, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said.

Subject vehicles were produced for the 2021 through 2023 model years for the US market, with the cut-off date being October 20, 2022

The batteries were made in China under the Camel Battery brand and were used between February 5, 2020, and Oct. 20, 2022.

The batteries in the vehicles have internal defects that could cause them to lose power unexpectedly, or fail to start.

The problem is due to a manufacturing defect in 12-volt starter batteries used in these vehicles. To fix the problem, Ford dealerships will replace them with new absorbed glass mat (AGM) batteries, free of charge. Owners who already paid for new batteries out of pocket will be eligible for reimbursement from the automaker.
