Defect description

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2011-2014 Ford F-59 commercial chassis vehicles manufactured December 17, 2009, to April 30, 2014. Corrosive environments, such as water mixed with road salt, may cause a short circuit between the electrical junction block and the mounting bracket/frame.

Safety risk

A short circuit may result in a fire.

Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-800-392-3673. Ford's number for this recall is 14S11.
