Ford is recalling more than 355,000 pickup trucks across the U.S. after a dashboard instrument display failure was found that may prevent drivers from seeing critical information such as vehicle speed and warning lights.
The recall affects 2025 Ford F-150 models and 2025–2026 Ford Super Duty trucks, including F-550 SD, F-450 SD, F-350 SD, and F-250 SD, according to documents from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The agency notes the instrument panel cluster (IPC) can fail at startup, leaving drivers with a blank display.
NHTSA said drivers may be unable to see safety-related gauges and warning lights, increasing crash risk. Ford has received 95 warranty claims related to the defect but is not aware of any accidents or injuries.
To fix the issue, Ford is offering a free IPC software update, which can be applied at authorised dealers or via an over-the-air update. The automaker said the over-the-air update is “more convenient for customers compared to an in-person dealer visit.” Owner notification letters with instructions will be sent soon.
The recall covers 355,656 vehicles. The affected IPC software was introduced in June 2024 and removed from production in July 2025.
Ford has issued several large recalls this year, including 694,000 Bronco Sport and Escape vehicles over a fuel injector issue and more than 850,000 vehicles for potential fuel pump failure. Kumar Galhotra, Ford’s chief operating officer, said the recalls reflect “our intensive strategy to quickly find and fix hardware and software issues and go the extra mile to help protect customers,” including enhanced safety testing.
