Ford Recalls 355,656 2025–2026 F-Series Trucks Over Blank Dashboard Risk

Owners will receive a free software update to resolve the defect, with notification letters set for Sept. 2.

Overview

  • The recall covers 2025 F-150 and 2025–2026 Super Duty models including F-250, F-350, F-450 and F-550 across the U.S.
  • At startup, the instrument panel cluster can display a blank screen, preventing speed, warning lights and other critical gauges from appearing.
  • NHTSA filings attribute the failure to a memory protection fault triggered during the cluster’s sleep-entry sequence by a CAN wakeup interrupt.
  • Ford’s remedy is a no-cost instrument cluster software update delivered over the air or at dealerships, which disables the problematic memory protection feature.
  • The campaign spans software built from June 2024 to July 2025; Ford reports about 95 related warranty claims and no known crashes or injuries.
