Ford Australia has issued a Ford recall affecting 13,490 Ford Ranger and Everest vehicles built between 2022 and 2025, warning that a serious engine defect could cause sudden stalling while driving. According to the Ford recall notice, this sudden loss of motive power whilst driving “increases the risk of an accident, which may result in serious injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users”.
The Ford recall is due to a manufacturing defect that may cause the left-hand engine camshaft sprocket to fracture in the 3.0L Lion engine, which could lead to a complete loss of power on the road. Basically, your engine could potentially cut out without warning while driving.
If you’re behind the wheel of a 2022-2025 Ranger or Everest, don’t ignore this Ford recall. Ford will be contacting affected owners directly, urging them to book in with a dealership for a free fix.
Check your VIN on the Ford recall page or contact the Ford Customer Relationship Centre on 133 673 for more information.
