Summary
Certain 2021-2022 Model Year Econoline Vehicles Equipped with Dual Rear Wheels Hydroboost or Hydromax® Power Steering Pressure and Jumper Line Replacement Affected vehicles were inspected and passed inspection for inadequate connection of the Hydroboost power steering pressure and jumper lines in safety recall 22S08, before January 29, 2023. This program provides coverage to the Hydroboost power steering pressure and jumper lines should they require replacement due to inadequate connection to the brake Hydroboost unit.
•
After the parts have been inspected, they should be handled based on the guidance in the
parts status report in the Online Warranty System (Hold, Return, CORE, Scrap, etc.). Please
visit FMCDEALER > PARTS & SERVICE > WARRANTY ADMINISTRATION & WARRANTY
PARTS RETURN for the latest Immediate Scrap List information.
This process is subject to review during warranty audits for FSA repairs with a repair order
open date of March 1st, 2021, or later. Any eligible FSA claims requiring parts replacement
found not to have been inspected and signed off during a warranty audit will be subject to
chargeback and consideration for enrollment into the Dealer Incomplete Recall Repair
Process.
Note: Other approvals (electronic or handwritten) for add-on repair lines, dealer-owned vehicle
repairs, and repeat repairs do not qualify as FSA parts inspection approvals. The post-repair FSA
parts inspection process (electronic or handwritten) is independent of other warranty approval
requirements. The approval by the designated employee implies that the FSA parts were found to be
replaced and must be able to be identified on the Repair Order. If multiple FSAs require approval on a
single Repair Order, each applicable occurrence will require individual post-repair approval by the
designated employee.

also to building a community of happy, satisfied customers. To demonstrate that commitment, we are
providing a no-charge Customer Satisfaction Program for your vehicle.
Why are you
receiving this notice?
Your vehicle with the VIN above is included in this customer satisfaction
program because it passed inspection for inadequate connection of the
Hydroboost power steering pressure and jumper lines before January 29,

on the Hydroboost power steering pressure and jumper lines.
What is the effect?

above, this one-time repair offer will last through December 31, 2025.
Coverage is automatically transferred to subsequent owners.
What will Ford and

steering pressure and jumper lines and your vehicle is within the indicated
time/mileage limitations, Ford Motor Company has authorized your dealer to

charge (parts and labor). This is a one-time repair program.
How long will it take?
If the components mentioned above require replacement, the time needed
for this repair is less than one-half day. However, due to service scheduling
requirements, your dealer may need your vehicle for a longer period of time.

performing this repair.
What should you do?
You do not need to return to your dealer for this repair unless you have a
power steering line leak. Please keep this letter as a reminder of the onetime repair offer for your power steering pressure line and Hydroboost
jumper line. If the power steering pressure line and Hydroboost jumper line
should require replacement, and your vehicle is within the indicated
time/mileage limitations, contact your dealer to schedule a service
appointment for Customer Satisfaction Program 24N03. Your dealer will
replace the part at no charge.
