Emissions Recall 25E09 and Customer Satisfaction Program 25N14
Mr. John Sample
123 Main Street
Anywhere, USA 12345
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): 12345678901234567
Ford Motor Company values you as a customer and is committed to vehicle quality and preserving the
environment. Therefore, we are voluntarily recalling your vehicle, with the VIN shown above. Your
vehicle may be releasing air pollutants that exceed applicable emissions standards.
Why are you
receiving this notice?

According to Ford Motor Company records, the remedy software for
Emissions Recall 22E02 was not installed correctly during a prior dealership
visit, and the underlying condition being addressed in Emissions Recall
22E02 still exists.

What is the issue?

During initial vehicle production, the Particulate Matter sensor (PM) was not
installed on your vehicle due to a component supply shortage. Additionally,
the Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) sensor preheat is not functional in the powertrain
calibration. Under certain conditions, this can lead to thermal shock and
sudden failure of the NOx sensor.

What is the effect?

If you do not have the PM sensor installed, the vehicle's Onboard
Diagnostics (OBD) system will not be able to detect or alert you of certain
performance faults in the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). A NOx sensor
failure will result in the illumination of the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
and potentially higher tailpipe emissions.

What will Ford and
your dealer do?

Parts and software are available to repair your vehicle. Ford Motor
Company has authorized your dealer to install the PM sensor and
reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) with a calibration update
free of charge (parts and labor). The new calibration also includes a
software update that improves the accuracy and durability of the OBD
system and its components (including the NOx sensor), to ensure certain
monitors run when they should, as required by regulation. Finally, the
update also enables the NOx sensor to preheat.
You are eligible for this free service even if you previously used non-FordeBay logo
parts to service your vehicle or had your vehicle serviced at a non-Ford
dealer.
If you do not have this service performed:
• Your vehicle may not pass emission or smog tests that may be
required in your area.
• Your State Department of Motor Vehicles may not renew your
vehicle registration.
Note: The California Air Resources Board requires that we notify you that
your vehicle "cannot be operated in the State of California if the owner fails
to get the recall once available".
