Ford shipped with the European brake reservoir pictogram cap label and the European English language owner's manual kits.
The short version
Ford Motor Company reported a problem with the service brakes. Here is what owners need to know.
These vehicles were shipped with the European brake reservoir pictogram cap label and the European English language owner's manual kits. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems."
Owners could be confused by the incorrect label on the brake fluid cap, potentially causing them to replace the brake fluid with an incorrect fluid which could affect brake performance, increasing the risk of a crash.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake fluid cap and owner's manual kit, free of charge.
