Manufacturer summary

Original wording in English

Some 2021 F-150 vehicles equipped with a 3.5L PowerBoost engine may experience a rough running engine during idle and an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with diagnostics trouble code (DTC) P0300, P0304, P050E and/or P2451 stored in the powertrain control module (PCM). Inform customers that Ford is developing a calibration software update for the PCM that is expected in March. Let the customer know they can continue to drive the vehicle and schedule a follow-up appointment for repair in April. Once the update becomes available, contact the customer and confirm the service appointment is going forward. Monitor OASIS for updates.

Repeated filings are grouped only when make, bulletin number, publication date and complete summary agree. Original record numbers are retained. Older publications remain available, and an explicit later version is shown when established. Pre-1994 vehicle associations are separated from default results; an unspecified year does not mean all model years apply.
