noise from the front audio speakers that changes with engine RPM. This may be due to a software concern with the active noise cancellation system. Replacement of audio system components will not resolve this condition. Advise customers that engineering is currently investigating and developing a software solution that is expected by the end of Q1 2027.<br/ ><br /> If experienced, customers can temporarily clear the abnormal noise condition by stopping the vehicle in a safe location, placing the transmission in park, then pressing the audio volume control/power button 5 times until the vehicle center screen begins to reboot. The condition should also be temporarily resolved after parking the vehicle with the ignition off, doors locked, and keys moved more than 15 feet away from the vehicle allowing all systems to go to sleep for at least 15 minutes.<br/ ><br /> If a vehicle exhibits this condition, click on the "Submit Global Concern Report (GCR)" link at the upper right of the Professi

BYBAL) may exhibit a concern where the instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays "Seat Cannot Lock Do Not Use" for one or both second row seats. This message can appear if the seat control module-J (SCMJ) is offline. If the Ford Diagnostic Repair System (FDRS) shows the SCMJ offline during a network test, determine if a battery disconnect/connect restores SCMJ communication. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 414-01. If not, diagnose communication faults referring to WSM, Section 418-00A.<br /><br /> If no communication faults are present but seat cannot lock warnings occur, engineering seeks feedback on latch sensor circuit voltage while the concern is present. Access (but do not disconnect) connectors C3136/C3135 under the affected second row seat(s). Using a multimeter, connect negative lead to body ground. Using a flex probe or similar, back probe terminals 2 and 22 on C3135 and record the voltage. Back probe terminals 8 and 23 on C3136 and record the voltage.

the power running boards are unable to deploy or retract with a "Power Running Board Fault" message in the instrument panel cluster (IPC). Diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) C1008:15 and/or C1009:15 may be stored in the driver seat module (DSM). DTC U0208 and/or U0244 may also be stored in various other modules. Other DSM functions may be affected such as heated/cooled/memory seats. This may be due to the software in the DSM.<br /><br /> If the DSM does not respond during a network test, press the power seat adjustment switch then re-run the network test to see if DSM communication is restored. Engineering requires feedback for this action. Submit a Global Concern Report (GCR) indicating if DSM communication was restored after actuating the power seat adjustment switch, noting the DTCs present. To submit a report, click on the "Submit Global Concern Report (GCR)" link at the upper right of the Professional Technician System (PTS) Vehicle ID screen (vehicle identification number VIN requi

the power running boards are unable to deploy or retract when entering or exiting the vehicle with a "Power Running Board Fault" message in the instrument panel cluster (IPC). This may be due to the software in the driver front seat module (DSM). Replacing components and reprogramming software will not resolve this issue. Inform customers that engineering is currently working on a software solution for this condition that is expected to be available by Q4 2026. If a vehicle comes in for this condition, inform the customer that powering the vehicle off for 5 minutes with all of the doors closed will temporarily restore operation of the power running boards. Once available, software will update automatically if vehicle connectivity is enabled in the vehicles settings. Schedule a service visit for customers who have disabled vehicle connectivity or who report that they did not receive the update by November 2026. Monitor Professional Technician System (PTS) for additional information and

Other DSM functions may be affected such as heated/cooled/memory seats. This may be due to the software in the DSM. If offline, DSM communication can be restored by cycling the power seat switch or performing a power reset to the DSM. DSM software will update automatically if vehicle connectivity is enabled in the vehicles settings. Schedule a service visit for customers who don't want to wait, or have disabled vehicle connectivity, or report that they did not receive the update by December 2026. To correct the condition in the service department, download and run the "DSM - Driver Seat Module (DSM) Module Software Update" application using the latest

Reason for update: To add 2027 vehicle models, update the Parts list to change the tape, and revise Step 4 to change the tape and wrap an additional wiring harness. Some of the vehicles listed in the Model Statement above may exhibit a concern where the horn intermittently sounds when turning the steering wheel. This may be due to incorrect routing of a wire harness in the steering wheel, a loose strand of wire protruding from a wire harness and grounding the driver airbag, and/or a concern with one of the driver airbag mounting points.
