I got the same alert and already got the update. When I click through it shows no open recalls or updates available. Must have been a mass push notification to anyone owning an lightning.

Same here on the alert today. 0 Recalls listed, but I got the Park Setting recall letter, and the recall briefly showed up in the FordApp but went away. I always set my electronic parking brake.

I have letters for the park lock and the Rear Light bar. The Ford app is showing 0 active recalls....ahhh who to believe.

Never believe FordPass app when there's a disagreement. Never.

I got a notification on the Ford app that there’s a hidden active recall. Made the appointment at my local Ford dealership when I got there I was told that that recall is not applicable to the Ford lightning. Not sure if the dealerships blow and smoke or if it’s sincerely is not applicable to the Ford lightning. Does anyone have any ideas

I don't see this recall in my app (it shows that there are none), but I did get a snail mail letter last month describing this exact recall and saying that parts aren't yet available but they will contact me when parts are available.

The recall is real, but the software fix is only available for 24-25 Lightning right now. Mine was done on Monday.

This is the status for 25C69 as of this morning in PTS (3 Mar 26)...posting this so you can manage expectations.

Can the Software Verification Approval Code be obtained by us mere mortals using FDRS or is that a Dealer Only little Diddy?

(I had this recall performed by Ford Mobile Service yesterday, but wondering it I could've done it myself using FDRS.)

Crossing my fingers Ford releases the fix for 22-23 models sooner than later.

Bought a 2023 new old stock from a dealer a month ago as of today and they won't release it to me until the recall fix is applied.

Pain :(

The dealerships finance manager was driving it for a couple years to work/to home apparently, 12000 miles on it but it was never sold or registered so I get full term warranty just with some mileage on the truck already.

I was bugging a sales guy about another truck which had already sold and he mentioned their finance guy had been driving a Lightning they didn't have listed and could probably sell it to me. Got a good deal on it and now I'm just playing the waiting game to collect.
