							Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Super Duty F-250, F-350, and F-450 trucks equipped with an electric tailgate latch release switch mounted in the tailgate handle.

							| Corrective action | 
							Ford will notify owners, and dealers will modify the tailgate/frame wiring harnesses by adding jumper pigtails to isolate the tailgate release control circuits and will install a new tailgate handle release switch, free of charge.  The recall is expected to begin January 20, 2020.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 19S48.  |
