Ford is recalling 422,613 vehicles — the 2021–2023 Ford Expedition, the 2022–2023 Ford Super Duty, and the 2021–2023 Lincoln Navigator — because windshield wipers may operate erratically, fail, or detach.
The defect stems from wiper assemblies supplied by Trico that used improperly staked retention plates, which can strip the splines on wiper arms and reduce functionality; Ford had recalled some of these model years in April 2022 for the same issue.
Ford identified a potential issue in January 2026 while reviewing older recalls under a 2024 consent order with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and by March it had uncovered the root cause and expanded the recall to include Super Duty. As of March 16, Ford reported 1,538 warranty reports, 11 field reports and three customer service reports, with no accidents or injuries reported.
Ford will notify affected owners this month and says it will inspect and replace wipers that fail checks once the remedy and inspection process are finalized.
