Traded my 2021 ford F150 Recall truck new model ford must have come out with have a 2022 150 hybrid now 2400miles trailer brake module fault
Mine wasn't recalled, but I decided to get the Trailer Brake Controller after I had purchased the truck..... It has now been OVER A YEAR since a ordered it. If Ford takes a YEAR to rectify something this simple, I have lost all faith in the brand. When this truck is done, I won't be buying Ford again.
