What is wrong
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2021 F-150 and 2020-2021 F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 Super Duty vehicles. During manufacturing, the windshield may not have been properly bonded to the vehicle, allowing it to detach in a crash.

Safety risk
In the event of a crash, if the windshield separates from the vehicle, it can increase the risk of injury.
