If you own, or know someone who owns a 2011-2015 Ford, you may need to take it in.

According to the website:

Owners will be given the option to inspect the door latch date codes and child safety locks and submit latch date codes online to confirm if repairs done under safety recalls 15S16 or 16S30 were completed correctly. The online system will provide instant validation that the door latches are OK or the latches cannot be confirmed and require dealer service.

As if things weren't bad enough, in the same release they announced a second recall involving a brake fluid cylinder that may leak brake fluid into another part of the car.

If that were to happen, you will be hearing a chime and see a warning light. You will also potentially feel a reduce brake function to the front wheels.

This is affecting over 250,000 vehicles on this list.

  • Select 2015-17 Ford F-150 vehicles built at Dearborn Truck Plant, Oct. 1, 2014, to Aug. 1, 2016
