Last Saturday I was at the dealer for an oil change ( 08 with 38k ) and was told that I had 2 recalls! One is for the cooling fan assembly and other for the leaky fuel gasket ( and at this time there's no fix ).

I still need to go back to have this taken care of. Has anyone else been notified about this cooling fan recall?

On a side note there was another F there with 105k on it getting a starter replaced and they found a manifold with a crack and it's also the same side the starter is on. Service guy told me the owner was looking for headers to install. Oem manifold 1500. for one yikes!

I am due for the same two recalls; just waiting till they get the fix for the fuel gasket before scheduling an appointment.

mine is due for those 2 also plus the gas pedal one which was declined by the previous owner and me

I found it funny that mine didn't come up for the gas pedal/software recall. Since I have the full sized gas pedal still, I guess the previous owner never had it done. I can also still brake and gas at the same time

I will bring it up at the next visit. I was just there a month ago and they didnt say anything. Obviously they will because this is a huge meal ticket for the dealers

What is interesting is the Service Campaigns are usually limited to vehicles still under warranty. The fan SC is not. I checked TIS and my car with over 100k miles is covered for this. Very unusual. I wish the notchy steering rack was covered this way.

Mine just went in for 50k maintenance this Monday, and was notified about the cooling fan recall as well. The dealer did the oil change and the recall. My dealer said the remedy for the other recall will be out in about two weeks

So In the event of a overheating engine, what is covered for repairs on warranty?

I bought my F in for right upper control arms it's was making slight squeaking noise had it replaced while there master tech informed me of recall on fan assembly and asked if I wanted it replaced, told them yes they order replacement parts and installed them. I picked up car this morning couldn't be happier.
