Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Ford vehicles equipped with equipment from Iowa Mold Tooling Co., Inc. are affected by a potential fire hazard. A Muncie PTO pressure switch can leak oil that may soak into the thermal blanket covering the exhaust system. When this oil is exposed to heat from the exhaust, it may increase the risk of fire.
To address this issue, Iowa Mold Tooling Co., Inc. will notify owners and dealers will install a new pressure switch kit that moves the switch away from the exhaust system at no charge. Alternatively, dealers may remove the pressure switch assembly and install a plug in the port where the switch was located, since the switch was not being used. Affected owners should contact Iowa Mold Tooling Co., Inc. at 1-800-247-5958 for service.
