It has been reported that the American car manufacturer Ford Motor is recalling a total of 4,380,609 vehicles due to a defect in the "integrated trailer module" software.

MILLIONS OF VEHICLES RECALLED! THE REASON IS QUITE INTERESTING
In the statement, it was reported that the recall is due to a defect in the "integrated trailer module" software, which may cause the "integrated trailer module" to lose communication with the vehicle.
"CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF ACCIDENT"
The statement indicated that this situation could lead to the trailer's stop lights and turn signals not functioning in both high and low-equipped models, and in high-equipped models, it could result in the loss of the trailer brake function, thereby jeopardizing driving safety and increasing the risk of accidents.
In the statement, it was reported that the potential number of vehicles affected by the recall is 4,380,609, and it was mentioned that Ford will address this issue free of charge with a software update.
