5th wheel prep package

Hey Y'all,

So I saw that there was a recall on the F350 5th wheel prep package. It appears to not affect the f250 as of now based off of what I found. Just a heads up.

Apparently, Ford has identified a big issue where it can detach from the chassis when under heavy load!

Sounds like the problem is a cracked mounting bracket from supplier. Ford seems to think it was only installed on DRW vehicles built around November 2020.

So probably not affecting any Tremors. I believe these brackets can be visually inspected from underneath the vehicle. Maybe worth taking a look if you use the 5th wheel. Just in case.
