(Reuters) – Ford Motor is recalling more than 148,000 vehicles in the United States as part of two recalls, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Thursday.

The automaker will recall 123,611 vehicles due to a fluid leak that could reduce braking performance and increase stopping distance. This affects certain 2017–18 Ford F-150, Expedition, and Lincoln Navigator models.

Dealers are expected to replace the affected parts like the master cylinder or the brake booster, free of charge, the U.S. auto safety regulator said.

Separately, Ford is calling back 24,655 of its 2025 Explorer vehicles as a powertrain control module (PCM) may reset while driving, which can damage the vehicle’s park system or cause an engine stall, according to the regulator.

Dealers are expected to fix the software issue free of charge, with owners receiving notification letters by May 26.
