Ford Recalls 91,198 F-150s a Second Time Over Faulty Lights
Ford is recalling just under 100,000 versions of the 2018-2020 F-150 pick-up truck for a second time. After not being properly fixed under a prior recall, the trucks still suffer form the potential of when the headlight switch is turned from "Autolamps" to "Headlamps On," the Daytime Running Lamps (DRLs) may remain fully bright instead of dimming to parking lamps as intended. This produces far too much light at the front of the truck, not compliant with the rules of the road.
To fix the issue, Ford dealers will reprogram the body control module software, free of charge. Those with affected trucks should get letters mailed by July 6. 2026. For now, owners may contact customer service at 1-866-436-7332.

Ford has so many recalls maybe you should have a section for things Ford has actually done right, but only if was for the good of the consumer (you know, the buyers).
Granted, it might not be a very long list, but it would be interesting!
