BACK OVER PREVENTION:SOFTWARE
A rearview camera that displays a blank image can reduce the driver's view behind the vehicle. A rearview image that continues to be displayed after the vehicle is shifted out of reverse may distract the driver. Both of these situations can increase the risk of a crash.
23V379000
EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS
An overloaded vehicle increases the risk of a crash.
21V982000
FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
A misaligned radar module may prevent the vehicle from maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles when adaptive cruise control is active. In addition, the automatic emergency braking (AEB) system may react slowly, or not react at all, during a pre-collision assist braking event. Any of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.
21V811000
SEAT BELTS:FRONT:WEBBING
A misrouted seat belt may not adequately restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
21V765000
CHILD SEAT:VEHICLE LATCH ANCHOR
An improperly attached child seat can increase the risk of injury in a crash.

This page is about a model, not a car
Two 2021 FORD RANGERs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
