What's wrong?
The ABS control module on the 2011 Ford F-750 and F-650 Sd is the electronic controller for the air-brake antilock system. It reads wheel-speed signals and commands the air-brake system so the wheels keep rotating during hard braking, instead of locking and sliding. On trucks with a trailer package or tractor package, that programming also has to match the way the truck is set up to tow.
In this recall, the ABS module was programmed incorrectly. That means the controller does not meet the required air-brake antilock setup for these Ford trucks. The issue is in the module programming, not a brake hose, chamber, or lining that an owner can inspect from outside the truck.
There is no warning sign before failure. The recall filing does not identify a pedal feel, noise, warning lamp, or other driver symptom tied to the incorrect programming.
Who's affected?
Both medium-duty truck lines point to the same anti-lock brake system (ABS) component.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific truck is included.
What's the safety risk?
The truck can fail to show a trailer ABS fault in the cab, leaving the driver without that warning when the trailer ABS has already failed. That trailer ABS failure can cause trailer brake lock-up and increase crash risk. Schedule the recall repair promptly. Repair will be free at any franchised Ford dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm whether your 2011 Ford F-750 or F-650 Sd is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Ford dealer and ask whether the ABS module replacement for recall number 11V264 is open for your VIN.
- Schedule the free ABS module replacement that restores the in-cab trailer ABS fault warning.
- Bring the recall notice if Ford mailed one, or give the dealer recall number 11V264 when you call.
- Drive with extra care until the repair is complete, especially when towing a trailer.
What happens at the repair
Ford's repair path is the ABS module replacement described in the recall remedy. When the repair is open for your truck, a Ford technician replaces the incorrectly programmed ABS module at no charge. That module controls anti-lock braking logic for the air brake system, so the service visit is focused on replacing the control module rather than adjusting the trailer or tractor package. Parts and labor are covered by the recall.
