What's wrong?
The brake pedal return spring on the 2021-2022 Fccc Xc Chassis is a torsion spring inside the adjustable brake pedal assembly. Its job is simple: after you release the service brake pedal, the spring pulls the pedal back to its rest position. That return movement also tells the brake-light switch that braking has ended.
On affected chassis, the adjustable pedal assembly was built without that return spring. Without spring tension, the pedal can stay out of position after your foot leaves it. The brake signal can remain active, which keeps the brake lights on. In certain towed vehicles, the same stuck signal can keep the brakes applied after the pedal is released.
Owners can catch this during a pre-trip inspection if the brake lights stay illuminated after the pedal is released. Another sign is cruise control that will not set after braking, because the vehicle still reads the brake pedal as active.
Who's affected?
Covers the Xc Chassis across the 2021 and 2022 model years, with the same brake pedal return spring tied to the anti-lock brake system (ABS).

The year and chassis model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific vehicle is included.
What's the safety risk?
Malfunctioning brake lights can fail to warn other motorists when the driver intends to brake, increasing the risk of a crash. Brakes that stay engaged on a towed vehicle also increase crash risk. Treat illuminated brake lights during inspection or cruise control that will not set as warning signs. Repair is free at any franchised Fccc dealer.

- Check your VIN to confirm your 2021-2022 Fccc Xc Chassis is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Fccc dealer to schedule the free brake-pedal inspection and return-spring repair that fixes brake lights staying on after pedal release.
- Bring the recall notice if Fccc has mailed one. If not, reference recall number 21V108 when you call.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Fccc technician inspects the adjustable brake pedal assembly and installs the missing return spring if the assembly needs it. The inspection, spring installation, parts, and labor are free under the recall. If you already paid for a related brake pedal or brake light repair, use the reimbursement instructions in the owner notification letter. You can also ask Fccc customer service what documentation the plan requires before your service visit.
