What's wrong?
The high voltage battery junction box in the 2025 Ford F-150 Hybrid is the control point that routes power from the hybrid battery into the propulsion system. Inside that box, the main fuse protects the high voltage circuit by carrying the expected current and opening the circuit if electrical load gets too high.
In affected trucks, the supplier installed a 60-amp fuse where Ford specified a 150-amp fuse. That lower-rated fuse is not built for the truck's normal high voltage load, so it can fail during operation. If it fails while driving, the hybrid system loses drive power suddenly.
When the fuse fault occurs, the instrument cluster displays a "Stop Safely Now" warning message. Treat that message as the warning sign for this defect and bring the truck to a safe stop.

What's the safety risk?
A sudden loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash because the truck loses propulsion while in traffic. If the "Stop Safely Now" warning appears, move out of traffic, stop in a safe place, and call a Ford dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Ford dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2025 Ford F-150 Hybrid is included in this recall.
- Contact your nearest franchised Ford dealer to schedule the free 60-amp to 150-amp fuse replacement that fixes the incorrect high-voltage battery junction box fuse.
- Bring the owner letter if it arrived. If not, reference recall number 25V199 when you call.
- Drive cautiously until the repair is complete. Pull over safely if the truck loses drive power.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Ford technician replaces the incorrect 60-amp fuse in the high voltage battery junction box with the correct 150-amp fuse. The recall repair is free, and parts and labor are covered. Ford's standard reimbursement plan covers owners who already paid out of pocket for the same repair before the recall notice.
