Per Safety Recall 23S65-S1 - NHTS 23V896 Ford notified the government in 2023 regarding the rear axle hub bolts breaking on F-150's equipped with the max tow package. My 2023 Ford F-150 is configured with the max tow package and has the same exact axle and hub bolt known to failure included in the recall I mentioned. The new replacement axle has a nut on the end to hold everything together so it's very easy to tell the difference. This failure is part(s) specific and my truck currently has the same axle and axle bolt included in this recall that is known to have a failure. I have attached a picture. The problem, my VIN is not part of the recall selection and this is a present safety concern for me and others. I have not had a failure yet but I have not towed with my truck because of this safety concern of a potential failure. Up until recently, Ford's fix for broken axle hub bolts were to replace with the same parts. Ford finally had a replacement axle (new style with a axle hub nut instead of a bolt) manufactured to eliminate this issue. It is a completely different design and uses a nut on the end to hold everything together. This recall needs to expand to include all F-150's that have the same axle & axle hub bolt.
