Is P0014 a known problem on Ford vehicles?

It is a documented one: NHTSA's files hold 334 manufacturer filings and 9 owner reports naming P0014 on 73 Ford model years (2016–2021). Whether it is a problem on one particular car is a diagnosis, not a count — but a bulletin that names the code on your model year is the place to start.

Which Ford models does P0014 appear on most?

2017 Fusion (11 documents), 2018 Fusion (9 documents), 2017 Escape (8 documents).

Does P0014 on a Ford mean it is recalled?

No. Recalls are filed by campaign and matched by VIN; no recall is triggered by a scan tool. Check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or open the model year's page here for the campaigns filed against it.
