What Ford owners said

Owners’ own words, scrubbed of anything identifying. Unverified reports filed with NHTSA — what was said, not a finding that it was true.

My own OBD-II scan on 7/9/26 recorded U0121 (lost communication with ABS module), U0415 (invalid data from ABS module), U3035 (communication authentication failure), and U1012

What U0415 means

Source: SAE J2012 / OBD-II

U0415 sits in the generic range of the OBD-II standard, so it means the same thing on every vehicle sold in the United States — but WhichTrim does not carry a definition for it and will not invent one. What is on this page is the record: who named it and on what.

A stored code names the test that failed, never the part that caused it. The record above is what Ford and its owners have filed about it; the code’s page across every make has the whole file.

It is a documented one: NHTSA's files hold 58 manufacturer filings and 2 owner reports naming U0415 on 24 Ford model years (2017–2026). 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.

2024 F-250 Super Duty (4 documents), 2023 F-250 Super Duty (4 documents), 2023 F-350 Super Duty (4 documents).

Does U0415 on a Ford mean it is recalled?
