Official summary

Some 2020 Escape vehicles may encounter false blind spot information system (BLIS) alerts. This may be due to the side obstacle detection right (SODR) and side obstacle detection left (SODL) control module mounting brackets and configuration. To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure to replace the mounting brackets and configure the modules.

Vehicles covered

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
