Official summary
Some 2021 Escape vehicles built on or before 9-Feb-2021 may exhibit a "Tire Mobility" message in the message center. This may be due to the software in the instrument panel cluster (IPC). To correct the condition, download and run the "IPC Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) Configuration" application in the Ford Diagnostic and Repair System (FDRS) scan tool. If asked if the original module is still installed, answer NO. For claiming, use causal part 10849 and labor operations 12651D and 12651D4.
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.
