What was wrong

Defect

S&B Filters, Inc. (S&B Filters) is recalling certain Cold Air Intake Kits, part numbers 75-5085 and 75-5085D, sold for aftermarket installation on Ford Super Duty Powerstroke 6.7L diesel trucks. The battery tray, part number AL1298T-00, may not have the necessary hole to reattach the secondary battery ground wire if the truck is equipped with one.

Risk

If the secondary battery grounding wire cannot be properly attached after installing the Cold Air Intake Kit, the fuse box may melt, increasing the risk of a fire.

Manufacturer remedy

S&B Filters has notified owners and will replace the battery tray with a battery tray that can accommodate two ground wires, free of charge. The recall began on March 13, 2018. Owners may contact S&B Filters customer service at 1-909-947-0015, option 3.
