What really hurts is how I've been driving my BS for a year and a half not knowing that I was missing critical info on the emissions sticker under my hood!!

You probably didn't notice it was missing because of that nice engine cover.

Haven't gotten a new sticker yet -- now I'm afraid to drive my Sport, expecting a visit from CARB (Calif Air Resources Board) at any moment to haul me away for my lawless ways.
I can't believe CARB hasn't updated their name! CARB is so 60's. It should be F. U. E. L. F#@king Useless Environmental Losers. 😁

It's the over-regulated government environment all manufacturers must live in. It would be interesting to know just how much of the cost of a vehicle is to cover EPA and other regulations.

I placed it under the hood of my 67 Camaro. Lost a few HP.

I got a letter from Ford today explaining that I need to apply a new Vehicle Emission Control Information (VECI) Label (included in the letter) under the hood of my BS. It turns out that the label that was originally put on is missing two acronyms. After looking under the hood I found that both EGR and EGRC are the missing items from the original label. How could Ford let this happen?!?! I feel like my vehicle is unsafe now and I risk every kind of failure under the sun. What a death trap!!! OH WHAT SHALL I DOOO!!!??? We're DOOMED!!!! DOOMED I SAY!!! Thank goodness I have a Subaru dealer a half mile from my house!! 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪 :bow: Ok, I'm totally acting but wondering if anyone else got this recently.

I got mine a week ago as well as a notice on Fordpass. Installing today, expecting significant HP gains while saving a couple of spotted owls.
Got mine,too. Once installed it's like growing boobs after drinking a Bud Lite. What a difference!!!!!

I got the letter, but it didn't have any stickers. Threw it away.
My sticker is still on the counter. I'd be happy to send it to you. I wonder how much Ford pays the dealer to install.

I would be pissed off on the phone with Ford if my sticker was missing... they would here it from me... totally unacceptable....

Now that I'm a ford mechanic, and have adhesive training, shouldn't I get a cap or something?
Bronco swag?

Received mine in the mail today, I think I'll leave it in the envelope, sort of an emmissions delete type of thing, lol.

Is this just targeted for 2021 and 2022? In looking at those who received one, it appears that way. I haven't looked at the underside of my hood (2023) to see if it has the dreaded sticker.

I'm still sleeping at night though.
