DETROIT—Ford is recalling nearly a quarter-million heavy duty pickup trucks in the United States because the drive shafts can fracture and cause a loss of power.

The recall covers certain F-250 and F-350 Super Duty pickups from the 2017 through 2022 model years. The trucks have gasoline engines and aluminum drive shafts.
