Ford recalls over 850,000 cars in the US due to potential fuel pump failure
UNITED STATES, JUL 10 – About 10% of the recalled vehicles may experience fuel pump failure linked to manufacturing changes, causing engine stalls that increase crash risk, Ford and NHTSA said.
- Ford Motor Company is initiating a recall affecting more than 850,000 cars across the United States because a defect in the low-pressure fuel pump could lead to engine stalling while the vehicle is in operation.
- The recall includes certain 2021 to 2023 model year Ford Broncos, Explorers, Lincoln Aviators, Navigators, Mustangs, F-150s, Super Duty trucks, and select 2022 Ford Expeditions.
- Ford began investigating the fuel pump issue in 2022, linking it to supplier manufacturing changes that increased fuel pump friction and risk of vapor lock.
- By June, Ford had accumulated close to 1,900 warranty claims along with more than 80 service and field reports, although no related accidents or injuries have been documented.
- Ford plans to start mailing notification letters warning owners of safety risks on July 14, while working on a remedy still under development.
