US EditioniStore Chargers Recalled After $15K in Damage: What to Look For
UNITED STATES, JUL 16 – The recall affects 694,271 SUVs with cracked fuel injectors that may leak fuel and cause fires; Ford offers a software update as an interim safety measure while a fix is developed.
- Ford is recalling approximately 694,271 Bronco Sport and Escape crossover SUVs due to cracking fuel injectors that could leak fuel and cause fires.
- The recall follows a year-long NHTSA investigation and expands on previous 2022 and 2024 recalls that included software updates but no injector replacements.
- Ford identified that in eight cases where vehicles had under-hood fires after repairs, the fuel injectors were cracked, and among these, six vehicles had not received the recommended engine software update.
- Ford’s temporary solution involves a software update that monitors for leaking injectors, limits engine power, and stops fuel flow, while the automaker continues to work on a permanent mechanical fix.
- Ford anticipates the total cost of the recall to be around $570 million, which will be accounted for in its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, underscoring its continued commitment to vehicle safety improvements.
