“#Ford recalls 775K Explorers over increased crash risk<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Ford on Friday issued a recall for nearly 775,000 Explorer SUVs due to an issue that the company says can increase the risk of a crash. <\/p>\n

The recall covers about 774,700 2013-2017 model Explorers that\u00a0may have a seized cross-axis ball joint, which can cause a fractured rear suspension toe link, the company said<\/a>. <\/p>\n

A fractured rear toe link \u201csignificantly diminishes steering control, increasing the risk of a crash,\u201d according to Ford.<\/p>\n

\u201cAffected vehicles may experience a clunk noise, unusual handling, or a misaligned rear wheel,\u201d the company added.<\/p>\n

Ford added that it is \u201caware of six allegations of injury related to this condition in North America.\u201d<\/p>\n

The recall affects about 676,000 cars in North America, 59,900 in China, 13,200 in Europe, 200 in South America and 25,300 in other markets, the company said. <\/p>\n

Ford added that in the US, the affected cars are in \u201chigh-corrosion states,\u201d which includes much of the Midwest and Northeast. <\/p>\n

The company said owner notifications will begin next month and dealerships will inspect the cross-axis ball joint. <\/p>\n

Also on Friday, the company issued two other small recalls. <\/p>\n

One recall app<\/a>lied to nearly 35,000\u00a0Ford F-350 Super Duty vehicles with a 6.7-liter engine and single rear wheel axle for a rear axle housing spring seat interface weld issue, which it also said can increase the risk of a crash. <\/p>\n

\"41,000

The company said it\u2019s \u201cnot aware of any accidents or injuries related to this condition.\u201d<\/p>\n

The third recall applies to about 41,000 2020-2021 Lincoln Aviator vehicles equipped with 3.0-liter gas engines \u201cbecause the battery cable wire harness may not be properly secured.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ford said the issue could lead to \u201ca short circuit and potential fire,\u201d but the company \u201cis not aware of any accidents, injuries or fires related to this concern.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
