Key Background

Ford Motor Company has recalled 107,534 vehicles in Canada. It is because of a low-pressure fuel pump deficiency that will lead to a sudden loss of engine power. It’s a serious deficiency that makes vehicles stall in motion. Ford says this happens suddenly, increasing the chances of an accident happening.

The recall includes a number of Ford’s top-selling models from the 2021 to 2023 model years, including the F-150, Bronco, Mustang, Explorer, Expedition, and Police Interceptor Utility. Lincoln vehicles such as the Aviator and Navigator are also included in the recall. Ford has not yet identified the solution to the problem, but when it’s fixed, everything which should be done will be done at no cost to the owner. Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by mail.

This Canadian recall is part of a larger safety push following a simultaneous U.S. recall of over 850,000 vehicles. The same fuel pump shortage in the U.S. means that the defect can be traced back to nearly a million Ford and Lincoln cars in North America. This is one of Ford’s biggest recalls in years and shows continuing problems with parts reliability.

Ford has been putting out recalls for months now regarding issues with defective door latches and defective child-lock mechanisms. These ongoing quality issues demonstrate the need to stay current and take back control. Owners need to check their car’s recall status via proper Ford support channels and have it fixed as soon as a patch emerges.
