Given that the recall covers cars manufactured from 2011 to 2019, problematic cars may also be found in Russia
Ford begins 2024 with a major recall: problems were found in 1.8 million Ford Explorer SUVs in the United States. And taking into account cars sold in other countries, approximately 2.2 million units are being recalled. Reason – in the unreliable fastening of the front strut cover (the one painted gloss black in the photo): at speed while driving it can fall off, which is unsafe.
The fastening defect affected vehicles manufactured from 2011 to 2019. A Ford spokesman said that only about 5% of all vehicles have a bad trim, but the company still urges owners of this model to take it to a dealer to have it checked.
Last year in the US alone, Ford recalled 58 models totaling about 6.1 million units.
