Massive Ford Recall Will Impact SUV Drivers In New York

There has been another massive auto recall and it will impact SUV drivers in New York State.

The Ford Motor Company has issued a recall for over 1.9 million Ford Explorers due to a faulty trim piece. This piece could come off when the vehicle is in motion and lead to potential accidents for other drivers on the road.

According to the AP News, it is the trim around the windshield that is the issue.

Documents posted Wednesday by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration say that clips holding the trim that covers the roof support close to the windshield can come loose.

There have been over 150 complaints about the faulty trim but the Ford Motor Company said that only 5% of Ford Explorers are affected by the faulty trim.

Ford Explorers manufactured between 2011 and 2019 are part of the recall. If you own one of these vehicles, you are encouraged to take it to the nearest Ford Dealership so they can inspect the trim and replace it if necessary.
