Is your Ford minivan or SUV part of the huge recall out of Michigan?
A:
Lake Jackson auto defect lawyers detail the vehicles affected by the massive Ford recall out of Dearborn, MI.
- Around 206,000 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterrey minivans from the 2004 and 3005 model years are being recalled. Their torque converter output shafts might fail. If the torque converter output shaft fails, the vehicle could suffer a sudden, unexpected loss of power leading to a crash.
- Approximately 245,000 Escape SUVs from the 2001 and 2002 model years are subject to the Ford recall. Their brake master cylinder reservoir cap could leak brake fluid. If the brake fluid leaks, the leak could cause corrosion of the electrical connectors in the vehicle's braking system. The corrosion could lead to melting, smoke, or fire.
Ford said that it will notify vehicle owners of the recalls relating to the dangerous mechanical problems, and that Ford dealers will replace the defective parts free of charge.
