Yeah....thats the new biggie recall over on the Expedition site. There's some chrome trim metal tape that covers a raised area on the center console that was apparently applied wrong causing it to bubble and detach. Problem is the tape is really thin chrome metal base tape and will cut your hand like a razor.
So because of $1.57 worth of defective trim tape, it is gonna cost Ford millions to fix.....
Yup, my Tank is gonna get a new console trip piece !!!

I spoke to my neighbors BF the other day, and they were not aware of the Bronco sport Recall. Glad I talked to him. With "supposedly" only 2000+ Sport models affected, probably ok, but with Ford, why risk it.

I always forget there's a Bronco Sport and always associate Bronco with the full size one. IMHO I think Ford messed up there and should've called the Sport something else like the Escape Sport. Especially when they came out before the full size one and many thought the Sport was it.
