I guess Ford isn't the only one with issues and recalls. lol Sad that almost all the auto makers now are just hit or miss if you're going to get a good vehicle or if it'll catch on fire and burn you or your house down!

So park your Jeep and don't drive it yet you still have to pay for it while we figure out where we messed up. For many I'm sure this is their only transportation. Then, how are they supposed to get their Jeeps to the dealers? Is Jeep paying for all these to be towed which they should seeing as they're a fire hazard.

The automaker said it has not yet finalized a repair but expects a remedy to be available by July.

Once the fix is ready, affected owners will be notified by mail and instructed on how to schedule repairs at their local dealership.

I wonder if their EVs/PHEVs are affected.

Yeah, I was going to say that while Ford may have a record number of recalls in the past few years, at least I haven't heard of them spontaneously combusting and burning down your home and your family as well.

I think the ford engine block heater recall is basically about that. I know there was a recall about cracked injectors a while ago on some fords causing fuel leaks which could start a fire if the fuel hit an ignition source.

pretty crazy all the codes we have to abide by if you diy or hire someone to do electrical work in your house, but auto companies can just throw bad electrical wiring in a car and say “oh yeah just don’t park in garage our bad”
