A total of 634,000 of the SUVs are being recalled for the problem worldwide.

Ford has announced another SUV recall, this time impacting about 520,000 Ford Escape and Bronco Sport compacts in the United States. Potential cracks in the vehicles’ fuel line could cause fires to break out under the hood of some cars, according to Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 634,000 of the SUVs are being recalled for the problem worldwide, the company said.

That recall, announced in March, involved a potential leak that could allow oil to get to places in the car where it might catch fire. The majority of vehicles involved in that earlier recall have had the needed work to fix that issue, according to the company. That doesn’t mean they’re protected from the issue in this latest recall, however. Under the new recall, Ford dealers will install a software update that will detect a possibly cracked injector.

The only thing that Ford makes well is the pickup truck!

Don't buy a new car... Buy used and get it serviced at a shop. Higher upfront costs but more reliability and fewer emissions overall.
