Ford Announces Fix for Recalled Expedition and Navigator SUVs
Back in May, Ford announced a recall of about 39,000 2021 model-year Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator SUVs to fix a problem under the hood that could lead to a fire.
Over the next few weeks, five more fires were reported, four of which involved rental vehicles. One person suffered burns. It was no longer a question of a few isolated incidents. The source of the problem, according to Ford, is a circuit board provided by a supplier that changed manufacturing locations during the pandemic. The automaker’s statement mentions that “circuit boards produced at this facility are uniquely susceptible to a high-current short.”Photo: Lincoln 2021 Lincoln Navigator The affected vehicles are equipped with either an 800-watt or 700-watt cooling fan system.
