In a news statement, the Ford Motor Company, in conjunction and in accordance with the standards and guidelines of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), announced the safety recall of roughly 490,000 minivans and sports utility vehicles (SUVs) because of defects that could possibly lead to engine compartment fires and a loss of power.
According to the NHTSA and Dan Pierce, a Ford spokesman, this recall affects 205,896 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans, 244,530 Ford Escape SUVs in North America and approximately 40,000 Escapes sold elsewhere. This recall for the Ford Escape follows the 2007 recall, where Ford claimed that certain vehicles could have been improperly repaired. The minivan recall was initiated following an investigation by the NHTSA. The 2001 and 2002 model Escapes could potentially leak brake-fluid out of their brake master cylinder reservoirs, resulting in a fire due to corrosion.
The 2004 and 2005 model Freestar and Monterey minivans could potentially have torque converter output shafts that fail, resulting in an unexpected loss of power. This defect poses a crash hazard to motorists and pedestrians.
