Ford says this recall will require an engine software update and a tube installation that will drain fuel from the cylinder head and away from hot surfaces. The company says people can continue driving their vehicles under this recall.

Recalls aren’t uncommon in the automotive industry. While some recalls are serious, posing potential fire risks or other dangers, others are more tame and can be done with minor repairs or software updates. Tesla issued a recall earlier this week over rear light issues and is doing a major recall in China over software and seat-belt issues. Stellantis, parent company to Chrysler, Dodge and Alfa Romeo, informed owners earlier this month over faulty Takata airbags affecting 276,000 vehicles. GMC recalled 735 Hummer EVs and 86 BrightDrop EV600 electric vans for improperly sealed batteries. Due to regulation and potential lawsuits, companies are usually quick to inform customers of recalls and quickly remedy issues.
