If you live in a state where road salt is used and drive a 2011 through 2013 Ford Explorer, your vehicle may need recall work. Ford is recalling more than 126,000 Explorer SUVs because a suspension component could break and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
This recall includes only Explorers that have already had specific suspension components replaced once under prior recalls, and were initially sold or are currently registered in Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Washington, D.C. All of these areas traditionally use road salt extensively in the winter months.
The reason for the recall is that the replacement part of the rear suspension could corrode due to exposure to road salt. This could result in the fracture of a major part of the rear suspension and reduce steering control, which increases the risk of a crash.
According to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration documentation, Ford is not aware of any crashes or injuries related to the recall conditions.
