On January 21, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) made public that Ford Motor Company is set to recall more than 119,000 vehicles across the United States. The recall stems from a fire hazard tied to engine block heaters. These heaters are prone to cracking, which can subsequently cause coolant to leak. Should a short circuit arise while the heater is in operation, the likelihood of a fire occurring significantly escalates. This recall specifically targets the engine heater components in certain vehicle models. It is strongly advised that owners of the affected vehicles promptly get in touch with their dealers to arrange for a complimentary inspection and necessary repairs.
