Ford Is Issuing Massive Recall

Michigan based Ford Motor company is issuing a massive recall.

According to WXYZ, "Ford is recalling nearly 1.4 million midsize cars in North America because the steering wheel can detach from the steering column and drivers could lose control."

The cars that Ford has issued the recall on include "certain Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars from the 2014 through 2018 model years." The steering wheel can become detached due to the loosening of the wheel bolts over time. So, if you have a vehicle that needs to be taken in because of this recall, they will "replace the bolts with longer ones that have more aggressive threads and a nylon patch to stop them from coming loose."

So far, Ford says it only knows of three incidents related to this issue; two crashes, and one injury. Get more info here.
