43,000 Ford SUVs from 2022-2023 are recalled due to potential gas leaks and fire risk.
Ford recalls nearly 43,000 SUVs for potential gas leaks, posing fire risk. The affected models are Bronco Sport SUVs from 2022 and 2023, and Escape SUVs from 2022, all with 1.5-liter engines. Fuel injectors may crack, causing gasoline or vapor to accumulate near ignition sources, potentially leading to fires. The recall aims to install a tube for gasoline to flow away from hot surfaces, and update engine control software to detect pressure drops in the fuel injection system. However, this remedy does not repair the fuel leaks.
