Ford has announced a second round of recalls for some Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles. Ford has already recalled the same batch of vehicles for a faulty wiring harnesses, but some of the new harnesses have a faulty fuse, which do not offer enough protection in case of a short circuit.
The original recall affected 225,000 vehicles — including 1992-2003 Econoline vans, 1992-98 Ford Crown Victoria/Mercury Grand Marquis sedans, 1993 Bronco SUVs, 1995-97 F-series stripped chassis trucks, 1993-95 Taurus SHO sedans, 1992-95 Town Car sedans, and 1993 F series trucks — but the latest recall will cover “only a small percentage of the total population of vehicles that were initially recalled,” according to Ford.
The latest recall will also only affect gasoline-powered vehicles.
