Ford to Recall More Than 273K SUVs Over Potential Brake Defect
Read MoreHide Full Article
Ford Motor Company (F - Free Report) is set to recall 273,789 Expedition and Lincoln Navigator SUVs from model years 2022 to 2024 due to a potential brake defect, per the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The issue stems from the front brake lines possibly coming into contact with the engine air cleaner outlet pipe, which could damage the lines and cause a fluid leak.
A brake fluid leak may lead to longer brake pedal travel and a reduction in the rate of deceleration. A sudden loss or complete depletion of brake fluid can increase the distance needed to bring the vehicle to a stop, increasing the likelihood of a collision. The problem may have originated from the front brake line being bent during installation.
The affected vehicles were produced between April 15, 2021, and Nov. 20, 2024. Only about 1% of the recalled SUVs are expected to have this issue and haven’t led to any crashes or injuries. Owners of recalled vehicles are advised to bring their SUVs to a Ford or Lincoln dealership for inspection. If needed, the front brake line and/or air cleaner outlet pipe will be replaced at no cost to the customer.
The Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator have been key models in Ford’s lineup since their introduction in the late 1990s. Last year, Ford sold more than 78,000 Expeditions and 15,000 Navigators in the United States. F carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) at present.

Meanwhile, Waymo LLC, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL - Free Report) , is recalling 1,212 autonomous vehicles to address software issues that could cause them to collide with road barriers, such as chains and gates. Waymo operates more than 1,500 vehicles across San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix and Austin, providing over 250,000 fully autonomous paid rides each week. The company also has plans to expand its services to Atlanta, Miami, and Washington, D.C.
Earlier this month, Volvo (VLVLY - Free Report) issued a recall affecting 413,151 U.S. vehicles, including 2021–2025 XC40 models, due to a malfunctioning rearview camera system. Volvo will fix the issue through a software update either at dealerships or via over-the-air installation.
