Ford Bronco Sport and Escape Recalled Due to Fuel Injectors That May Crack

If the vehicle experiences this problem, the driver may notice a fuel odor outside and inside the vehicle. Should the fuel catch on fire, smoke or flames may be seen coming from the engine compartment or underbody, and instrument panel warning lights may be illuminated.

The recall includes 694,271 SUVs. This recall expands and replaces previous recall numbers 22V859, 24V187, and 25V165. 

Once the new final remedy is available, vehicles previously remedied under 22V859, 24V187, and 25V165 will need to have it performed.

Ford has identified eight related fires, but the automaker is not aware of any crashes or injuries related to this condition. 

Owners will be notified by letter in mid-August, and a follow-up letter will be sent once a fix is available.
