Ford Motor is recalling over 850,000 vehicles in the USA due to a potential fuel pump failure that may lead to engine stalling, thereby raising the crash risk, as stated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on Thursday.

The recall concerns specific models, namely the 2021-2023 Bronco, Explorer, Lincoln Aviator, F-250 SD, F-350 SD, F-450 SD, F-550 SD, 2021-2022 Lincoln Navigator, Mustang, F-150, and 2022 Expedition vehicles.

A fuel pump defect could stifle fuel delivery to the engine in affected vehicles, potentially causing an engine stall while driving.

Ford said an estimated 10% of the 850,318 vehicles included in the recall have the defect.

The company has recorded at least six consumer complaints regarding this issue but has not reported any related accidents or injuries from the fuel pump defect.

Letters notifying vehicle owners of the safety risk are expected to be mailed July 14.

Second letters will be sent once the remedy.

Drivers may notice a check engine light, weaker engine power or poor engine performance, including misfiring or running rough, ahead of the fuel pump failure.

The defect is more likely to occur in warm weather conditions with hot fuel in the tank, or when fuel levels are low, the automaker said.
