[Breaking News] Ford Car Fires


Recommended Posts

Several fire investigators hired by insurance companies and auto engineers consulted by CNN say a $20 switch is causing some Fords to ignite. Ford has issued two separate recalls to replace the switch in more than 1 million vehicles. But a Ford document obtained by CNN shows the same or similar switch was installed in a total of 16 million vehicles.

Yeah, doesn't breaking news mean news newly reported in the last few hours or so?

Our '97 F150 doesn't get out that much (mainly a stanby backup for when my Dad's '84 f150 goes on the fritz) but still, the garage is under our house, and that might poise a problem.

They dont OWN Volvo.

Volvo is just part of their group.

And the other poster who said he wouldn't touch Volvo just because they are in the Ford group... Meh :rolleyes:

The ford Motor group consists of the following:

Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Mazda, Volvo, Jaguar, Land Rover & Aston Martin.
