Ford Recalls 1.9 Million Explorers Over Loose Trim Pieces Safety Risk
TL;DR
Ford is recalling nearly 1.9 million Ford Explorer SUVs in the U.S. due to loose clips that could cause the windshield trim panels to detach while the vehicle is in motion, potentially increasing the risk of a crash. The recall covers models from 2011 through 2019, and concerns A-pillar retention clips. Owners are encouraged to contact dealers for an inspection and will receive a letter about the safety risk, with a second letter to follow when a remedy is available.
