- FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAPCampaign 95V063000 · 27/03/1995
THE SEAL MATERIAL BETWEEN THE FUEL FILLER PIPE AND FUEL TANK MAY NOT HAVE BEEN FULLY CURED DURING THE MOLDING PROCESS WHICH COULD ALLOW FOR FUEL LEAKAGE.
Risk: FUEL LEAKAGE COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE FIRE IF AN IGNITION SOURCE WERE PRESENT.
Fix: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FUEL FILLER PIPE-TO-FUEL TANK SEAL WITH A NEW SEAL OF DIFFERENT MATERIAL.
- AIR BAGS:FRONTALCampaign 95E006002 · 24/02/1995
THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG HAS AN INFLATOR BODY THAT CRACKED DURING FORMING OF THE CURL THAT RETAINS THE IGNITER PLUG IN THE END OF THE INFLATOR. ALSO THE IGNITER END CAP CAN SEPARATE FROM THE INFLATOR.
Risk: THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG MAY NOT INFLATE PROPERLY RESULTING IN REDUCED OCCUPANT PROTECTION IN A VEHICLE ACCIDENT. IF THE IGNITER END CAP SEPARATES IN A FRONTAL COLLISION, HOT GASES CAN BE RELEASED AND IGNITE FLAMMABLE MATERIAL OR CAUSE BURN INJURIES.
Fix: DEALERS WILL REMOVE AND REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG MODULE.
- STEERINGCampaign 15E082000 · 06/10/2015
Dorman Products, Inc. (Dorman) is recalling certain model Dorman Steering Shafts, part number 425-359, Solutions Steering Shafts, part number 7-0359, and OE Solutions Steering Shafts, part number 425-359, manufactured April 17, 2014, to September 28, 2015. These aftermarket replacement steering shafts are sold for use in 1995-2002 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis, and Lincoln Town Car vehicles. These steering shafts may separate during operation if the integral fastener is loose or missing and if the interfacing vehicle shaft is compressed in length.
Risk: If the shafts separate during vehicle operation, a loss of steering control would result, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Fix: Dorman will notify owners, and dealers will replace the steering shaft, free of charge. The recall began on October 28, 2015. Owners may contact Dorman customer service at 1-800-523-2492, option 5.
- SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGECampaign 96V045000 · 05/03/1996
THE RIVETS HOLDING THE REAR OUTBOARD BELT D-RINGS WERE NOT HEAT TREATED PROPERLY CAUSING THE HEADS OF THE RIVETS TO FRACTURE UNDER LOAD AND FAIL TO HOLD THE D-RINGS TO THE STRAPS. THIS DOES NOT CONFORM TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 210, "SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY ANCHORAGES."
Risk: CONSEQUENCE OF NON-COMPLIANCE: THIS CONDITION CAN REDUCE THE RESTRAINING CAPABILITIES OF THE SAFETY BELT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT.
Fix: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A REINFORCEMENT PLATE ON THE REAR OUTBOARD SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY ANCHORAGES INVOLVED IN THIS CAMPAIGN.
- VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CRUISE CONTROLCampaign 08V051000 · 04/02/2008
FORD IS RECALLING 225,000 MY 1992-2003 ECONOLINE, MY 1993-1995 TAURUS SHO, MY 1992-1998 CROWN VICTORIA, MY 1993 BRONCO, F-SERIES, MY 1995-1997 F-SERIES SUPER DUTY STRIPPED CHASSIS, MY 1992-1998 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS, AND MY 1992-1995 LINCOLN TOWN CAR VEHICLES. THE AFFECTED VEHICLES WERE PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED USING A WIRING HARNESS THAT IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE VEHICLE CIRCUIT POLARITY.
Risk: AS A RESULT, THE FUSE IS LOCATED IN THE OUTPUT CIRCUIT RATHER THAN IN THE INTENDED INPUT POWER FEED CIRCUIT, AND MAY NOT OFFER THE INTENDED PROTECTION IN THE EVENT OF AN ELECTRICAL SHORT TO GROUND.
Fix: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A NEW WIRING HARNESS, OR REPLACE THE MATING ELECTRICAL COMPONENT. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 18, 2008. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FORD AT 1-800-392-3673.
- VEHICLE SPEED CONTROLCampaign 07V336000 · 03/08/2007
ON CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS, PASSENGER VEHICLES, SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, AND MOTOR HOMES CHASSIS, THE SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH MAY, UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, LEAK INTERNALLY AND THEN OVERHEAT, SMOKE, OR BURN.
Risk: THIS COULD RESULT IN AN UNDERHOOD FIRE.
Fix: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A FUSED WIRING HARNESS. OWNERS OF THE PASSENGER CARS INCLUDED IN THIS CAMPAIGN WILL BE INSTRUCTED TO RETURN THEIR VEHICLES TO THEIR DEALERS TO HAVE THE SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH DISCONNECTED AS AN INTERIM REPAIR. AS SOON AS REPAIR PARTS ARE AVAILABLE (EXPECTED OCTOBER 2007), OWNERS WILL BE INSTRUCTED TO RETURN TO THE DEALERS FOR INSTALLATION OF A FUSED WIRING HARNESS. THE RECALL BEGAN ON AUGUST 13, 2007, AND MAILING COMPLETED BY SEPTEMBER 19, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FORD AT 1-888-222-2751.
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERSCampaign 95V189000 · 02/10/1995
THESE VEHICLES WERE BUILT WITH THE NON-CYCLING POWER WINDOW CIRCUIT BREAKER AND THE CYCLING HEADLAMP CIRCUIT BREAKER INTERCHANGED.
Risk: IN THE EVENT OF A SHORT OR OVERLOAD IN THE HEADLAMPCIRCUIT, BOTH HEADLAMPS CAN GO OUT WITHOUT WARNING, RATHER THAN FLASHING AS INTENDED WITH THE CYCLING CIRCUIT BREAKER. THIS COULD LEAD TO REDUCED NIGHT TIME DRIVER VISIBILITY, INCREASING THE POTENTIAL FOR A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
Fix: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THESE VEHICLES, REMOVE THE CIRCUIT BREAKER AND REINSTALL THE BREAKER IN THE CORRECT LOCATIONS.

WE PURCHASED FROM AN OLD GENTLEMAN OF OUR AQUAINTENCE THIS CAR THAT SHOWED 56000 MILES. THE CAR WAS WOBBLY AND UN-STEADY. WE TOOK IT TO OUR MECHANIC WHO SUGGESTED WE PUT NEW SHOCKS WHICH DID NOT HELP. WE HAD FELT A STRANGE FLOATING SENSATION THE DAY BEFORE WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. THE AFTERNOON OF THE INCIDENT WE HEARD A NOISE IN THE REAR AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING VERY BAD. THE DRIVER APPLIED BRAKES WHICH CAUSED THE CAR TO SPIN AROUND AND HEAD TO THE DITCH. HE GOT IT BACK ON THE ROAD, APPLIED BRAKES AGAIN, AGAIN LOST CONTROL, FINALLY GOT IT STOPPED. WITNESS HEARD A METALIC SOUND BEFORE, WENT BACK LATER AND PICKED UP A 2 1/2 INCH BOLT WHICH WAS MISSING FROM THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE STABLIZER BAR AND REAR AXLE. I FEEL THIS IS AN EXTREME DANGER. WE FEEL THERE WAS A DEFECT IN THE REAR SUSPENSION ALL ALONG. WE REPLACED THE BOLT BUT THE CAR IS STILL WOBBLY AND SHAKEY IN THE REAR. THANKS FOR ANY INFORMATION YOU CAN SUPPLY. DT

I HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AS THESE PEOPLE THAT HAVE ALL POSTED INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET. NOW I HAVE TAKE MY CAR INTO MULTIPLE PLACES TO HAVE THE PROBLEM RESOLVED, AND NOBODY SEEMS TO KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. I THINK SINCE SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM THAT IT IS NOT OUR PROBLEM, BUT A PROBLEM THAT MERCURY AS A COMPANY NEEDS TO FIX. I AM HAVING AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH MY VAN NOT STARTING. IT IS A 1993 MERCURY VILLAGER. ON SATURDAY AFTER DRIVING IT FOR ABOUT 1 HOUR WITH MULTIPLE STOPS WHERE I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND WENT INTO A STORE, IT WOULD NOT START. WHEN I TURNED THE KEY EVERY SINGLE LIGHT CAME ON, SEAT BELT, CHECK ENGINE, IT SEEMED LIKE 7 OR 8 IN ALL. THERE WAS NOTHING. WE TRIED JUMPING IT, BUT THAT DID NOT DO ANYTHING. LATER THAT DAY SOMEONE TOLD ME IT SOUNDED TO HIM LIKE IT WASN'T IN PARK OR AT LEAST THE CAR DIDN'T THINK IT WAS IN PARK. I TRIED STARTING IT AGAIN AFTER DEPRESSING THE BRAKE, TURNING TO ON AND MOVING FROM PARK TO NEUTRAL THEN BACK TO PARK. IT STARTED UP JUST LIKE ALWAYS. I DROVE AROUND AND MADE 2 STOPS. THE FIRST TIME IT STARTED RIGHT BACK UP, THE SECOND TIME IT WOULDN'T START, BUT AFTER MOVING IT TO NEUTRAL AND BACK TO PARK IT STARTED RIGHT UP. AFTER A TOTAL DRIVING TIME OF ABOUT 35 - 40 MINUTES I ARRIVED HOME. ABOUT 20 MINUTES LATER I WENT OUT TO START THE CAR AND GOT NOTHING. THIS TIME THE NEUTRAL TO PARK TRICK DID NOT WORK. I TRIED NUMEROUS TIME OVER THE COURSE OF AN HOUR WITH NO LUCK. HAVE A 1997 VILLAGER WITH 130K ON IT. THE VAN HAS BEEN RUNNING FINE UNTIL TWO DAYS AGO. I WENT OUT TO START IT AND IT SPITS, SPUTTERS, BACKFIRES AND DIES. *TR

ABS BRAKE SYSTEM: THE TWO FRONT ANTI-LOCK SENSOR INDICATORS-STEEL RING ATTACHED TO THE INSIDE OF THE HUBS-ROTTED OUT. THIS CREATED A LOW VOTAGE OUTPUT AND CYCLED THE ABS SYSTEM INCREASING STOPPING DISTANCE ON DRY PAYMENT. WHEN REMOVED, THE INDICATORS WERE ROTTED TO THE EXTEND THAT THERE WERE HOLES IN THE STEEL. UPON REPLACEMENT, THE ABS SYSTEM WORKED AS DESIGNED. A BETTER MATERIAL MUST BE USED IF MANUFACTURERS ARE GOING TO SELL CARS IN AREAS WHERE ROAD SALT IS USED.
