3 recalls across 3 model years
The Ford CL Series has 3 recalls covering 1981 through 1989, with the most serious being a steering shaft yoke defect on 1981 models where brittle welds can fail and cause a complete loss of steering control.
On 1988 models equipped with a Cummins engine, oil cooler gaskets can rupture and spray oil onto hot exhaust components, creating a fire risk. On 1989 models, the spring parking brake chamber housing can develop cracks around the mounting studs, fracture, and allow the chamber to separate from the vehicle, removing parking brake function.
