The 1991 Ford Econoline has two recalls, the more serious being a rear shock crossmember that can crack and break away from the frame, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle. The second recall involves the front seatbelt anchorage for the rear bench seat, which does not meet federal load requirements and can fail to hold occupants in place during a sudden stop or crash.
