1983 Ford Escort Recalls

The 1983 Ford Escort has 3 recalls, the most serious involving the electric cooling fan motor, where corrosion in the front sleeve bushings can cause the motor to drag or seize, drawing excess current and creating a potential fire risk in the engine compartment.

The remaining two recalls both relate to exhaust emissions. On certain vehicles built with the 1.6-litre engine, emission control hoses may have been installed in reverse, causing emissions to exceed legal limits. A separate compliance recall covers the same emissions concern under Canadian standards. Neither emissions issue is expected to affect how the car drives day to day.
