2018 FORD EXPLORER Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2018 Ford Explorer has 6 recalls, the most serious being a fuel leak from the pressure sensor on vehicles with 2.3L or 3.5L turbocharged engines, which can ignite and cause a fire, and a rear suspension toe link that can fracture and cause sudden loss of steering control. A third fire risk applies only to MXV wheelchair accessible versions: holding the tilt-and-go front seat switch too long can overheat and melt the wiring, potentially causing a short circuit and fire. On the structural side, two related issues involve exterior trim that can detach while driving: A-pillar trim held by poorly engaged retention clips can come loose and fall off, and roof rail covers with loosened retention pins can separate from the vehicle, both creating road hazards for other drivers. The rearview camera on certain vehicles can display a blank image when reversing, reducing the driver's ability to see behind the vehicle.
