2010 FORD TAURUS Recalls — Canada & USA

Recalls 2 and 3 describe the same door handle spring defect. Recalls 1 and 4 describe the same license plate lamp corrosion issue filed in different jurisdictions. So there are effectively 2 unique defects across 4 recall filings. The 2010 Ford Taurus has 4 recalls, the most serious being a corrosion issue inside the license plate lamp assembly that can cause a short circuit and start a fire in the rear of the vehicle. This recall applies to vehicles in states and provinces where road salt is heavily used in winter. The other recall covers an interior door handle return spring that can slip out of position and leave the handle not fully stowed after use; in that condition, the door may unlatch during a side impact crash, raising the risk of injury to the occupant seated next to it.
