3 recalls across 2 model years
The Ford Torino has 3 recalls covering the 1972 and 1976 model years, with the most serious being a cooling fan defect on 1972 models equipped with 302, 351, or 400 cubic inch engines and air conditioning, where fan blade fatigue cracking can cause fragments to break free from the spinning fan without warning while the engine is running.
The 1976 model year has two recalls. The parking brake system on these vehicles can be over-tensioned from the factory, which may affect how reliably the brake holds the vehicle stationary. On 1976 models with air conditioning, switching the climate control selector to the defrost mode can cause a delay in the mode door moving into position, temporarily reducing defrost effectiveness.
