Warning - 17.5 Million Ford Vehicles for fire risk

The US auto-safety regulators have issued a warning to used Ford Motor Co.(F) vehicle owners on Thursday. The warning expresses concerns over the cars that were resold without getting the necessary repairs under a previous safety recall. The recalls go as far back as 1999 and include about 17.5 vehicles sold under the Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda brands.

This warning by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is related to 17.5 million Ford vehicles involved in recalls due to a defective cruise-control system. The said defective cruise-control system could cause a fire after the engine is switched off. The NHTSA urges the current owners of the used Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda brand cars to contact the Ford to get the repairs. There may be millions of vehicles out on the road with the defect but according to the NHTSA, Ford has been systematically contacting owners about the recalls.

It is entirely possible that many of the affected vehicles entered the used car market and the used car buyers are supposed to know if the vehicles they purchased had ever been recalled. The NHTSA is urging those consumers who may have bought these recalled vehicles in the used-car market to check if the repairs were actually done earlier.

Following is the list of the vehicles most likely carrying the defect with them as used cars:

1992-2003 E Series (all including Econolines); 1992-1998 Crown Victoria/Grand Marquis/Town Car; 1993-97 Ford F Series (>8500GVW Diesel), 1993-2003 F Series (150-550); 2003-2004 Lightning; 2002-2003 Blackwood; 1993-1997 F Series (>8500GVW Diesel); 1999-2003 F Series (>8500GVW Diesel); 1993-1995 Taurus SHO; 1993-1998 Mark VIII; 1993-1996 Bronco; 1994-2002 F53 Motorhome; 1994 Mercury Capri; 1995-2003 Ranger; 1995-2002 Explorer; 2001-2002 Explorer Sport & Sport Trac; 1995-2002 Mountaineer; 1995-2003 Windstar; 1997-2002 Expedition; 1998-2002 Navigator; 1998-2002 Mazda-B-Series; 2000-2003 Excursion. 1994-2002 Ford F53 motor home,1995-2003 Ford Ranger, 2002-2003 Lincoln Blackwood and 2003-2004 Ford SVT Lightning.

These Ford vehicles were previously recalled for defective cruise control system.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration sent out a reminder on Thursday to owners of these Ford Motor vehicles previously recalled for faulty cruise control systems. According to the NHTSA, if the issue is not remedied in the erstwhile recalled cars they would catch fire, even if the engine is switched off. The faulty 'cruise control disconnect switch' in the unattended vehicle can overheat and get ignited while in the parking.

The NHTSA is more apprehensive of the recalled vehicles in the used car market because the used car buyers may not be aware of the recall status of vehicles or the repairs done.

The drivers should also keep their eyes open for the following tell-tale warning signs in their cars:

* The cruise control system can not be activated or it has stopped working
* Brake lights stop working
* Low brake fluid, ABS and brake warning lights on the dashboard become dysfunctional
* The driver would find it difficult to drive out of parking area

However, a used Ford car buyer can visit Ford's website and enter the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to check if his Ford car was recalled for the problem and the repairs were made. The driver can find the VIN on the dashboard and on the certification label on the door latch next to the his seat.

Mercury Grand Marquis $82.85 The Mercury Grand Marquis is a fullsize rearwheel drive sedan sold by the Mercury division of the Ford Motor Company. The nameplate has been in use since 1975 and has been a separate car line since 1983. It is essentially Mercurys version of the Ford Crown Victoria with which it shares its Panther platform along with the Lincoln Town Car. Since its introduction, the Grand Marquis has only been available with a V8 engine, and with features such as 6passenger bench seating, it remains one of the last traditional American fullsize cars still available for retail sale; it has even taken the place of its Crown Victoria twin in retail markets (the Crown Victoria has been dropped from nonfleet sales after 2007). The Grand Marquis is presently manufactured at the St. Thomas Assembly Plant in Canada though it was also produced from 1983 to 1985 in Fords St. Louis, Missouri facility.

Ford Crown Victoria $141.79 The Ford Crown Victoria is a rearwheel drive fullsize car first produced by the Ford Motor Company for the North American market in the mid1950s. Its current incarnation has been in production since 1992 at Fords St. Thomas Assembly plant. The Crown Victoria, and its Mercury and Lincoln stablemates, are the only fullframe rearwheeldrive passenger cars built in North America. Beginning with the 2008 model year, it has been available only for fleet sales, mainly in police and taxi form, but also for rental car companies. The Crown Victoria was replaced as Fords flagship with the introduction of the 2005 Ford Five Hundred. However, the 5,424 Crown Victorias sold in January 2007 far exceeded the 3,526 of the newer Five Hundred (rebranded as the Taurus in 2008) which was a more technically advanced fullsize car with similar passenger space and better fuel economy.
