Ford recalling more than 655,000 trucks over hose
Wednesday May 14, 12:22 pm ET Ford recalling more than 655,000 Ford F-150 and Lincoln Mark LT pickup trucks to fix a hose
The automaker is issuing the recall of 2005-2006 versions of the trucks with 5.4 liter 3-valve engines. That's according to a posting Wednesday on the Web site of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Ford spokesman Wes Sherwood says more than 600,000 of the trucks are in the United States and about 50,000 are in Canada. About 1,500 are in other countries around the world.
Ford says there have been 11 minor accidents and no injuries tied to the issue.
Dealers will replace the hose at no charge to consumers. Owners are expected to be notified in late June, and the recall is expected to begin in July.
For more information, owners can contact Ford at (800) 392-3673.
Why are they waiting until June to notify owners and beginning the recall in July? Why not begin today?
***Yall be careful!***
