MoCI orders recall of Lincoln, Ford and Kia vehicle models
Tribune News Network Doha The Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MoCI), in cooperation with Almana Motors Company, the authorised dealer for Ford and Lincoln vehicles, has announced the recall of Lincoln Aviator and Nautilus (2021–2022 models), as well as Ford Explorer and Bronco (2021 model). The recall is due to the possibility that an engine valve in some affected vehicles may crack, potentially resulting in engine failure and a loss of motive power. Additionally, in collaboration with Al-Attiya Motors and Trading Company, the authorised dealer for Kia vehicles, the MoCI has recalled the Kia Sportage 2025 model. The recall is attributed to a possible fuel leak caused by a poorly manufactured high-pressure fuel pipe, which could lead to a fire in the engine compartment or reduced engine performance. The ministry said the recall campaign comes within the framework of its ongoing efforts to protect consumers and ensure that car dealers follow up on vehicle defects and repairs. The ministry added that it will coordinate with the dealer to follow up on the maintenance and repair works and will communicate with customers to ensure that the necessary repairs are carried out. The ministry has urged all customers to report any violations to its Consumer Protection and Anti-Commercial Fraud Department, which processes complaints, inquiries, and suggestions through the following channels: Call Centre: 16001; Email:

Ford issues yet another recall for a potentially dangerous issue
Ford (F) is having a strong sales year. Thanks to buyers who rushed to the dealership to beat the 25% auto tariffs that President Donald Trump enacted in April, many auto industry giants are having a strong 2025. Car buyers, motivated by the threat of tariffs making cars cost more down the road, and car sellers, who used incentive programs to get people through the door, have coalesced to create a vibrant buyer's market. Related: Ford debuts plan to increase sales that car buyers will love Ford has been running its "From America, For America" campaign to provide customers with employee pricing. Ford increased sales in the year's first half by 6.6% to 1.11 million units. Even its struggling EV lineup saw a nearly 15% increase to 156,509 units. Total vehicle sales in the second quarter were up more than 14%. Now, the company is introducing its 0-0-0 summer sales event, featuring zero down payment, zero percent interest for 48 months, and zero payments in the first 90 days of the contract to attract even more customers. But even though the company's sales are humming, it is still encountering old problems. Ford issued its second recall in as many weeks after recalling more than 850,000 vehicles across the country due to a low-pressure fuel pump that can fail, potentially causing the engine to stall. Ford will mail the issue to 2021-2023 Bronco, Explorer, Lincoln Aviator, F-250 SD, F-350 SD, F-450 SD, F-550 SD, 2021-2022 Lincoln Navigator, Mustang, F-150, and 2022 Expedition vehicle owners on July 14. A second letter will be sent once a remedy is available. Owners can contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S75. Earlier in July, Ford recalled over 200,000 vehicles due to a software failure that causes the back camera of its cars to malfunction. The defective cameras will either display a blank screen, preventing the driver from getting complete rearview visibility, or continue to show the image even after the driver has finished using it, creating significant confusion.

In the meantime, Ford will notify all vehicle owners who might have been affected by July 28. Affected vehicles include: Bronco Sport, model years 2021-2024EcoSport, model years 2020-2021Edge, model years 2019-2020Escape, model years 2020-2022Expedition, model years 2020-2021Explorer, model years 2020-2024F-150, model years 2019-2020F-250 SD, model years 2020-2022Fusion, model years 2019-2020Maverick, model years 2022-2024Mustang, model years 2019-2023Ranger, model years 2019-2023Transit, model years 2020-2023Transit Connect, model years 2018-2022 Earlier this year, Ford issued eight different recalls affecting some of its popular models. In its most significant recall, 933 Ford Maverick trucks built between August 20, 2021, and October 9, 2023, did not have the proper software update installed when they came in for a prior recall, which caused the digital instrument cluster not to display key safety-related information. Another recall stemming from a prior recall affects 141 Mavericks built between August 18, 2021, and October 6, 2022. These vehicles were not updated correctly after a previous recall to address an issue with the brake lights.

In December 2024, Dearborn-based Ford sought to take charge of improving vehicle quality. That year, data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) showed that the Blue Oval issued 67 recalls in 2024, affecting approximately 4,777,161 vehicles. The previous year, the automaker led the industry with 54 recalls that affected 5,692,135 vehicles in the United States. This was an improvement over the prior year, as it led the industry with 68 recalls in 2022.

Ford recalls more than 850,000 vehicles in U.S. over fuel pump defect
Ford Motor is recalling 850,318 vehicles in the U.S. due to a potential low-pressure fuel pump failure, which could cause an engine stall, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said July 10. A faulty fuel pump can reduce fuel flow from the tank to the engine, causing an engine stall and increasing the risk of a crash, NHTSA said. Ford spokesman Mike Levine said: 'This recall is for certain 2021-2023 model year Ford Explorer, Lincoln Aviator, Ford F-150, Ford Mustang, Ford Bronco, Ford F-Series Super Duty, Lincoln Navigator and Ford Expedition.' NHTSA estimates that 10% of the potentially affected vehicles have the defect. The auto safety authority received six consumer complaints alleging loss of power due to pump failure. Before a fuel pump fails, drivers may notice poor engine performance, including misfiring, rough running, reduced power, or a check engine light, NHTSA said in a notice to dealers. More: Ford recalls more than 300,000 Mach-E EVs warning it could lock out occupants Failures are more likely when fuel levels are low or in hot weather, it added. Ford is still developing a remedy.

Ford Recalls More Than 850,000 Cars: These Models Are Impacted
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Ford has recalled more than 850,000 vehicles across the United States due to a possible defect in the low-pressure fuel pump that could cause engines to stall while driving. The recall, which impacts a wide range of Ford and Lincoln-branded models produced in recent years, was announced by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on July 8. Owners affected by the recall will begin receiving notifications by mail from Monday, July 14, but an official fix has not yet been disclosed by the carmaker. Newsweek contacted Ford for comment by email outside of regular working hours on Friday. A Ford Bronco on display in New York in 2023. A Ford Bronco on display in New York in 2023. NDZ/STAR MAX/IPx Why It Matters Engine stalling while a vehicle is driving can increase the risk of collisions, especially at high speeds or in dense traffic. Although Ford has reported no known accidents or injuries linked to the issue, drivers are being urged to remain vigilant for potential warning signs, including poor engine performance, reduced power or an illuminated check engine light. What To Know Ford indicated that failure of the low-pressure fuel pump could lead to an engine stalling while at rest or driving. The NHTSA said that fuel pump failure is more likely to occur "in low fuel or warm weather and hot fuel conditions in the fuel tank." It added: "Loss of fuel pressure and flow from the low-pressure fuel pump can be due to internal contamination of the jet pump, specifically in low fuel conditions, and reduced fuel pump internal clearances that result in an increase of internal friction and sensitivity to vapor lock." Which Models Are Impacted? The recall affects specific Ford and Lincoln models manufactured in recent years. According to NHTSA documents, these include: 2021–2023 Ford Bronco 2021–2023 Ford Explorer 2021–2023 Lincoln Aviator 2021–2023 Ford F-250 SD, F-350 SD, F-450 SD, and F-550 SD 2021–2022 Lincoln Navigator 2021–2022 Ford Mustang 2021–2022 Ford F-150 Some 2022 Ford Expedition models Ford estimated that roughly 10 percent of the 850,318 vehicles included in the recall may be affected by the faulty fuel pump. What People Are Saying The NHTSA said in its safety recall report: "Prior to fuel pump failure, the customer may experience poor engine performance (misfiring or running rough), a check engine light, or a reduction in engine power. Fuel pump failure is more likely to occur in low fuel or warm weather and hot fuel conditions in the fuel tank." It added in a letter to Ford: "Under 49 U.S.C. § 30112(a)(3), it is illegal for a manufacturer, to sell, offer for sale, import, or introduce or deliver into interstate commerce, a motor vehicle or item of motor vehicle equipment that contains a safety defect once the manufacturer has notified NHTSA about that safety defect. This prohibition does not apply once the motor vehicle or motor vehicle equipment has been remedied according to the manufacturer's instructions." What Happens Next Ford will notify affected owners from July 14 about the potential risks. The carmaker stated that once a solution is available, impacted owners will receive a second letter instructing them on how to obtain a free repair at authorized dealerships. Ongoing updates from Ford and federal safety authorities are expected as work on the remedy progresses. This article includes reporting by The Associated Press.
