The vehicles which are affected were built during October 15, 2009 and May 19 of last year. The edge of the shield of the throttle body may come into contact with the fuel line and cause it to chaff. This could lead to a fuel leak and odor arising. In case of an ignition source being present, there could also be a fire. To make sure about your vehicles condition, you can check the build date of your car which you will find on a label attached to the doorjamb on the driver’s side.

The recall of these Ford vehicles is expected to take place from Monday. Dealers will then trim the affected trucks’ shield of the throttle body so that it is not too close to the fuel line. They will also check these fuel lines for other signs of damage or wear and will also replace them if necessary free of charge. Owners of these vehicles can also contact Ford or the hotline number of NHTSA. Ford has also recalled 8,022 vehicles of the model year 2011, which also includes some pick up trucks of the Ford F Series.

The reason behind this recall according to the NHTSA is because of an electrical short which can develop in the module of the body control and result in a fire. The vehicles which are being recalled are that of the 2011 F-250, F-150, F-450, F-350, F-550, Ford Edge as well as Lincoln MKX. These vehicles were built from the period of October 25 to November 20 of last year.

These affected vehicles were also inspected previously as a part of their previous recall campaign, which made use of a diagnostic system for checking of the module of the body control needed a replacement, based upon its serial number. However, the custom software of the system did not read the proper characters set and hence could not ascertain if a replacement was needed for the module of the body control.
