R2D2 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Your vehicle MAY be involved in a safety recall and MAY create a safety risk for you or your passengers. If left unrepaired, a potential safety defect could lead to injury or even death. Safety defects must be repaired by a dealer at no cost to you. Why am I getting this email? You are receiving this message because you requested to be notified by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) if there is a safety recall that may affect your vehicle. The following may apply to one or more of your vehicles if your vehicle is listed below. Click on the NHTSA Recall ID Number below to read more about the safety issue and the reason for the recall. To find out if your specific passenger vehicle is included in the recall, use our VIN Look-up Tool. NHTSA Recall ID Number : 19V632 Manufacturer : Ford Motor Company Subject : Steering Gear Motor May Detach Make Model Model Years FORD EDGE 2015-2016 FORD FUSION 2013-2016 LINCOLN MKX 2016 LINCOLN MKZ 2013-2016 What is a recall? When a manufacturer or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) determines that a vehicle creates an unreasonable risk to safety or fails to meet minimum safety standards, the manufacturer is required to fix that vehicle at no cost to the owner. That can be done by repairing it, replacing it, offering a refund (for equipment) or, in rare cases, repurchasing the car. What should I do if my vehicle is included in this recall? If your vehicle is included in this recall, it is very important that you get it fixed as soon as possible given the potential danger to you and your passengers if it is not addressed. You should receive a separate letter in the mail from the vehicle manufacturer, notifying you of the recall and explaining when the remedy will be available, whom to contact to repair your vehicle, and to remind you that the repair will be done at no charge to you. If you believe your vehicle is included in the recall, but you do not receive a letter in the mail from the vehicle manufacturer, please call NHTSA's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236, or contact your vehicle manufacturer or dealership. Thank you for your attention to this important safety matter and for your commitment to helping save lives on America's roadways.

jmcgliss Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Thanks for posting. Our 2015 shows two open recalls from August 2019 - the seat belt pretensioners and steering gear bolts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drolds1 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 This is the 2nd time for this one. My 2014 was recalled for this years ago. Looks like it was expanded. https://ford.oemdtc.com/1684/15s14-steering-gear-motor-bolt-corrosion-2013-2015-ford-fusion-lincoln-mkz-2015-ford-edge-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
