Default Ford adds 4.5M vehicles to defective switch recall

Blackbird24, what say you? Just wondering as to why this was not mentioned since you love to post recalls?

DETROIT (AP) -- Ford Motor Co. said Tuesday it will add 4.5 million older-model vehicles to the long list of those recalled because a defective cruise control switch could cause a fire.

The latest voluntary action pushes Ford's total recall due to faulty switches to 14.3 million registered vehicles over 10 years, capping the company's largest cumulative recall in history involving a single problem.

I say I only report up-to-date news. This is old news. Very old.

Besides, it doesn't take detective work to uncover domestic recalls. They are plastered on the front page of every news outlet around.

I did. In fact, i've known about this for some time now. But that's why I posted what I did. Just because the report has a newer date doesn't mean you are reporting recent news.
