Thread regarding Ford layoffs

Recall of the Week (It's Monday). Golden Goose takes another hit.

How this can be limited to such a small number in each platform makes no sense. Managing a number, not a problem? Recall V2.0 a likelihood.

Ford Motor Company is recalling select 2022 Ford Super Duty F-250, F-350, 2021 Ford F-150, 2021 Ford Expedition, and 2021 Lincoln Navigator models over faulty front-door side-impact pressure sensor modules.

The defect: in affected vehicles, the front-door side-impact pressure sensor modules may have been damaged during supplier assembly, which can cause the side impact airbags to not deploy properly in a crash.

The hazards: a vehicle with a damaged front door side-impact pressure sensor module may not properly respond to a side impact event. This could lead to a degradation or loss of side-impact airbag protection in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Ford is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this issue.

Components: front-door side-impact pressure sensor modules.

Affected vehicles: select 2021 Ford Expedition models built at the Ford Kentucky Truck Plant between July 29th, 2021, and August 2nd, 2021, 2021 Lincoln Navigator models built at the Kentucky Truck Plant between July 29th, 2021, and July 31st, 2021, 2021 Ford F-150 models built at the Ford Dearborn Truck Plant on July 26th, 2021, and 2022 Ford Super Duty models produced at the Kentucky Truck Plant between July 26th, 2021, and July 29th, 2021.

Number of vehicles affected: 777 vehicles, including:

328 Super Duty models
78 F-150 models
342 Expedition models
29 Navigator models
The fix: dealers will replace the driver and passenger front door side impact sensors.

Owners should: wait for communications from Ford, which will begin on November 1st, 2021. The Ford reference number for this recall is 21C26.

Who cares about Detroit was your original comment Mr. Farley. Cash down $1B YOY and we tell the street that’ we are profitable based on investments. House of cards but you will get your bonus based on stock price.

By the way, Ford customers care.

I didn’t realize you visited the site Mr. Farley.

Stockholders will certainly look at your 3Q financials. Be interesting to see your spin on warranty costs, forced shutdowns, huge inventory, and more of the non-GAAP valuations.

As you suggest, stock prices will be followed closely.

Thanks for the PSA.

Keep hoping and wishing for the worst as you watch the stock increase in value. Did you know that it has almost doubled this year. Wonder why?

You do understand people invest in a company that has growth potential which intern increases the stock price.

I guess is not too many people really care about the minor issue the company may have. The information you post is all in the public domain and easy to find.

FMC will be here long after your grandson or daughter follow in your ill chosen career and continue writing negative blogs about this or any other company that you are paid to attack.

Regardless of what you post, lots of people like the company. You are in the voiceless minority. Except on this website.

Please have you and all your paid associates give me negatives.

The more the better, it only serves to validate my comments.

My record so far is 9.

From earlier this year (March 2021):

Ford is recalling around 2.6 million cars in the US starting April 1 to replace driver's side front Takata airbag inflators that could rupture.

Ford proceeded with the safety recall after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in January denied a petition the company filed in 2017 arguing the recall was not warranted.

The company maintained in a statement Friday that it believes the recall was unnecessary because the inflators in this tranche of cars operate differently that those that prompted the world's largest-ever auto safety recall.

More than 42 million US vehicles by 19 automakers with Takata air bag inflators have been recalled over the past few years due to concerns the inflators could rupture during airbag deployment, spewing potentially deadly metal fragments. Takata inflators have led to more than two dozen deaths and hundreds of injuries worldwide.

The cost of the recall action is estimated to be about $610 million, Ford said in a January regulatory filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Ford did not respond to Insider's request for further comment.

The company is also recalling 274,737 of the affected vehicles in Canada and 46,078 vehicles in Mexico, according to Ford's statement. Dealers are expected to replace the driver-side airbag inflator or airbag module.

Car models include the Ford Fusion 2006-2012, Ford Edge 2007-2010, Ford Ranger 2007-2011, Mercury Milan 2006-2011, Lincoln Zephyr/MKZ 2006-2012, and Lincoln MKX 2007-2010.

Separately, Ford is also recalling 15,769 vehicles in the US over faulty tires, 3,082 vehicles in Canada, and 138 in Mexico.

A break may happen on the sidewall of the tire leading to sudden air loss or a belt edge separation which could cause partial or full belt loss and increasing the risk of a crash, Ford said citing a safety report by the Continental Tire of America.

The company said that it is not aware of any accident or injury related to this issue.

The recalled car models include Ford F-250 and F-350 select 2018-2020, F-150 select 2018, and Ford Escape select 2019.
