1. 08V051000Received 4 Feb 2008. 225,000 units.

   Vehicle Speed Control / Cruise Control

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   Ford is recalling 225,000 my 1992-2003 econoline, my 1993-1995 taurus sho, my 1992-1998 crown victoria, my 1993 bronco, f-series, my 1995-1997 f-series super duty stripped chassis, my 1992-1998 mercury grand marquis, and my 1992-1995 lincoln town car vehicles. The affected vehicles were previously repaired using a wiring harness that is not compatible with the vehicle circuit polarity.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   As a result, the fuse is located in the output circuit rather than in the intended input power feed circuit, and may not offer the intended protection in the event of an electrical short to ground.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Dealers will install a new wiring harness, or replace the mating electrical component. The recall began on february 18, 2008. Owners may contact ford at 1-800-392-3673.

   Report filed by FORD MOTOR COMPANY. Manufacturer campaign number 08S01. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 18 Feb 2008.

2. 07V336000Received 3 Aug 2007. 3,600,000 units.

   Vehicle Speed Control

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   On certain pickup trucks, passenger vehicles, sport utility vehicles, and motor homes chassis, the speed control deactivation switch may, under certain conditions, leak internally and then overheat, smoke, or burn.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   This could result in an underhood fire.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Dealers will install a fused wiring harness. Owners of the passenger cars included in this campaign will be instructed to return their vehicles to their dealers to have the speed control deactivation switch disconnected as an interim repair. As soon as repair parts are available (expected october 2007), owners will be instructed to return to the dealers for installation of a fused wiring harness. The recall began on august 13, 2007, and mailing completed by september 19, 2007. Owners may contact ford at 1-888-222-2751.

   Report filed by FORD MOTOR COMPANY. Manufacturer campaign number 05S28. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 13 Aug 2007.

3. 94V169001Received 7 Sep 1994. 835,791 units.

   Parking Brake / Conventional

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   The parking brake control self-adjust pawl does not line up properly with the self-adjust rachet causing the pawl to slip over one or more teeth in the rachet.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   When the above occurs, it can result in parking brake system ineffectiveness. The parking brake will not hold the vehicle, causing the vehicle to roll freely, if the transmission is not left in gear.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   A wedge will be installed which will serve to lock the parking brake self-adjust mechanism pawl into engagement with the rachet. Also, owners will be advised to release and reapply the parking brake whenever tooth skip occurs and will be reminded to always turn off the engine and leave the vehicle in gear when the vehicle is parked.

   Report filed by FORD MOTOR COMPANY. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 16 Dec 1994.

4. 94V018000Received 2 Jan 1994. 370,000 units.

   Structure / Body / Bumpers

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   The u-clip style nuts that retain the front bumpers to the front bumper inner arms can fracture.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If one of the u-clip nuts fractures, the bumper will loosen and rattle causing fracture of the remaining u-clip nuts, resulting in separation of the bumper from the vehicle. If the bumper were to detach from the vehicle while it is being driven, a vehicle collision could result.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Inspection and replacement of the four u-clip nuts and the associated bolts.

   Report filed by FORD MOTOR COMPANY. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 18 Feb 1994.

5. 93V089000Received 17 May 1993. 1,389 units.

   Power Train / Transfer Case (4-Wheel Drive)

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   The transfer cases have been built with the wrong electric shift motor. The transfer cases can slip out of the 4 x 4 high gear position during coasting in forward gears or with power applied in reverse gear.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If this occurs, the vehicle can roll freely as if inneutral position regardless of the transmission gear selector position. This canresult in loss of vehicle control and an accident.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Replace defective transfer cases with the correct version.

   Report filed by FORD MOTOR COMPANY. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 9 Jul 1993.
