Canada Orders Recall of Over 300,000 Ford Vehicles
A news agency disclosed that official notices from Transport Canada covering multiple Ford models identified a critical defect: engine block heaters on affected vehicles may leak coolant, creating dangerous conditions.
When coolant seepage occurs, the block heater could experience a short circuit upon being plugged in, according to the report.
Ford will notify affected owners through postal mail, instructing them to bring their vehicles to authorized dealerships for block heater replacement, the outlet added.
Until repairs are finalized, Ford vehicle owners should immediately cease using their engine block heaters, the news agency said.
The recall affects a substantial portion of Ford's Canadian fleet, underscoring escalating safety concerns surrounding automotive electrical systems and fire prevention. Authorities have not disclosed whether any injuries or property damage has occurred from the defect.
