Ford Motor Company has issued two recalls affecting 40,655 vehicles, including a “do not drive” order for nearly 16,000 Ford Transit vans for a faulty brake system.
Both recall notices were posted on Feb. 24 to X by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). According to the NHTSA, Ford is recalling 15,965 Transit vans because a cotter pin crucial to the braking system may not have been included during assembly at Ford’s Kansas City Assembly Plant in Clay County, Missouri, which produces the Transit van line and F-150 pickup truck.
