Ford Motor Co. is preparing to drop AM radio from most of its new vehicles next year, according to a report.

The Detroit-based automaker confirmed the move to the Detroit Free Press on April 1, despite concerns from federal officials over American drivers losing access to safety alert broadcasts over the airwaves.
