Don't worry.

The interest in Ford recalls is so incredibly low, the ad revenue generated by views isn't enough to task an intern to write an article about it at any of the auto blogs, or news outlets. Ford is literally immune to bad press because the confidence is so low, it's already objectively baked in.

You forgot the best part. According to the Ford website, recall parts won't be available until the third quarter of 2023.

@twa is clearly a troll. I laughed.

@twa+1lGr3Wa1 is really something. Talking/writing without knowing what regen brake is and what the limitations of regen brake are.

EV's have regen braking, making a recall like this less critical. Technology by itself will improve quality as you can see.

Ford sure lives up to their claim.
