Ford Recalls Another 156,000 Fiestas for Door Related Problems

Ford Motor Company has recalled an additional 156,000 Fiestas for doors that can fly open. This was in response to pressure from government regulators. In the last one week, Ford has recalled more than 1.1 million vehicles for five different problems.

On the 29^th of April, Ford issued four recalls for problems including steering gear bolts that can corrode and crack, causing vehicles to stall. Those recalls covered nearly 600,000 vehicles which included 91 of the redesigned 2015 F-150 pickup.

The expansion comes four days after the original recall, which covered about 390,000 Fiestas, Fusions and Lincoln MKZs.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration requested Ford to add Fiestas from the 2011 model year as it previously recalled those from 2012 through 2014

Since mid-2014, Ford has issued four recalls for door-latch problems, covering more than 1.5 million vehicles.
