Another recall in the United States has hit Ford. The Ford Motor Company is now experiencing issues with its tailgate.

On Friday, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced that Ford was recalling 108,762 cars in the United States because of fault in a tailgate hinge cover, which is not correctly fastened and may fall off the car.

Some 2020–2022 and 2025 Ford Escape models are impacted by the recall. According to the official, Ford-approved mechanics will evaluate the tailgate hinge covers and fix them if they are missing, poorly installed, or not installed at all. The service is free of charge.

The auto safety authority has also announced that Ford is recalling around 12,000 Lincoln MKT vehicles manufactured between 2016 and 2019. The reason behind this recall is that the trim on the center (B) pillars of the driver’s and front passenger’s doors has the potential to break off, hence increasing the likelihood of a crash.
