    NHTSA Recall 25V467 was issued in July 2025. It has been over 3 months of constant fear for under-hood fire from possible fuel injector crack. My family's safety has been at risk long enough, this needs a permanent fix please!

    My vehicle has had a recall for awhile and I have been unable to drive because it has a fuel injector recall and no parts have been made and they don’t know when they’re going to be made. I feel that if they can’t make the parts that they need to give me another vehicle so that I am able to drive to work or appointments instead of having to get rides, I have contacted my Ford dealership locally and they still have no idea when parts are going to be made

    In July 2025 recall #25V467 was issued on my vehicle. The safety risk of this recall is that at any point fuel can accumulate near the engine or exhaust components and ignite resulting in an under-hood fire “increasing the risk of injury”. It has been over 3 months now and no remedy yet. Since that recall came out, I am scared for my safety and the safety of my children and anyone else who rides in my vehicle because I never know if/when a fire may start. I rely on my vehicle and so do my kids to get to and from places. I am a single mother with no options to drive a different vehicle until a remedy comes out. In addition to being scared, I feel helpless whenever I drive my vehicle and pray each time that I arrive safely to my destination.
