Ford recalling 33,000 vehicles to replace… seat recliner?

Posted by: admin | Comments (0)

Filed under: Recalls , Safety , Ford Ford has announced a recall of some 33,000 vehicles due to faulty front seat manual reclining mechanisms. The recall affects certain 2010 Ford Fusion , Explorer and Explorer SportTrac models, as well as 2010 Mercury Mountaineer and Milan vehicles. Both the Blue Oval and NHTSA are concerned that during an accident the mechanisms could fail and cause the back of the seat to move toward the rear of the vehicle, resulting in a possible injury. While no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect, NHTSA found that the seats don’t meet federal standards for head restraints and must be replaced

Posted by: admin | Comments (0)

Filed under: Etc. , Marketing/Advertising , Ford , Humor Click above to peek inside the suggestion box Ford has officially stirred up a mess of snakes by inviting consumers to submit their ideas on how to improve the company’s vehicles to its website at TheFordStory.com . We’ve spent the better part of a day sifting through what the world has to say to Ford, and though we expected bucket loads of the web’s own brand of vitriol, so far the comments were largely constructive.

Report: Q1 revenue, sales up at Ford on strong F-Series, Fusion sales

Posted by: admin | Comments (0)

Filed under: Car Buying , Ford , Earnings/Financials By most accounts, Ford had a pretty good first quarter. Sales were up 37 percent versus the first three months of 2009, and The Blue Oval’s market share rose an impressive 2.7 percentage points during the period. According to a report in USA Today , Ford President Mark Fields says that the extra showroom traffic led to added revenue for the company. And while added revenue doesn’t always translate into increased profits, the extra cash generated by increased sales makes an “in the black” first quarter far more likely.
