Ford recalls more than 8.5 lakh vehicles in U.S. over fuel pump defect

Ford Motor is recalling 8,50,318 vehicles in the U.S. due to a potential low-pressure fuel pump failure, which could cause an engine stall, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Thursday (July 10, 2025).

The auto safety authority said it received six consumer complaints alleging loss of power due to pump failure and estimates that 10% of the potentially affected vehicles have the defect.

The recall affects certain models of Lincoln Aviator, F-150 trucks and Mustang vehicles, among others. Ford is still developing the remedy.
