Forward Collision Avoidance › Adaptive Cruise Control

Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company

Reported Jun 14, 2024

What is recalled

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Escape two-wheel drive vehicles equipped with adaptive cruise control. The cruise control radar module was misaligned during production.
