See If Your Ford or Lincoln Is Among 850K in a Fuel Pump Recall
The recall population includes certain 2021–23 Ford Bronco, Explorer and Lincoln Aviator SUVs and Ford F-250, F-350, and F-450, and F-550 SD trucks, and 2021–22 Lincoln Navigator, Ford F-150, and Mustang vehicles.
Ford is still working on a remedy for the recall issue and will notify owners when a solution is found.
Ford has recalled 850,318 vehicles due to a potential issue that can cause the low-pressure fuel pump to fail, resulting in the engine stalling while driving. The automaker said it is not aware of any reports of accidents or injuries related to the recall.

According to documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the recall population includes some 2021–23 Ford Bronco, Explorer and Lincoln Aviator SUVs and Ford F-250, F-350, and F-450, and F-550 SD trucks, and 2021–22 Lincoln Navigator, Ford F-150, and Mustang vehicles. Of the total recall population, Ford estimates 10 percent may be affected by the issue.
The issue, according to the recall documents, is twofold. One issue stems from contamination of the jet pump in low-fuel situations, which can lead to loss of fuel pressure and flow from the low-pressure fuel pump. The other stems from reduced fuel pump internal clearances, which can increase internal friction and sensitivity to vapor lock. Without proper pressure, the flow and fuel delivery to the engine can be starved, leading the engine to stall while driving.
Ford
Customers may become aware of the fuel pump issue through poor engine performance, including misfiring or running rough. The check engine light may also illuminate. Recall documents show that fuel pump failure is more likely to occur in low-fuel or warm-weather situations.
Ford is still working on a remedy for the recall issue. Initial owner notification letters will be mailed on July 14, with secondary letters planned for when a remedy is available. Owners can check the NHTSA recalls site to see if their vehicle is part of the recall population.

Cadillac is joining the top motorsport series in 2026 as an 11th team and Mick Schumacher believes the American carmaker have "an unbelievable project" and "a great history." There's been much speculation about who will take the two Cadillac seats. Team principal Graeme Lowdon has previously confirmed that Schumacher is among the candidates. "It's an honour to be part of it, to negotiate with them, and a great position to be in," Schumacher said. Advertisement He made his F1 debut in 2021 with Haas and raced for the US team until 2022, but didn't have his contract extended.

My Test-Drive in a Waabi Driverless Big Rig
Raquel Urtasun spent a few days in June working from a large tent in the Arizona desert. It came with a number of un-tentlike amenities, such as indoor plumbing and air conditioning to provide relief from the 110F heat, but its main appeal to Urtasun, who runs the self-driving truck startup Waabi, was its proximity to a 2-mile-long track where she can test her company's hulking autonomous vehicles. Both tent and track are located inside a private facility where companies can perform critical, and sometimes perilous, field research, from ramming cars into one another to carrying out controlled explosions. (To visit, I had to sign one form promising not to discuss certain details of any tests I happened to witness and another saying I was responsible for any Gila monster bites I might suffer.) Waabi's tests don't have the inherent drama of blowing things up, but they're impressive in their own way, consisting of 17-ton driverless trucks maneuvering around physical and virtual obstacles. Urtasun founded the startup in 2021, years after the first companies began trying in earnest to build self-driving vehicles. The industry-standard formula was to drive around as an artificial intelligence system tracks what happens so it can learn from the experience. Waabi was launched with the idea that it could quickly catch up by using digital simulation. It created a sort of metaverse for trucks that Urtasun has dubbed 'Waabi World,' a name the company says is in no way a reference to the similarly named theme park in National Lampoon's Vacation.
