Ford is recalling nearly 1.3 million vehicles across the U.S. because of safety issues with their brake hoses, according to documents from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It's also recalling about 220,000 F-150 pickups due to faulty windshield wiper arms.
The bigger recall affects Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans with model years from 2013 and 2018, for what the regulator describes as "suspect front brake jounce hoses."

..."Owners who are experiencing problems should call their dealer, Ford says. There are some parts already available for repairs. The company says only about 2% of the vehicles will have brake hose leaks.
Ford says it’s aware of one crash with no mention of injuries due to the problem.
The second recall covers more than 222,000 F-150 pickups from 2021. The windshield wiper arms can break.
Dealers will replace the arms if needed. Owners will be notified starting March 27."
