Hell of a way to bury the announcement.

coffeebiscuit ,

ABC reports that Ford has ordered a recall for almost 43,000 small SUVs due to a potential risk of fire.

Y’all call that a small suv? … damn

50MYT ,

Yeah it’s a small sub set of the total - only a specific engine combination made between x and y dates.

It’s for the Bronco Sport and the Escape. It is not the Bronco pictured.

    Not sure how you classify sizes. It’s small for an SUV in markets where it’s called Escape (and not Kuga). It’s average for a crossover (CUV), it’s actual class. It has the same footprint as a Focus wagon (6" longer than a hatchback) and 9" taller. It’s a foot shorter than a Fusion sedan. I find passenger space to be annoyingly upright and couldn’t get comfortable driving one for more than an hour despite being under 6ft. It’s definitely small by American standards.

    OJ Simpson literally cursed that car model forever.

    My favorite take was the white green 4x4 in the Cruisin’ USA arcade game had a license plate that said GUILTY.

    Trying to find a screenshot cuz that’s outstanding if true, but not having any luck. Please post if you can find one!

    Almost impossible to find something without installing MAME and taking a screenshot myself. But I got a blurry cap of the back of the 4x4 (which is green, not white):

    You can barely make out the text, which was removed from the console versions of the game.

    Add: And for the first time ever, I now notice that right above the plate it literally says Jeep.

    Ford lawyer: “If the fuel injectors don’t fit then you must acquit.”

    Judge: “Um, not sure that helps your case here.”

    If the fuel injectors burn at all, then you must recall.
