A problem with the fuel line on certain examples of the Ford Edge (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/edge/) has prompted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/nhtsa/) to issue a recall (http://www.autoblog.com/category/recalls-tsbs/). The issue revolves around the metal housing on the fuel line pulse damper, which was apparently improperly manufactured in the first place and is prone to crack in certain circumstances, leading to a fuel leak. And as we all know, a fuel leak is not a good thing.
The problem affects model year 2012 and 2013 Edge crossovers equipped with the 2.0-liter engine and manufactured between September 2, 2010 and April 25, 2013 - a total of 27,933 units. Although the Lincoln MKX (http://www.autoblog.com/lincoln/mkx/) is closely related to the Edge, since it isn't offered with the same engine (to which the problem is related), the recall does not include the premium-badged version. See the recall notice below (http://www.mnfords.com/2014/01/16/ford-edge-fuel-line-recall/#continued) for further details.Continue reading Ford calling in 28k Edge crossovers over fuel line leak (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/01/16/ford-recall-28k-edge-crossovers-over-fuel-line-leak/)
