Recall for Ford EXPLORER
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Recall (Jan 31, 1996)
Problem
Vehicle description: multi-purpose passenger vehicles. this is not a safety recall in accordance with federal regulation 573. however, it is deemed a safety improvement campaign by the agency. the campaign will reinforce the bracket attachments of the rear liftgate gas assist cylinders which could pull away from the inside of the liftgate.
Consequence
If a bracket and gas assist cylinder were to detach completely from the liftgate and no longer bear against the liftgate as intended, the remaining assist cylinder would not hold the liftgate in an open position. personal injury could occur.
Resolution
Ford dealers will reinforce the bracket attachments.
Component
Structure: body: hatchback/liftgate: support device
Notes
Ford has decided to conduct a safety improvement service campaign to reinforce the bracket attachments without charge. owners can contact ford at 1-800-392-3673.
