Ford issues recalls for 221,000 vehicles.

The AP (1/29) reports that Ford issued two recalls for 221,000 total vehicles. The first recall included 205,000 2010-2013 Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and its Police Interceptor models over concerns that “a door latch spring can become unseated, allowing the door to unlatch in a side-impact crash.” The second covered 16,000 2014 Transit Connect small vans because the “seat belt fasteners can loosen.” The AP reports that Ford says it is not aware of any crashes or injuries caused by either defect.
