Ford recalls hundreds of SUVs for door defect that can increase injury risk in crash.

Roadshow (9/14, Krok, 3.05M) reports that Ford is recalling 555 2018 Ford Edge and 2018 Lincoln MKX SUVs built between July 27 and July 31 of this year at the Oakville Assembly Plant in Ontario, Canada. According to the story, “the striker bolts, which are the bolts that the door latch connects to when closed, might be 5 millimeters shorter than they’re supposed to be,” which could result in the doors opening “in the event of a crash, which could increase the risk of injury.” Owners of affected vehicles can take them to a Ford dealership for repairs.
