US Launches Investigation into More Than 1.2 Million Ford Explorer Vehicles

The US road safety agency has opened an investigation into more than 1.2 million Ford Explorer vehicles. The cause is incidents of side airbags deploying unexpectedly, resulting in several passengers suffering severe burns.
The case concerns Explorers manufactured between 2021 and 2026, including models intended for police use.
The agency received complaints from eight drivers, along with information about four more similar incidents. Several people reportedly suffered second- and third-degree burns.
It is not yet clear whether Ford will be required to recall these vehicles for service and fix the problem. This will depend on the outcome of the investigation.
