The Consumer Memo, 12/30: Ford recalls 15,000 trucks, crossovers; Chrysler recalls trucks, SUVs

Ford is recalling nearly 15,000 trucks and crossovers due to problems with electrical systems that can short and create a fire. The Detroit automaker said Thursday that the recall includes some 2011 model year F-150, F-250, F-350, F-450, F-550, Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX vehicles. A Ford supplier of a control module produced the faulty product over a six-day period.

F-Series trucks are built at the Claycomo plant.

Owners may call Ford at 1-866-436-7332 to see if their vehicle is included in the recall.
