Ford has issued over 30 recalls since late May – These are all the models and years of manufacture affected by the massive recall

Since late May, Ford has issued over 30 recalls affecting hundreds of thousands of vehicles. The problems range from fuel pump failures to rearview camera glitches. Here’s what’s going on, how to check your car, and what to do next.

Why so many recalls?

• High safety standards: Ford says these recalls are part of an aggressive plan to spot and fix issues fast.
  
• Follow-up recalls: About a third are follow-ups ensuring previous fixes were done—more checks, less worry.
  
• Better for drivers: Fixing small issues early helps avoid bigger, costlier problems later.
  

Ford says this extra effort will improve quality and keep drivers safer.

How to see if you’re affected

• Look for a letter from Ford in your mailbox about a recall.
  
• Go to the NHTSA website and enter your VIN (17-character code on your dashboard or registration) to check recalls.
  
• You can also call your local Ford dealer with your VIN to find out.
