Ford to recall 413,000 SUVs in US over steering risk: NHTSA

​Ford is recalling ​412,774 Explorer SUVs in the U.S., citing an issue ‌with rear ⁠suspension toe ⁠links, which may ​fracture, leading to a loss ​of steering control, the U.S. National Highway ​Traffic Safety ⁠Administration said on ‌Tuesday.

The regulator ​suggested ​that the ⁠dealers replace the toe links free ​of charge as ​a remedy for the affected vehicles.

Separately, Ford will also recall an ‌additional 40,655 vehicles in the U.S. over ​battery ​failures ⁠and defects with brake pedals, which increase the risk of ​a crash.
