Ford is issuing another recall encompassing nearly 200,000 full-size SUVs. A defective motor blower can spark a fire originating from under the glovebox on the passenger side of the cabin, the automaker disclosed to the NHTSA this week. The recall affects 198,482 Ford Expeditions and Lincoln Navigators from the 2015-2017 model years. The bulk of the recall population pertains to the Expedition, with 35,229 Navigators affected. The recalled vehicles were built between January 2014 and June 2017.
