Ford recalling 92,000 vehicles to fix driveshaft

7/8/2014

DETROIT — Ford Motor Co. is recalling about 92,000 sedans and crossovers in North America because of a driveshaft problem that can cause drivers to “experience the loss of drive function” suddenly, the automaker said Monday.

The models covered by the recall are the 2013-14 Ford Taurus, police interceptor sedans and Flex; the Lincoln MKT and MKS, and the 2012-14 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX. About 83,000 of the vehicles are in the United States.

The problem was detected through warranty claims, a Ford spokesman said.
