Equipment Vehicle recall #18V592000 · 2018 · 49,197 vehicles
What's wrong: Cords with part numbers fm58-10b706-aa, fm58-10b706-ab, fm58-10b706-ac, fm58-10b706-ad, fm58-10b706-ae and fm58-10b706-af were manufactured without thermistors, and during vehicle charging, increased resistance in the house's outlet or wiring can cause the cord to overheat and melt.
Why it matters: An overheated cord can increase the risk of a fire.
The fix: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the current cord with a new 120v convenience cord with a thermistor, free of charge. The recall began January 18, 2019.
