Ford Escape recalls: 78 US campaigns

ShareWhatsAppFacebookXEmail

2 of these notices were reworded after they were announced. The authority changed the remedy on 26V091 and 25V789. The register shows only the current wording. This site keeps both, with the date each was read and a fingerprint of the text, so the change is provable.

Campaigns naming each model year, as filed with NHTSA

This page lists every US recall campaign that named the Ford Escape for model year 2010 or later, as filed with NHTSA. It counts 78 campaigns. CarsMultiverse is an independent site, not an authority. The list was read from the NHTSA flat file FLAT_RCL_POST_2010.txt (file dated 10 September 2026) and this index was built on 11 September 2026. Each campaign links to the site's own page for it, where one exists, or to the notice at NHTSA.
