Recall campaigns 4 of 4

STRUCTURE:EXTERIOR TRIM

Door trim that detaches while driving can create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

20V0720002020-02-10

A fractured rear toe link will cause a sudden change in vehicle handling and increase the risk of a crash.

18V1410002018-03-01

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION

If the key is removed from the ignition while the vehicle is not in the PARK position and the parking brake is not applied, the vehicle may roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.

STEERING

If the heat shield detaches, the steering gear may overheat, increasing the steering effort required by the driver, especially at lower speeds, and increasing the risk of a crash.

Two 2017 FORD TAURUSs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
