Ford F-150 is easily one of the biggest success stories in the automotive world. The full-size pickup truck sells like hotcakes in the United States. So when the time has come to refresh the F-150 for 2021, Ford has not completely overhauled the proven design. Instead, they have chosen to skip radical exterior changes for major upgrades under the skin, including the addition of features to make the workhorse an even better one.
As activity in the automotive market has plummeted due to the pandemic, the month of May registered a very low number of recalls than usual. Here is the list.
The first-generation Ford Mustang had many variations after it debuted more than half a decade ago. One of the iterations was the fastback coupe that debuted in the late-1960s, and available in hopped-up Mach 1 form. The latter now returns as a trim level for the current Mustang, with a naturally aspirated 5.0-litre V8.
Even when the global car market is going through a slump, news about recalls is flooding in. Let us have a look at which manufacturers have announced recalls in the past month.

Using legendary monikers to sell new models is not a new strategy. A lot of manufacturers have been letting their new offerings ride this wave of nostalgia. But this can sometimes end up being quite controversial, depending on the model they slap their name onto. You saw it happening when Mitsubishi revived the Eclipse name on a crossover and when Chevy slapped the Blazer name on yet another crossover. And now, Ford has taken it to an all-new level by launching the Ford Mustang Mach-E, an electric crossover.
It’s not often that the launch of a new car is held in the basement. But there we were, in the underground parking lot of the Ford Middle East HQ, getting an exclusive walk-around of the all-new 2020 Explorer. Only two US-spec pre-production cars are in the country at the moment, in Hybrid trim, and we were among the first journos to get a look at them.
