Recalls

Good news: Recall repairs are almost always free. Book with any manufacturer dealer and quote the recall number. Transport Canada’s own wording is that a manufacturer “will almost always make these repairs free of charge”, so being asked to pay for recall work is unusual and worth questioning. Since 2018 the Minister of Transport can order a company to pay for repairs so owners do not bear the cost.

Transport Canada recall 1994157 · manufacturer campaign 94S91

17 October 1994

Transport Canada lists: Bronco 1992–1994 · Explorer 1993–1994 · F Series 1992–1994 · Ranger 1993–1994

What is wrong

NOTE: THIS RECALL AFFECTS VEHICLES WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE PARKING BRAKE CONTROL SELF-ADJUST PAWL MAY SKIP OVER ONE OR MORE TEETH IN THE SELF-ADJUST RATCHET DURING PARKING BRAKE APPLICATION, WHICH COULD PREVENT THE SYSTEM FROM ACHIEVING FULL TENSION. THIS COULD RESULT IN PARKING BRAKE INEFFECTIVENESS WHICH WOULD ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO ROLL FREELY IF IT IS NOT LEFT IN GEAR.

What the dealer will do

A WEDGE WILL BE INSTALLED WHICH WILL SERVE TO LOCK THE PARKING BRAKE SELF-ADJUST MECHANISM PAWL INTO ENGAGEMENT WITH THE RATCHET.

What is wrong

REVISED DOOR LATCH RELEASE CABLES AND WATER SHIELDS WILL BE INSTALLED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.

Source: Transport Canada — Vehicle Recalls Database; NRCan — Fuel consumption ratings. Data current as of 6 August 2026. Running cost uses Ontario average prices (155 ¢/L, 14.5 ¢/kWh), which are hand-maintained estimates. These are average residential rates. A car’s charging is added on top of what your home already uses, so on a tiered, time-of-use or subsidised tariff it is billed at your top rate rather than this average — which makes the real cost higher, especially in the territories.
