Ford is recalling more than one million trucks and cars for a wiper switch problem that has
caused more than 40 vehicle fires. The problem seems to be in the delay function, which
overheats. Various 2000 and 2001 models, including Expedition sport-utility vehicles and
Taurus sedans, are being recalled. Owners who have not received a recall can check with
their dealers to determine if their vehicle is included.
