    Ford Recalls 4.5 Million Additional Vehicles in Switch Recall Faulty Part Could Cause Fire; Largest Recall in Ford’S History

    NYS Department of State safetyOFPC ALERT October NY STATE FIRE 2009 Ford Recalls 4.5 Million Additional Vehicles In Switch Recall Faulty Part Could Cause Fire; Largest Recall In Ford’s History Ford Motor Co. says it will add 4.5 million older-model vehicles to the list of those recalled because a defective cruise control switch could cause a fire. Ford says 1.1 million Ford Windstar minivans will be recalled for repairs due to a small risk of fires. The company says another 3.4 million Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles with the same switches also will be recalled even though there have been no reports of fires. Those vehicles mainly are trucks and SUVs. All vehicles covered by the recall are from the 1992 to 2003 model years. This is Ford’s seventh recall due to the Texas Instruments speed control switches. The recalls cover a total of 14.3 million vehicles and combined are the largest in Ford’s history Summary of the Ford Fire Recalls Both the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Ford Motor Co. have issued several recalls of millions of Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles as a result of a defective cruise control switch that can lead to a spontaneous fire, even when the vehicle is turned off, parked and unattended. The most recent of this Ford cruise control recalls occurred on September 9, 2008, when the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration re-recalled millions of Ford, Lincoln and Mercury SUV’s pickup trucks, vans and cars. This advisory was the second recall warning from the safety agency issued in 2008 and is meant to bring in nearly 5 million cars, trucks and SUVs which still have not been brought in for repair since an earlier recall of 12 million vehicles in February 2008.

As part of its mission to reduce fatalities and injuries, since model year 2001 NHTSA has included rollover information as part of its NCAP ratings. One of the primary means of assessing rollover risk is the static stability factor (SSF), a measurement of a vehicle’s resistance to rollover. The higher the SSF, the lower the rollover risk.

    Holiday Letter 2009 1 Ruth Made a Wonderful Christmas Dinner

    ur 2009 holiday letter comes to you from beautiful Dominica, Nature Island of the Caribbean where we live now, spending some time O high-class formal snorkeling. We posted our 2008 letter early, after selling our Westboro MA home of over 30 years just before Thanksgiving. This update begins with our move on November 20, 2008. We had our first Thanksgiving away from home in 30 years, visiting our daughter Mathilda in New York City. Dinner was a great affair; a gathering of several of her friends with us as guests. On the trip we visited my cousin Bruce (retired NYC teacher now an art photographer www.flickr.com/photos/brucelivingston) & his wife Linda at their lovely restored farmhouse in Asbury NJ. (Not Asbury Park, the seashore resort; a little town in NJ’s northwest hills.) Then we swung down to the central seashore to visit my sister Naomi & husband Larry in Neptune City NJ and stayed with best friends Roger & Rita in Toms River NJ. We dropped off our 1997 Mazda Miata (above w/Ruth, in front of our former home) which they bought. Ruth’s official retirement date was December 31, 2008, but she used earned time off to make December 12 her last day at the office. Her friends from her US Army Soldier Systems Center office and from her former US Army Corps of Engineers office threw her a lovely sentimental farewell/retirement party. We departed the US December 13 and after an overnight in Puerto Rico we arrived in Dominica to establish our new home Sunday, December, 14.
