Ford is recalling 2020 Escape vehicles with a faulty Body Control Module that may not warn drivers of low tire pressure. This could lead to poor vehicle handling and a crash risk if the tire pressure drops too low.
The Body Control Module (BCM) sometimes fails to detect low tire pressure from TPMS sensors or key fobs. Without proper warnings, drivers might not know when tire pressure is too low, leading to loss of vehicle control.
