Ford recalls nearly 32,000 vehicles for air bag defect

Ford Motor Co is recalling 31,867 vehicles in the US and Canada because their driver’s side air bags may not inflate properly.

The recall affects the 2016-2017 Ford Edge, the 2016-2017 Lincoln MKX and the 2017 Lincoln Continental. Most are in the US but 4,336 are in Canada, Boston.com reports.

The air bags were made by Japanese supplier Takata Corp, but they don’t have the same deadly problem that has led to a recall of millions of Takata air bags.

In that case, air bags can inflate with too much force and spew shrapnel at occupants.
