Calling all Interceptors.
Ford is recalling its specially-designed police sedans called Interceptors. The recall stems from a problem with a spring in the interior door handle, which Ford said could cause the door to unlatch during a side-impact crash.
Ford said Wednesday it is recalling a total of 205,000 cars — which includes the Taurus and the Lincoln MKS sedan, along with the police Interceptor.
The automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this issue.
Ford dealers will inspect the door handles and replace them if necessary, at no cost to the owner.
The recall covers Interceptors built between 2009 and 20012; Ford Taurus vehicles built between 2009 and 2012 and Lincoln MKS sedans built in 2011. All the recalled cars were assembled at a plant in Chicago.
