Ford is recalling over 255,404 vehicles in the U.S., specifically Focus models from 2012-2018, due to a malfunctioning canister purge valve that can cause engines to stall unexpectedly while driving. The NHTSA confirmed the safety risk associated with this mechanical issue. Separately, Canada's Unifor union has entered negotiations with Ford to seek better pay and job security for approximately 19,000 workers.
