News of the fire first arrived on Wednesday by way of the Detroit Free Press, after reports earlier in the week detailed delays in production for the F-150 Lightning. This is just the latest quality-related issue for Ford in recent months. The brand's other popular EV, the Mustang Mach-E, saw 50,000 units recalled last year for an issue that could cause a total loss of power. Ford was also the most-recalled brand in 2022. Earlier this month, CEO Jim Farley blamed the automaker's $2 billion net loss in 2022 on execution and quality issues such as these.
