Trucks

 CNN - Ford is recalling more than 550,000 F-150 pickup trucks because of an issue that can cause the transmission to suddenly shift down to first gear. Usually, first gear is used to drive a vehicle at very low speeds, so suddenly shifting to first gear at high speed could cause the truck to slow rapidly or even cause the driver to lose control. The trucks involved are from the 2014 model year. Separately, Tesla is recalling the Cybertruck again due to a piece of plastic trim that may fly off from the vehicle while it's being driven. Thousands of Cybertrucks are also being recalled for a separate issue in the electric motor that powers its single huge windshield wiper. The issue may allow excessive electrical current to run through the motor, causing it to fail.
