AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Ford is recalling more than 179,000 2024‑2026 model‑year vehicles because the front seat height‑adjust pivot‑link bolts may loosen or become dislodged, posing an increased risk of injury in a crash. The recall covers 117,443 Ford Bronco SUVs and 62,255 Ford Ranger pickup trucks. Owners will receive mailed notices between May 11 and May 15 instructing them to have the bolts inspected at a Ford or Lincoln dealer, with any defective bolts replaced at no cost; confirmation letters are expected between July 13 and July 17. The recall follows a separate recall last month of nearly 1.4 million F‑150 pickups for a gear‑shift issue that also raised crash‑risk concerns.

Feed: All Latest | Emergency First Responders Say Waymos Are Getting Worse by Aarian Marshall

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Emergency‑first‑responder leaders from San Francisco and Austin told federal regulators that Waymo’s driverless cars are increasingly hindering their work, frequently freezing, blocking fire stations and ambulances, and failing to recognize hand signals, which creates dangerous delays during emergencies. Officials described a “backsliding” in performance, citing incidents such as a Waymo vehicle immobilizing an ambulance during a downtown shooting and dozens of cars being stranded during a power outage, and criticized the rapid, large‑scale deployment of the technology before it was ready. Waymo has acknowledged the concerns, pointing to extensive training for more than 35,000 responders and stating it is improving its service, while new California regulations slated for July will require autonomous‑vehicle firms to respond to first‑responder calls within 30 seconds and allow “do‑not‑enter” directives to clear driverless cars from emergency zones. Despite the frustrations, responders expressed a desire to continue working with Waymo and other AV companies as the technology matures.
