## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2020 Ford Explorer vehicles equipped with 2.3L or 3.3L engines.  The wiring harness may not have been properly secured and may contact the air conditioner compressor \(A/C\) pulley, potentially damaging the harness or the A/C belt.


## What can happen

The A/C pulley may rub through the wiring harness insulation and contact the unfused battery positive wire, resulting in a short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire.


## The remedy

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will install a tie strap to the wiring harness at the hand shock tower clip, free of charge.  The recall began October 21, 2019.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 19S32.


## Notes
