Ford Recalls 44K Broncos on O.J. Simpson Death Anniversary, Reminding of Infamous 1994 Police Chase

Ford recalled over 44,000 Bronco Sport and Escape vehicles on April 12, 2024 due to potentially cracked fuel injectors that could cause fires.

The recall coincided with the day O.J. Simpson passed away at age 76 after battling cancer.

Simpson infamously led police on a low-speed chase in a white Ford Bronco in June 1994 after being charged with murder.

The chase was watched live by over 95 million viewers, interrupting even the NBA Finals telecast.

The text questions whether readers would buy a Ford Bronco given its association with Simpson's case.
