Ford Motor Co. is recalling about 227,000 vehicles in the United States over multiple safety defects — its latest such action in a record-shattering year that has seen the automaker issue more than 120 recalls .

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said the new recall covers 163,256 Bronco Sport SUVs for front seats that may have loose bolts, 56,841 Lincoln and Explorer models for windshields with visible air bubbles, and 6,909 Econoline vans with inoperative defrosting or defogging systems.

Dealers will replace or repair the affected parts at no cost to owners, according to NHTSA.

The announcement came just a day after Ford recalled nearly 175,000 vehicles for moonroof wind deflectors that could detach while driving, creating a road hazard.
