Important Explorer & Mustang possible recalls.Important read!

Just learned that NHTAS is looking into possible recalls about:
1- Explorers: Possible throttle sticking.

2- Mustangs: Possible throttle sticking because of the carpeting holding the throttle open. I (think) it was when wide open the carpet caught the lower part of the gas pedal, but not sure.

Just a heads up until we know more.

I think it was the fairly new models of both. I missed part of it.
