Ford has a little Valentine's gift for 365,000 owners of its F-150 pickups -- a recall.
It's a recall that involves a lot of pickups, but it sounds like a fairly minor problem. The recall is intended to fix inside door handles. The fear is the doors could fly open in a crash, the Associated Press reports. The recall covers the 2009 and 2010 model years.
The recall is expected to start on about Feb. 14, Valentine's Day.
About 68,000 of the popular trucks under recall are in Canada and about 14,000 are in Mexico. Ford says there have been no crashes or injuries tied to the problem.
The F-150 is the nation's best selling vehicle.
