After planning to remove AM radio from new vehicles, Ford now plans to continue offering it, citing the need for emergency alerts.
Despite a previous death sentence, AM radio will live to see another day on all 2024 Ford and Lincoln models. That's according to FoMoCo CEO Jim Farley, who today tweeted the company's decision to not nix AM radio in its new vehicles after all.
The demise of AM radio is something other automakers such as Audi, BMW, Volvo, and Tesla have already started to do, specifically on their electric vehicles. However, this has led to backlash from lawmakers and many others who claim AM radio is vital because it's accessible, free, and important for public safety.
