Ford Motor Company (F) issued a recall for nearly 205,000 cars today, around a month after the automaker recalled another 850,000 vehicles in a separate action.

Today’s recall covers 2007-2008 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX vehicles. The cars could have corrosion on the reinforcement brackets where the gas tank connects to the car that could result in a fuel leak and fire.

As of yet, there’s only been one fire reported from this problem, and there have been no accidents or injuries. The recall only covers cars registered or sold in certain states and Canadian provinces; for a list, check Ford’s press release here.

Last month’s recall covered Ford Escape SUVs with potential problems in the air bags and seat belts.
