News anchor reporting on Ford Focus recall alert with details on affected vehicles and issues

Ford is recalling more than 250,000 vehicles that were incorrectly repaired under a previous recall meant to fix a problem that caused the engine to stall while driving, according to the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration. The recall includes 255,404 Ford Focus automobiles, model years 2012-2018. Ford said the canister purge valve may stick open, causing the engine to stall unexpectedly while driving, increasing the risk of a crash and injury. “Affected vehicles may illuminate a Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) or customers may observe inaccurate fuel gauge indication, inaccurate distance to empty indication and/or have drivability concerns,” the federal agency said To fix the problem, dealers will provide a powertrain software update free of charge.

Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed between July 6 and July 10. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 or a local Ford or Lincoln dealer to see if their vehicle is impacted. Ford’s number for this recall is 26S40. The federal agency’s number for this recall is 26V369. The original NHTSA recall number for this issue is 18V735. Vehicle identification numbers involved in this recall will become searchable on NHTSA.gov on July 6.

Ford recalls 144,000 F-150s in Canada due to gearshift issue

Ford is issuing a safety recall for some 144,oo0 F-150s in Canada, the company said Friday, due to an issue with the vehicles’ gearshift that can impact the drivers’ control of the vehicle. The safety issue impacts some vehicles with six-speed automatic transmissions made between 2015 and 2017. In the U.S., almost 1.4 million vehicles are affected, including some 2014 model years as well. In some of the trucks, deteriorated electrical connections in the internal transmission lead frame can cause a signal issue from a transmission sensor, according to the company. “This may lead to an unexpected downshift into a lower gear while the vehicle is in motion,” a Ford spokesperson told CBC News in an emailed statement.

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s safety recall report said the issue may cause an abrupt reduction in wheel speed for a short period of time, which in some situations could cause the rear tires to slide until the vehicle speed slows. The automaker is aware of two injuries and one accident possibly related to the issue, according to The Associated Press. Ford says dealers can update the vehicles’ Powertrain Control Module (PCM) software, which should fix the issue. Alternatively, if an affected vehicle previously displayed “specific diagnostic trouble codes” related to that sensor, Ford says it will replace the transmission lead frame for free. F-150 drivers can determine if their vehicle is impacted by entering their Vehicle Identification Number online on Ford’s recall webpage.

Ford recalls 1.4 million F-150 pickup trucks

Ford is recalling almost 1.4 million of its F-150 pickup trucks in the U.S. because of a gearshift issue that may lead to the loss of control of vehicles and increasing the risk of a crash. The automaker is aware of two injuries and one accident possibly related to the issue. Advertisement The recall includes F-150 light trucks with a six-speed automatic transmission that were produced between March 12, 2014 an Aug. 18, 2017. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s safety recall report says that some of the pickup trucks may experience an intermittent selection signal of the transmission range sensor to the powertrain control module, which may lead to a temporary, unintended downshift into second gear.

This may cause an abrupt reduction in wheel speed for a short period of time, which in some situations could cause the rear tires to slide until the vehicle speed slows. Ford is aware of 444 warranty claims and 105 customer service reports that could be linked to the issue as of early this month. Vehicle owners will be notified about the recall by mail and instructed to bring their vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to have their powertrain control module calibration updated at no cost.
