Manufacturer Recall Number:
22S43
Units Affected:
394,162
Notification Type:
Safety Mfr
Issue: On certain vehicles, the shift cable may detach from the transmission. This could cause the transmission not to shift gears when the shifter is moved. As a result, the transmission could be in a different gear than the gear shifter indicates. If a driver attempts to exit the vehicle while the transmission is not in Park, and the parking brake is not applied, the vehicle could move suddenly. Safety Risk: Sudden and unexpected movement of the vehicle could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the transmission shifter cable bushing and install a protective service cap. Ford advises that you should apply the parking brake each time the vehicle is parked.

Manufacturer Recall Number:

Units Affected:
43
Notification Type:
Compliance Mfr
Certain vehicles may fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) 226 - Ejection Mitigation. A tear in the fabric of the side curtain airbag may occur during deployment, which could cause the duration of the side curtain airbag’s inflation to be shorter than intended. This would result in the air bag not meeting the requirements of the standard and, in the event of a crash warranting deployment of the side curtain airbag, the risk of injury would be increased. Correction: Dealers will replace the driver and passenger aside curtain airbags.

On certain vehicles equipped with 1.6L GTDI engines, low coolant level could lead to localized overheating of the cylinder head, which could cause a fire. This could increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install a coolant level sensor and supporting hardware and software. Note: Until repair parts are available, owners should regularly check engine coolant level and top up as necessary. Also note for Fiesta, only the ST model vehicles are affected.

Notification Type:
Compliance Mfr
Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 126 - Electronic Stability Control Systems. Certain brake Hydraulic Control Units (HCU) may contain metallic debris, which could reduce pump performance and affect Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and may cause the system fail to meet the requirements of the standard. If metallic debris is present, particles may block a pressure valve in the HCU during operation. This could result in a driver experiencing degraded performance of the ESC and related brake systems without warning, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will remove and replace the brake HCU.

On certain vehicles, the wiper arm pivot pins could become loose, causing noisy wiper operation and inconsistent clearing of the windshield. Continued usage could cause the driver and/or passenger side wiper arm to separate, resulting in a loss of wiper function on that side. Loss of windshield wiping function, should it occur during a rainy/snowy day, may compromise the driver's ability to see the road and its users, which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the wiper arm assemblies.

*** This action is a Customer Satisfaction Campaign and is not being conducted under the requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act.*** On certain vehicles, the headliner pushpin at the B-pillar may not absorb sufficient energy to conform to the U.S specific regulatory requirement for unbelted occupant protection in an interior impact. In the event of a crash, the headliner pushpin in this location may not provide the interior impact protection intended, increasing the risk of injury. Although Canadian vehicles comply with all Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, Ford Motor Company of Canada is voluntarily conducting this customer satisfaction program to reassure Transit Connect owners.
