FORD Focus Estate with 1.6 Ltr Diesel Engine Recall
Electronic cooling fan control module may overheat
FORD announced a problem with the Focus Estate with 1.6 Ltr Diesel Engine affecting a total of 8,506 vehicles.
In markets where salt is used on roads in winter, corrosion may form and propagate into the electronic fan control module and in extreme cases may cause the module to overheat. In rare cases the overheating may be sufficient to ignite the module, surrounding wiring and components. Vehicles built from 7/16/2004 to 12/1/2006 are at risk.
The following remedial action is necessary to address this problem. Recall affected vehicles and replace the cooling fan and motor assembly.
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should
