Details

What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with a 3.2L diesel engine. A fuel injector or the fuel volume control valve may clog due to metallic debris within the fuel system.

Why it matters: If debris clogs the fuel system, the engine may stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel injection pump and associated parts and, if necessary, will replace the fuel filter and flush the fuel system, free of charge. The recall began on October 14, 2016.
