Issue

Issue:
On certain hybrid models, an engine failure can cause a significant buildup of engine oil and/or fuel vapour under the hood. In some cases, this could cause a fire.
Note: This recall only affects certain vehicles equipped with a 2.5 L HEV or PHEV engine.

Safety Risk:
A buildup of engine oil and/or fuel vapour after an engine failure could cause a fire.

Corrective Actions:
Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to modify the under-engine shield and active grille shutter. To reduce the safety risk, Ford recommends that you should shut off the engine as soon as possible if you hear unusual engine noises, see smoke from the engine compartment, or believe the engine has failed.
