REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL

In some of the affected vehicles, the PCM software may not adequately detect a stuck-open canister purge valve (CPV) within the fuel vapor system. If the CPV malfunctions and sticks open, it can lead to excessive vacuum in the fuel vapor system, allowing the plastic fuel tank to deform. This can cause the following symptoms:

Illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0420, P1450, P0443, P0452, P0456, P0460 and/or P2196.

Inaccurate or erratic fuel gauge indication.

Inaccurate distance to empty (DTE).

Engine stall and/or other drivability concerns related to stuck open CPV.

SERVICE ACTION

Before demonstrating or delivering any new in-stock vehicles involved in this recall, dealers will reprogram the PCM using IDS release 113.05 or higher, check for DTCs or other evidence of a leaking CPV, and perform any additional required repairs as directed in Attachment III. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.

Ford Performance Calibrations

Some unique steps may be required when programming Focus ST vehicles as outlined in Attachment III. In addition, customers should be instructed to contact Ford Performance to obtain an updated Ford Performance calibration for their vehicle after 18S32 has been completed.

NOTE: Claiming 18S32ZZ for 0.2 Hours when fuel tank clearly does not need replacement may result in a chargeback.

Important Information for Module Programming

NOTE: When programming or reprogramming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes without errors.

Make sure the 12V battery is fully charged before carrying out the programming steps and connect IDS/scan tool to a power source.

Inspect Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) and cables for any damage. Make sure scan tool connections are not interrupted during programming.

A hardwired connection is strongly recommended.

Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC system, etc.) and close doors.

Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio, etc.).

Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully.

Disable IDS/scan tool sleep mode, screen saver, hibernation modes.

Create all sessions key on engine off (KOEO). Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause errors within the programming inhale process.

Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module:

NEVER DELETE THE ORIGINAL SESSION!

a. Obtain the original IDS that was used when the programming error occurred during module reprogramming (MR) or programmable module installation (PMI).

b. Disconnect the VCM from the data link connector (DLC) and the IDS.

c. Reconnect the VCM to IDS and then connect to the DLC. Once reconnected, the VCM icon should appear in the corner of the IDS screen. If it does not, troubleshoot the IDS to VCM connection.

d. Locate the original vehicle session when programming failed. This should be the last session used in most cases. If not, use the session created on the date that the programming failed.

NOTE: If the original session is not listed in the previous session list, click the Recycle Bin icon at the lower right of the previous session screen. This loads any deleted sessions and allows you to look through them. Double-click the session to restore it.

e. Once the session is loaded, the failed process should resume automatically.

f. If programming does not resume automatically, proceed to the Module Programming menu and select the previously attempted process, PMI or MR.

g. Follow all on-screen prompts/instructions.

h. The last screen on the IDS may list additional steps required to complete the programming process. Make sure all applicable steps listed on the screen are followed in order.

Ford Motor Company Issues Recall in North America for Select 2012-18 Ford Focus Vehicles for Malfunctioning Canister Purge Valve

DEARBORN, Mich., Oct. 25, 2018 – Ford is issuing a recall for approximately 1.5 million select 2012-18 Ford Focus vehicles equipped with 2.0-liter GDI and 2.0-liter GTDI engines for a malfunctioning canister purge valve.

Affected vehicles are equipped with a canister purge valve that may become stuck in an open position. If this occurs, an excessive vacuum in the fuel system could cause deformation of the vehicle’s plastic fuel tank. As a result, the customer could observe a malfunction indicator light or a fuel gauge with fluctuating or inaccurate fuel levels. This could lead to a stall while driving and/or an inability to restart the vehicle, which can increase the risk of a crash.

Ford is not aware of any accidents, injuries or fires as a result of this condition.

Affected vehicles include 2012-18 Ford Focus 2.0-liter GDI vehicles built at Michigan Assembly Plant prior to April 13, 2017 and 2.0-liter GTDI vehicles built prior to Feb. 2, 2018.

There are approximately 1,463,389 vehicles in North America relating to this concern, with 1,282,596 in the United States and federalized territories, 136,272 in Canada and 44,521 in Mexico. The Ford reference number for this recall is 18S32.

Dealers will reprogram the powertrain control module with new software that will detect a malfunctioning canister purge valve and prevent a potential excessive fuel vapor system vacuum condition from occurring. Dealers will inspect and replace the canister purge valve, carbon canister, fuel tank and fuel delivery module, as necessary. There will be no charge for these services. Customers should maintain at least a half tank of fuel until the recall is completed.

December 2018 Ford Motor Company Ford Customer Service Division P. O. Box 1904 Dearborn, Michigan 48121 1904 * * * IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL * * * Safety Recall Notice 18S32 / NHTSA Recall 18V-735 2016 Focus Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Ford Motor Company has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in your vehicle, with the VIN shown above. We apologize for this situation and want to assure you that, with your assistance, we will correct this condition. Our commitment, together with your dealer, is to provide you with the highest level of service and support. What is the issue? Service Engine Soon Indicator On your vehicle, the engine may stall due to a stuck canister purge valve (CPV) within the fuel vapor system. A stuck CPV can lead to excessive vacuum in the fuel vapor system, causing the plastic fuel tank to deform, resulting in an inaccurate or erratic fuel gauge indication, inaccurate distance to empty (DTE), and/or other drivability concerns. The vehicle may also exhibit an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). What is the risk? This may result in an engine stall while driving without warning or without the ability to restart, and can increase the risk of a crash. What will Ford and your dealer do? Ford Motor Company is working closely with its suppliers to produce parts for this repair. When parts become available, Ford Motor Company will notify you via mail to schedule a service appointment with your dealer for repairs to be completed free of charge (parts and labor). Parts are anticipated to be available by 1st Quarter, 2019. What should you do? When parts are available, Ford Motor Company will send a letter to inform you that parts are available and to contact your dealer to schedule a repair. Customers are advised to maintain at least 1/2 tank of fuel until their vehicle has this safety recall completed. Ford has not issued instructions to stop driving your vehicle under this safety recall. When parts are available, owners should contact their dealer for an appointment to have their vehicle remedied as soon as practicable. Owners can continue to safely drive their vehicle if they follow all instructions and warnings contained in the recall notice. If you do not already have a servicing dealer, you can access www.Fordowner.com for dealer addresses, maps, and driving instructions. Please note: Federal law requires that any vehicle lessor receiving this recall notice must forward a copy of this notice to the lessee within ten days.

Lamentamos esta situación y deseamos asegurarle que, con su ayuda, corregiremos el problema. Nuestro compromiso, junto con el de su distribuidor, es ofrecerle servicio y apoyo de alto nivel. ¿Cuál es el problema? Indicador de servicio al motor a la brevedad En su vehículo, el motor se podría parar debido a un atoramiento de la válvula de purga del canister (CPV) dentro del sistema de vapor de combustible. Una CPV atorada podría ocasionar un exceso de vacío en el sistema de vapor de combustible, pudiendo deformar el tanque de combustible de plástico, lo cual se traduce en una indicación imprecisa o errónea del indicador de combustible, una autonomía imprecisa u otros problemas de manejo. También se podría encender la luz indicadora de mal funcionamiento (MIL) del vehículo. ¿Qué riesgo existe? Todo esto podría generar el paro del motor mientras maneja sin advertencia o sin la posibilidad de volver a arrancar, lo cual aumenta el riesgo de sufrir un accidente. ¿Qué medidas adoptarán Ford y su distribuidor? Ford Motor Company colabora estrechamente con sus proveedores para fabricar las piezas para esta reparación. Cuando estas estén disponibles, Ford Motor Company le avisará mediante correo para programar una cita de servicio con su distribuidor y así realizar las reparaciones sin costo alguno (piezas y mano de obra). Se prevé que las piezas estarán disponibles el primer trimestre de 2019. ¿Qué debe hacer? Cuando las piezas estén disponibles, Ford Motor Company le enviará una carta para informarle la disponibilidad de estas y solicitarle que se comunique con su distribuidor a fin de programar la reparación. Se aconseja a los clientes que mantengan el tanque de combustible al menos en 1/2 mientras no realicen esta campaña de seguridad. Para esta campaña de seguridad, Ford no ha emitido instrucciones de no manejar el vehículo. Cuando las piezas se encuentren disponibles, los propietarios deben ponerse en contacto con su distribuidor a fin de programar una cita para solucionar este problema lo más pronto posible.

This can cause the following symptoms: l Illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with certain diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) l Inaccurate or erratic fuel gauge indication l Inaccurate distance to empty (DTE) l Engine stall and/or other drivability concerns related to stuck open CPV What is the risk? This may result in an engine stall while driving without warning or without the ability to restart, and can increase the risk of a crash. What will Ford and your dealer do? Parts and software are now available to repair your vehicle. Ford Motor Company has authorized your dealer to update your vehicle’s PCM software, check for DTCs or other evidence of a leaking CPV, and perform any additional required repairs as required, free of charge (parts and labor).

REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL In some of the affected vehicles, the PCM software may not adequately detect a stuck-open canister purge valve (CPV) within the fuel vapor system. If the CPV malfunctions and sticks open, it can lead to excessive vacuum in the fuel vapor system, allowing the plastic fuel tank to deform. This can cause the following symptoms: • Illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0420, P1450, P0443, P0452, P0456, P0460 and/or P2196. • Inaccurate or erratic fuel gauge indication. • Inaccurate distance to empty (DTE). • Engine stall and/or other drivability concerns related to stuck open CPV.

This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner. Ford Performance Calibrations Some unique steps may be required when programming Focus ST vehicles as outlined in Attachment III. In addition, customers should be instructed to contact Ford Performance to obtain an updated Ford Performance calibration for their vehicle after 18S32 has been completed.

OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE Parts to repair this condition are currently not available in sufficient quantities to service all of the affected vehicles. Therefore, to ensure an ample supply of parts is available (if required), owners of affected vehicles will be notified in seven separate mailings, sorted by model year. Mailing will begin by August 1, 2019. Dealers should repair any affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter. Customers are advised to maintain at least 1/2 tank of fuel until their vehicle has this safety recall completed. PLEASE NOTE: Federal law requires dealers to complete this recall service before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a dealer could result in a civil penalty of up to $21,000 per vehicle. Correct all vehicles in your new vehicle inventory before delivery. New!

ATTACHMENT III PAGE 1 OF 6 SAFETY RECALL 18S32-S3 CPR © 2019 FORD MOTOR COMPANY DEARBORN, MICHIGAN 48121 07/2019 CERTAIN 2012-2018 MODEL YEAR FOCUS VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 2.0L GDI AND GTDI ENGINES – PCM REPROGRAMMING FOR FUEL TANK DEFORMATION OVERVIEW In some of the affected vehicles, the PCM software may not adequately detect a stuck-open canister purge valve (CPV) within the fuel vapor system. If the CPV malfunctions and sticks open, it can lead to excessive vacuum in the fuel vapor system, allowing the plastic fuel tank to deform. This can cause the following symptoms: • Illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0420, P1450, P0443, P0452, P0456, P0460 and/or P2196. • Inaccurate or erratic fuel gauge indication. • Inaccurate distance to empty (DTE). • Engine stall and/or other drivability concerns related to stuck open CPV. Dealers will reprogram the PCM using IDS release 113.05 or higher, check for DTCs or other evidence of a leaking CPV, and perform any additional required repairs as directed in Attachment III.

Make sure scan tool connections are not interrupted during programming. • A hardwired connection is strongly recommended. • Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC system, etc.) and close doors. • Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio, etc.). • Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully. • Disable IDS/scan tool sleep mode, screen saver, hibernation modes. • Create all sessions key on engine off (KOEO). Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause errors within the programming inhale process. Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module: NEVER DELETE THE ORIGINAL SESSION! a. Obtain the original IDS that was used when the programming error occurred during module reprogramming (MR) or programmable module installation (PMI). b. Disconnect the VCM from the data link connector (DLC) and the IDS. c. Reconnect the VCM to IDS and then connect to the DLC. Once reconnected, the VCM icon should appear in the corner of the IDS screen. If it does not, troubleshoot the IDS to VCM connection. d. Locate the original vehicle session when programming failed. This should be the last session used in most cases. If not, use the session created on the date that the programming failed. NOTE: If the original session is not listed in the previous session list, click the Recycle Bin icon at the lower right of the previous session screen. This loads any deleted sessions and allows you to look through them. Double-click the session to restore it. e. Once the session is loaded, the failed process should resume automatically. f. If programming does not resume automatically, proceed to the Module Programming menu and select the previously attempted process, PMI or MR. g. Follow all on-screen prompts/instructions. h. The last screen on the IDS may list additional steps required to complete the programming process. Make sure all applicable steps listed on the screen are followed in order. Version 02-27-09 Ford Motor Company Recall Reimbursement Plan for 18S32 – S#3 Ford and Lincoln dealers are in the best position to quickly and efficiently process reimbursement requests. However, federal legislation requires all motor vehicle manufacturers to establish processes through which customers may seek recall reimbursement directly from the manufacturer or from the dealers. Regarding the specific reimbursement plan for Recall # 18S32, owners who have paid for service to remedy the defect or noncompliance must have had that service performed prior to December 31, 2019. After this date, if repairs related to this recall are performed by a non-Ford repair facility in an emergency situation, customers must submit any refund requests through their dealership. As required by this federal regulation, Ford Motor Company submitted the details of its latest General Recall Reimbursement Plan in a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in February 2015. The following is the text of that letter and the Plan: General Recall Reimbursement Plan (As submitted to the NHTSA) Pursuant to the requirements set forth in 49 CFR Part 573 and Part 577 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Ford Motor Company (Ford) is submitting required information pertaining to our general reimbursement plan for the cost of remedies paid for by vehicle owners before they are notified of a related safety recall. Set forth below is Ford’s general plan to reimburse owners and purchasers for costs incurred for remedies in advance of notification of potential safely-related defects or noncompliances pursuant to Part 573.6 (c)(8)(i). This plan has not changed since our February 20, 2015 submission. Reimbursement Notification Ford’s notice to a vehicle owner in accordance with 49 CFR Part 577 will indicate that Ford is offering a refund if the owner paid to have service to remedy the defect or noncompliance prior to a specified ending date. In accordance with Part 573.13 (c)(2), this ending date will be defined as a minimum of ten calendar days after the date on which Ford mailed the last of its Part 577 notifications to owners, and will be indicated in the specific reimbursement plan available to owners for an individual recall. This notice will direct owners to seek eligible reimbursement through authorized dealers or, at their option, directly through Ford at the following address: Ford Motor Company P.O. Box 6251 Dearborn, MI 48121-6251 Ford notes that this rule allows for the identification of a beginning date for reimbursement eligibility. Under the rule, an owner who paid to remedy the defect or noncompliance prior to the identified beginning date would not be eligible for reimbursement. Ford generally has not established such a beginning date for reimbursement eligibility and does not presently anticipate changing this general policy. However, in any case where Ford determines a beginning date is appropriate, Ford will indicate that date in the owner notice. As permitted by 577.11(e), Ford may not include a reimbursement notification when all vehicles are well within the warranty period, subject to approval by the agency. Version 02-20-15 Costs to be Reimbursed For vehicles, reimbursement will not be less than the lesser of: • The amount paid by the owner for the remedy that specifically addressed and was reasonably necessary to correct the defect or noncompliance that is the subject of the recall, or • The cost of parts for the remedy (to be no more than the manufacturer’s list retail price for authorized part(s), plus associated labor at local labor rates, miscellaneous fees (such as disposal of waste) and taxes. For replacement equipment, reimbursement will be the amount paid by the owner for the replacement item (limited by the amount of the retail list price of the defective or noncompliant item that was replaced, plus taxes, where the brand or model purchased by the owner was different than the brand or model that was the subject of the recall). If the item of motor vehicle equipment was repaired, the reimbursement provisions identified above for vehicles will apply. Ford notes that costs incurred by the owner within the period during which Ford’s original or extended warranty would have provided for a free repair of the problem will not be eligible for reimbursement, as provided by Part 573.13 (d)(1). Entities Authorized to Provide Reimbursement Ford will continue to use authorized dealers to reimburse owners under the specific reimbursement plans for a particular recall, and will encourage owners to pursue requests for reimbursement directly through dealers to expedite reimbursement. Ford will also provide a mailing address to which customers can, at their option, send requests for reimbursement directly to Ford, as previously noted. Requests for reimbursement sent directly to Ford may take up to 60 days to process. Whether the owner chooses to pursue reimbursement requests through a dealer or directly through Ford, the owner will be directed to submit the required documentation, upon which reimbursement eligibility will be determined. Required Documentation The reimbursement determination will depend upon the information provided by the customer. Consistent with Part 573.13 (d)(4) the following information must be submitted: • Claimant name and address • Vehicle make, model, and model year • Vehicle identification number (VIN) and, for replacement equipment, a description of such equipment or, for tires, the model, size and TIN (DOT code) • Identification of the recall number (either the Ford recall number or the NHTSA recall number) • Identification of the owner of the recalled vehicle at the time that the pre-notification remedy was obtained • An original receipt for the pre-notification remedy that includes a breakdown of the amount for parts, labor, other costs and taxes, including costs for the replacement item. Where the receipt covers work other than to address the recall or noncompliance, Ford may require the claimant to separately identify costs that are eligible for reimbursement. • If the remedy was obtained during the warranty period, documentation indicating that the warranty was not honored or the warranty repair did not correct the problem related to the recall. Failure to submit all of the above information may result in denial of the reimbursement request. Version 02-20-15 Additional Information The Part 577 required owner notice will provide a toll-free telephone number through which specific information about the reimbursement plan can be requested from Ford. This general reimbursement plan will be incorporated into notifications pursuant to Part 573.6 by reference. Information specific to an individual recall also may be incorporated into the Part 573.6 notification.
