Details

Issue: On certain vehicles repaired under recall 2018-577 (Ford Recall #18S32), the software for the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) was not properly updated.

As a result, a second repair is required.

The software allows the PCM to detect a Canister Purge Valve (CPV) that is not working properly.

A CPV that is not working properly could cause a malfunction indicator light (MIL) to turn on in the instrument cluster, erratic readings on the fuel gauge, and/or the engine may stall.

Note: Owners are advised to keep their fuel level above half-full until the recall repairs are completed.

Safety Risk: A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to update the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) software.
