What Happened
The clutch in your vehicle is a critical part that helps connect and disconnect the engine from the transmission when you shift gears. In certain Ford models, this clutch can break, causing damage to the transmission.
Risk if Unfixed
If the clutch fails, it could leak transmission fluid, which, near a hot engine or exhaust component, could catch fire, posing a serious risk.
Free Fix
Your Ford dealer will check your clutch and either update the software to prevent a prolonged slip or replace the clutch assembly completely – both at no cost to you. You should contact Ford or schedule an appointment when you receive the recall notice.
