Issue
Issue:
On certain vehicles, the connecting rod bearings may wear and cause the engine to fail.
Note: This recall only affects certain police vehicles equipped with a 3.3L gas or hybrid engine.
Safety Risk:
An engine failure could cause a sudden loss of power to the wheels and/or increase the risk of a vehicle fire. Both issues could increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Corrective Actions:
Ford will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development. 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 notice reduced engine power.
