Sincerely, Jennifer Timian Chief, Recall Management Division Office of Defects Investigations Enforcement March 27, 2017 Ford Recall 17S09 - Chronology June – August 2016 – Ford’s North American Critical Concern Review Group (CCRG) reviewed data related to underhood fire allegations on 2014 Escape vehicles equipped with 1.6L GTDI engines. The data showed an uptick of reported underhood fires potentially related to engine overheat during the colder months in early 2016. The fires reported were primarily localized and/or potentially self-extinguishing; consistent with the engine control system identifying a potential overheat and taking action to reduce engine temperatures. CCRG requested the gathering of further information, where possible, regarding fire origin and potential cause from complaint vehicles. September 2016 – January 2017 – Based on the investigation and information gathered to date, the team recommended and agreed to monitor reports, investigate claims, and inspect and recover parts during the coming winter season. January 2017 – Ford South Africa announced a recall on 2013 and 2014MY Kuga vehicles equipped with the 1.6L GTDI engine for risk of underhood fire associated with localized overheating and cracking of the cylinder head. This was announced in response to an increasing number of reports on a small volume of vehicles. Ford previously conducted a recall in the United States (13V583) for 2013MY Ford Escape vehicles equipped with 1.6L engines. The 2014 MY 1.6L equipped Escape vehicles in the United States utilized different temperature sensors and control system to reduce the likelihood of an engine overheating and cracking of the cylinder head. February 2017 – Monitoring of reports identified an increase in underhood fire allegations, potentially related to overheat, on 2013-14 Ford Fusion vehicles equipped with 1.6L GTDI engines. CCRG reviewed this new information, in conjuction with reviewing an update on Escape reports, and began to investigate potential cause for Fusion reports, including analyses of vehicles and field returned parts. March 2017 – A Technical Review Group (TRG) meeting was convened to review the new data on Fusion as well as the updated data on Escape. The TRG recommended that this concern be referred to the Field Review Committee (FRC) and that all vehicles in North America equipped with a 1.6L GTDI engine built prior to February 14, 2014, be included in the recommendation, regardless of the presence or lack of field reports. On March 20, 2017, Ford’s FRC reviewed the concern and approved a field action. Mar 29, 2017 | DEARBORN, Mich. Ford Issues Three Safety Recalls and One Safety Compliance Recall in North America DEARBORN, Mich., March 29, 2017 – Ford Motor Company is issuing three safety recalls and one safety compliance recall in North America. Details are as follows: Ford issues safety recall for certain 2013-15 Ford Escape, Ford Fiesta ST, Ford Fusion and Ford Transit Connect 1.6-liter GTDI vehicles for under-hood fire risk Ford is issuing a safety recall in North America for approximately 230,000 2014 Ford Escape, 2014-15 Ford Fiesta ST, 2013-14 Ford Fusion and 2013-15 Ford Transit Connect vehicles equipped with 1.6-liter GTDI engines. Ford’s investigation of these vehicles has identified a risk of under-hood fires. In the affected vehicles, a lack of coolant circulation could cause an engine to overheat, resulting in a crack in the cylinder head. A cracked cylinder head can result in a pressurized oil leak. Oil that comes into contact with a hot engine surface increases the risk of a fire in the engine compartment. Ford is aware of 29 reports of fire associated with this issue in the United States and Canada. No injuries have been reported. Affected vehicles equipped with 1.6-liter GTDI engines include: 2014 Escape – Louisville Assembly Plant, Feb. 12, 2013 to Sept. 2, 2014 2014-15 Fiesta ST – Cuautitlan Assembly Plant, Jan. 22, 2013 to May 27, 2014 2013-14 Fusion – Hermosillo Assembly Plant, Feb. 15, 2012 to June 6, 2014 2013-15 Transit Connect – Valencia Assembly Plant, June 13, 2013 to Dec. 14, 2014 There are approximately 230,756 vehicles equipped with 1.6-liter GTDI engines located in North America, including 208,584 in the United States and federalized territories, 21,854 in Canada and 318 in Mexico. The Ford reference number for this recall is 17S09. Ford will mail customers instructions from the owner’s manual on how to check and refill coolant.

Safety recall for select 2019-20 Ford Transit Connect vehicles equipped with the 2.5-liter engine In affected vehicles, the software calibration for the engine failsafe cooling strategy contains temperature threshold values that are higher than intended. In the event of elevated engine temperatures due to coolant loss, there will be a delay in vehicles invoking the failsafe cooling strategy, resulting in engine temperatures exceeding critical limits. Under severe cases, running the engine at temperatures above critical limits for prolonged periods of time could result in engine damage and increase the risk of fire. Ford is not aware of any reports of accident, injury or fire related to this condition. This action affects 2,903 vehicles in the U.S. and federal territories and 584 in Canada. Affected vehicles were built at Valencia Assembly Plant from Aug. 2, 2018, to July 30, 2020. Dealers will update the powertrain control module. The Ford reference number for this recall is 20S60. Safety recall for select 2020 Ford Escape vehicles In affected vehicles, the tire pressure monitoring system may function in a reduced capacity and may intermittently fail to adequately warn a driver of low air pressure in the rear tires. Driving with low tire pressure could lead to poor vehicle handling and control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Fiesta global development • Single vehicle developed for customers globally • ‘One Ford’ Global Product Development System and cooperation, including Mazda • First Ford car to be developed using this process, with others to follow “The new Ford Fiesta will set the standard for delivering products that our customers really want and value while taking advantage of our wonderful global resources. With momentum in small-car sales outpacing industry growth worldwide, we will build on our European small car strength to deliver a new generation of small cars for a new generation of highly discerning customers.” Alan Mulally, President and CEO, Ford Motor Company From the outset, the new Ford Fiesta has been designed and developed to meet the differing needs of customers around the world, from Western and Eastern Europe to North America, China, Australia and South Africa. At first glance, such a global population may not have much in common, so Ford carried out extensive research on customer needs, wants and desires around the world when planning its new small car – long before the creation of the Verve Concept preview vehicle and the subsequent production version of new Fiesta. The result is not just a new car, but a new process, which dictates the future of Ford product development and through which other Ford cars will be born. New Fiesta is the first product of Ford Motor Company CEO, Alan Mulally’s ‘One Ford’ vision of a single, global company designing and building cars for a single, global customer base, not divided by regional or national borders.
