Ford METHOD urgently recall of its 2013 Escape models

Although the theatrical release of the new 2013 Ford Escape is all recent, the American manufacturer announced already a voluntary recall of its second compact SUV.

This time, it affects approximately 11,500 vehicles sold in the United States and Canada.

The affected models are equipped with four-cylinder engine of 1.6 liters, while vehicle propelled by engines of 2.0 liters and 2.5 liters, are excluded from the recall. We are talking about vehicles assembled at the factory in Louisville until 11 July.

A no longer use

Ford will be very strong, since it recommends that owners of recalled vehicles emergency, not to use their new acquisition and contact their dealer as soon as possible.

From their side, the mechanics will replace the gasoline engine driven, since he who was installed at the factory, is likely to detach and by the very fact, allow escape of gas and cause a fire.

So far, no one has suffered injury because of this problem.

This is the second recall affecting the new 2013 Ford Escape. The first was challenged by the introduction of carpet, which affect the proper use of the brake pedal.
