The official notice
Defect
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Transit Connect vehicles equipped with 2.5L engines.

This may delay the fail-safe cooling strategy in the event of coolant loss and result in engine overheating.
Safety Risk
If the engine overheats, it can result in engine damage and increase the risk of a fire.
Remedy
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will update the PCM software, free of charge. The recall began November 10, 2020. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 20S60.
