Ford Galaxy, Kuga and S-Max: Rupture of the oil pan with a risk of fire

Ford-Kuga-rupture-oil-pan-risk-fire

Ford is recalling 336,754 Galaxy, Kuga, S-Max HEV and PHEV vehicles built between 2019 and 2023 to workshops worldwide. The reason for the recall is that if the electric motor is not disconnected from the hybrid drive, the engine oil pan or the engine block may break, allowing engine oil to escape in the event of damage to the combustion engine. There is a risk of fire.

A software update is carried out in the workshop. The KBA is investigating the action under the reference number “013012“, and the manufacturer-internal code is “23S27“.
