What you need to know about the fuel-pump control module recall
The recall announced Wednesday covers certain 2013-15 model year Ford Taurus sedans, Ford Flex crossover utility vehicles, Lincoln MKS sedans, Lincoln MKT SUVs and Ford Police Interceptor sedans.
The faulty fuel-pump control module could cause the engine to stall suddenly and not restart. If this happens while driving, the likelihood of a crash could be increased.
Here’s a breakdown of what’s being recalled, according to Ford:
-
2013-15 Ford Taurus with 3.5-liter gasoline turbocharged direct injection engine built at Chicago Assembly Plant, Aug. 25, 2011 to May 31, 2015
