2014 Ford Escape & 2014 Ford Focus + 1 more recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong

In the affected vehicles, the Fuel Delivery Module (FDM) may crack between the filter body and the filter cap, possibly resulting in low fuel pressure.
💥 The risk
A reduction in fuel pressure may result in a vehicle stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
