## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain model year 2014 Ford Focus vehicles manufactured May 1, 2014, to May 24, 2014, 2014 Ford Escape vehicles manufactured on June 6, 2014, and 2015 Lincoln MKC vehicles manufactured June 4, 2014, to July 7, 2014.  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.


## What can happen

A reduction in fuel pressure may result in a vehicle stall, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the FDM, free of charge.  The recall began in September 2014.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 14S20.
