## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain model year 2015 Ford Transit vehicles manufactured July 28, 2014, to August 7, 2014.  In the affected vehicles the fuel filter bracket mounting may detach from the frame cross member over time.


## What can happen

A separation of the fuel filter from the cross member will disrupt distribution of fuel to the engine, thereby inducing an engine stall.  An unexpected engine stall while driving increases the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will install a reinforcement plate, free of charge.  The recall began on December 19, 2014.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 14S23.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
