- Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\)
- Campaign number: 2019432

- Reported: 2019\-08\-27
- Component: Electrical
- Notification type: Safety TC
- Units potentially affected: 13564

## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain cars, water and road debris can enter the battery junction box. This could result in corrosion of some electrical components. If this happens, the low beam headlights and daytime running lights could turn off while driving. This recall applies to cars originally sold or currently registered in areas of heavy road salt usage \(Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland \& Labrador\).

Safety Risk:

A loss of low beam headlights and/or daytime running lights would reduce visibility. This could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:

Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their car to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to service the battery junction box. The dealer will clean the battery junction box, install foam sealing to the cover, and replace any corroded fuses, terminals or relays.
