From what I've read this is currently just affecting the American ford market. Still to be confirmed whether UK fords are affected. Looks to be a massive recall with 2 million being recalled in America alone.

The UK usually has to wait for the BBCs 'WatchDog' to get involved before manufactures enact a recall!

The Americans will get new doors, we will get a cable tie to hold them shut.😎

Good job they decided not to let the Americans have the MK4 Focus then otherwise the Legal Bods would have had a field day with all the claims for NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE😀

The Americans had the rough idle recall for the MK3 ST pre face lift and quite a lot of owners I’ve spoken to have the really bad idle issue to the point of stalling.

Spoke to ford UK and apparently it doesn’t affect the European market... what’s all that about? It’s mad. Gave them to recall issue and everything and they just didn’t care even though the symptoms are exactly the same as the American version of the MK3 ST.

Register an account in FordETIS and check possible recalls from there, not Facebook.

A quick search will give you a list of the vehicles  involved and they are all from plants in the USA apart from two

The Mexican built Fiesta and the Spanish built Transits, a look on ford etis will show which plant you car was built in.
