Box 1904 Dearborn, Michigan 48121 September 9, 2016 TO: All U.S. Ford and Lincoln Dealers SUBJECT: DEMONSTRATION / DELIVERY HOLD - Customer Satisfaction Program 16B35 Supplement #1 Certain 2016-2017 Model Year C-MAX and Fusion Energi Vehicles Reprogram Powertrain Control Module New! REASON FOR THIS SUPPLEMENT Technical Instructions: The Technical Instructions have been updated to reduce the risk of module failure during module reprogramming. PROGRAM TERMS This program will be in effect through August 31, 2017. There is no mileage limit for this program. AFFECTED VEHICLES Vehicle Model Year Assembly Plant Build Dates C-MAX 2016 Michigan April 18, 2016 through July 18, 2016 Fusion Energi 2016-2017 Hermosillo March 11, 2016 through July 6, 2016 Affected vehicles are identified in OASIS and FSA VIN Lists. REASON FOR THIS PROGRAM In some of the affected vehicles, it may be possible for contactors in the high voltage battery junction box to become temporarily fused closed at ignition off, setting diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0AA4. When the next engine start is attempted, the engine will fail to start and will generate a stop safely now message along with a service engine soon indicator illuminated in the instrument cluster. SERVICE ACTION Before demonstrating or delivering any of the new in-stock vehicles involved in this program, dealers are to reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) using the Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) software 101.02 or higher. The secondary onboard diagnostic module C (SOBDMC) will automatically update if it is not at the latest calibration level. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner. OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of September 19, 2016. Dealers should repair any affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter. New!

FSA VIN LISTS ACTIVATION FSA VIN Lists will be available through https://web.fsavinlists.dealerconnection.com on August 30, 2016. Owner names and addresses will be available by September 30, 2016. NOTE: Your FSA VIN Lists may contain owner names and addresses obtained from motor vehicle registration records. The use of such motor vehicle registration data for any purpose other than in connection with this program is a violation of law in several states, provinces, and countries. Accordingly, you must limit the use of this listing to the follow-up necessary to complete this service action. STOCK VEHICLES Correct all affected units in your new vehicle inventory before delivery. Use OASIS to identify any affected vehicles in your used vehicle inventory. SOLD VEHICLES Owners of affected vehicles will be directed to dealers for repairs. Immediately contact any of your affected customers whose vehicles are not on your VIN list but are identified in OASIS. Give the customer a copy of the Owner Notification Letter (when available) and schedule a service date. Correct other affected vehicles identified in OASIS which are brought to your dealership. TITLE BRANDED / SALVAGED VEHICLES Affected title branded and salvaged vehicles are eligible for this service action. ADDITIONAL REPAIR (LABOR TIME AND/OR PARTS) Additional repairs identified as necessary to complete the FSA should be managed as follows: For vehicles within new vehicle bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage, follow existing warranty and policy guidelines for related damage claims. No SSSC approval is required for these vehicles: o Ford vehicles – 3 years or 36,000 miles For vehicles outside new vehicle bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage, submit an Approval Request to the SSSC Web Contact Site prior to completing the repair. OWNER REFUNDS Refunds are not approved for this program. RENTAL VEHICLES The use of rental vehicles is not approved for this program.

When the next engine start is attempted, the engine will fail to start and will generate a stop safely now message along with a service engine soon indicator illuminated in the instrument cluster. Dealers are to reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) using the Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) software 101.02 or higher. The secondary onboard diagnostic module C (SOBDMC) will automatically update if it is not at the latest calibration level. SERVICE PROCEDURE Module Reprogramming NOTE: Reprogram appropriate vehicle modules before performing diagnostics and clear all DTCs after programming. For DTCs generated after reprogramming, follow normal diagnostic service procedures. NOTICE: Attempting to reprogram when the high voltage battery charge is less than 50% may result in module failure during reprogramming. 1. Connect the 110V or 220V vehicle charger and ensure that the high voltage battery is at least 50% charged before attempting to reprogram. 2. Reprogram the PCM using IDS release 101.02 or higher. NOTE: Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraftservice.com. NOTE: A coordinated reflash is required when reprogramming the PCM. When PCM reprogramming is initiated, the IDS will check for software updates on certain onboard modules (anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, secondary onboard diagnostic module C (SOBDMC), etc.). The IDS will automatically install updates in these modules if they are not at the latest level. If the coordinated reflash is interrupted, undesired vehicle operation may result. NOTE: Follow the IDS on-screen instructions to complete the reprogramming procedure. 3. Disconnect the battery charger from the vehicle once the reprogramming has completed. CPR © 2016 FORD MOTOR COMPANY DEARBORN, MICHIGAN 48121 9/2016 ATTACHMENT III PAGE 2 OF 2 CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 16B35-S1 Important Information for Module Programming NOTE: When programming or reprogramming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes without errors. • Make sure the high voltage battery is at least 50% charged before carrying out the programming steps and connect IDS/scan tool to a power source. • Inspect Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) and cables for any damage. Make sure scan tool connections are not interrupted during programming. • A hardwired connection is strongly recommended. • Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC system, etc.) and close doors. • Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio, etc.). • Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully. • Disable IDS/scan tool sleep mode, screensaver, hibernation modes. • Create all sessions key on engine off (KOEO). Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause errors within the programming inhale process. NOTE: If a module becomes unresponsive or does not operate properly following a module programming procedure, attempt a battery disconnect and reconnect. Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module: NEVER DELETE THE ORIGINAL SESSION! a. Obtain the original IDS that was used when the programming error occurred during module reprogramming (MR) or programmable module installation (PMI). b. Disconnect the VCM from the data link connector (DLC) and the IDS. c. Reconnect the VCM to IDS and then connect to the DLC. Once reconnected, the VCM icon should appear in the corner of the IDS screen. If it does not, troubleshoot the IDS to VCM connection. d. Locate the original vehicle session when programming failed. This should be the last session used in most cases. If not, use the session created on the date that the programming failed. NOTE: If the original session is not listed in the previous session list, click the Recycle Bin icon at the lower right of the previous session screen. This loads any deleted sessions and allows you to look through them. Double-click the session to restore it. e. Once the session is loaded, the failed process should resume automatically. f. If programming does not resume automatically, proceed to the Module Programming menu and select the previously attempted process, PMI or MR. g. Follow all on-screen prompts/instructions. h. The last screen on the IDS may list additional steps required to complete the programming process. Make sure all applicable steps listed on the screen are followed in order.
