REASON FOR THIS SUPPLEMENT Program Terms: All VINs that were previously expired under this program, and have not yet been repaired, have been reopened. This program will be in effect through August 31, 2020. Owner Notification: Owners of affected vehicles included in this program extension will be notified the week of September 2, 2019. New! PROGRAM TERMS This program will be in effect through August 31, 2020. There is no mileage limit for this program. New! EXPIRATION DATE This Customer Satisfaction Program has an expiration date of August 31, 2020 to encourage dealers and customers to have this service performed as soon as possible. We recommend dealers utilize their FSA VIN Lists name and address (available after all owner letters are mailed) to contact customers with affected vehicles. This will help minimize the number of vehicles that may experience a Transmission Control Module (TCM) failure. AFFECTED VEHICLES Vehicle Model Year Assembly Plant Build Dates Fiesta 2011-2015 Cuautitlan November 3, 2009 through October 15, 2014 Focus 2012-2014 Michigan August 1, 2010 through October 26, 2014 Affected vehicles are identified in OASIS. Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company AFFECTED VEHICLES (Continued) NOTE: Some vehicles covered by 15B22 may also be eligible for coverage by 14M01 (DPS6 Transmission Clutch Shudder / Transmission Input Shaft Seal Warranty Extension) and /or 14M02 (Transmission Control Module Extended Warranty Coverage). Always consult OASIS to determine repairs and coverage that may apply. NOTE: The following Field Service Action and Technical Service Bulletin include reprogramming the TCM/PCM and clutch adaptive learn strategy updates that are performed in this FSA: • FSA 14M02 • TSB 16-0129 Therefore, it is not necessary to perform 15B22 separately, and 15B22 will be closed automatically when repairs for either of these programs are performed. REASON FOR THIS PROGRAM This customer satisfaction program updates the TCM software in affected vehicles to provide improved detection and overt warning of electrical circuit failures in the TCM. As communicated in a previous Customer Satisfaction Program (14M02), electrical circuit failures within the TCM may develop and result in intermittent symptoms of loss of transmission engagement while driving, no-start, or a lack of power. Updating the TCM software will help ensure the vehicle operator is alerted to potential issues with the TCM prior to failure. SERVICE ACTION Dealers are to reprogram the TCM using IDS release 114.04 or higher. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner. New! OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE Owners of affected vehicles included in this program extension will be notified the week of September 2, 2019. Dealers should repair any affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter.

Electrical circuit failures within the TCM may develop and result in intermittent symptoms of loss of transmission engagement while driving, no-start, or a lack of power. Updating the TCM software will help ensure the vehicle operator is alerted to potential issues with the TCM prior to failure. Before delivering any of the vehicles involved in this program, dealers are to reprogram the TCM using IDS release 114.04 or higher. NOTE: The following Field Service Action and Technical Service Bulletin include reprogramming the TCM/powertrain control module (PCM) and clutch adaptive learn strategy updates that are performed in this FSA: • FSA 14M02 • TSB 16-0129 Therefore, it is not necessary to perform 15B22 separately, and 15B22 should not be claimed, when repairs for either of these programs are performed. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. Reprogram the PCM/TCM to the latest calibration using IDS release 114.04 or later. Ignition MUST be cycled OFF for at least 15-30 seconds following completion of the reprogramming process. See "Module Reprogramming" on Page 2 for additional information. NOTE: For 2.0L Focus models: • Prior to running clutch adaptive learning but after PCM/TCM reprogramming, it may be necessary to Start the engine and hold at Wide Open Throttle (WOT) until the temperature gauge reads 1/2 up the gauge display. Once at the appropriate temperature range, Key OFF then Key ON and initiate the clutch adaptive learning routine. • If there is difficulty completing (passing) clutch adaptive learning, it may be necessary to turn on the headlamps/high beams with blower on high with AC OFF to add load and smooth out the idle. NOTE: It is important that consistent brake pedal pressure be maintained throughout the learn procedure. NOTE: Do not turn the steering wheel during the learn procedure. CPR © 2019 FORD MOTOR COMPANY DEARBORN, MICHIGAN 48121 8/2019 ATTACHMENT III PAGE 2 OF 3 CUSTOMER SATISFACTION RECALL 15B22-S3 2. Perform TCM clutch adaptive learning procedure. a. Run the engine until the instrument panel temperature gauge is reading between 1/3 and 1/2 of the normal range. b. Turn off all electrical accessories including rear defrost, HVAC, etc. c. Using the Ford approved diagnostic tool, navigate to the TCM Adaptive Learning sub menu. d. Select Clutch. e. Follow the instructions displayed on IDS. 3. After reprogramming and clutch adaptive learning are complete, check and adjust the vehicle clock as required. Module Reprogramming NOTE: Reprogram appropriate vehicle modules before performing diagnostics and clear all diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) after programming. For DTCs generated after reprogramming, follow normal diagnostic service procedures. 1. Connect a battery charger to the 12V battery. 2. Reprogram the PCM using IDS release 114.04 or higher. NOTE: Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraftservice.com. NOTE: Follow the IDS on-screen instructions to complete the reprogramming procedure. 3. Disconnect the battery charger from the 12V battery, once the reprogramming has completed. CPR © 2019 FORD MOTOR COMPANY DEARBORN, MICHIGAN 48121 8/2019 ATTACHMENT III PAGE 3 OF 3 CUSTOMER SATISFACTION RECALL 15B22-S3 Important Information for Module Programming NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: Reprogram appropriate vehicle modules before performing diagnostics and clear all diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) after programming. For DTCs generated after reprogramming, follow normal diagnostic service procedures. Performing the service routines will clear adaptive strategy. Failure to perform all steps of the IDS routines may result in erratic shifts and driveabilty concerns. When programming or reprogramming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes without errors. • Make sure the 12V battery is fully 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. 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. Near the end of programming, the IDS prompts you to select certain parameters. It is important to make a selection for ALL parameters listed. If the correct selection is already highlighted, you must still choose that selection before clicking the "Tick" mark to complete the configuration. i. 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.
