  • UK Recall: Clutch pressure plate may fracture
    >Affected vehicles fitted with a 1.0 1.5 or 1.6 ecoboost engine and 6-speed manual transmission could suffer clutch pressure plate fracture. this results in clutch smell reduced vehicle speed and performance. in the unlikely event of clutch pressure plate fracture a noise (thud / bang) could be heard from the vicinity of the transmission in extreme cases resulting in clutch / transmission fragments being released and striking under hood components creating a risk of smoke and fire from the under hood area.

    Corrective Action:
    To prevent the repeated heating /cooling events a new calibration has been developed for vehicles fitted with engine stop start feature. the software with the additional feature sets the instrument panel ?wrench light? and de-rates the engine performance if prolonged clutch slip is detected. the software feature includes a drive cycle strategy for latching the wrench light and engine performance de-rate if the customer should experience repeated clutch slip events. for vehicles that do not have engine stop start feature an alternative clutch kit has been released.
