Reported risk: Issue:
On a small number of Escape Hybrid models, there could be a problem inside the high-voltage battery that can cause a loss of power. If this happens, a "Stop Safely Now" message and a wrench light will appear in the instrument panel and an alert will sound.
Note: This recall only affects certain vehicles equipped with a 2.5 L hybrid powertrain.
Safety Risk:
A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the high-voltage battery.
Verify each fact at the issuing agency before acting. Recall scope, affected lots, and remediation instructions may be updated by the agency after our last sync.
