Ford is recalling some 160,00 Focus ST and Escape models to fix a problem with the wiring that could cause engines to stall.
The recall involves 142,000 Escape crossovers and 17,400 Focus ST hatchbacks powered by 2.0-litre turbocharged engines. The company said that a fault in the wiring harness could result in incorrect signals being sent to the ECU which could cause the engine to stutter or even stall.
