Ford of Canada is recalling 78,013 C-MAX and Escape vehicles from 2013-2014 because a defect in the restraint control module programming may delay deployment of the side curtain airbags in certain rollover circumstances. Dealers will reprogram the restraint control module as a result.
Another recall affects 89,539 Ford Escapes from the same model years. Misalignment of the exterior door handle and door panel may cause the door handle to bind. If this occurs, the door may open while driving or may be difficult to close. A vehicle operated in this condition would present a higher risk of injury and/or property damage. Therefore, dealers will inspect all four exterior door handles and reposition them as necessary.
