June 12 (Reuters) - Ford is recalling 255,404 vehicles in the U.S. over an issue with the canister purge valve, which may malfunction, causing the engine to stall unexpectedly while driving, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Friday.
The recall affects certain 2012-2018 Focus vehicles which were previously repaired incorrectly, the regulator said.
The dealers will update the powertrain control module doftware free of charge, as per NHTSA.
The regulator said the affected vehicles may be identified with an illuminated malfunction indicator light or customers may observe inaccurate fuel gauge indication.
