Ford Kuga fire risk

(Mods, put here deliberately rather than a subforum due to potential risk to owners)

Any owners, worth reading this (advised not to charge hybrid battery due to fire risk, exit car immediately if warning light comes on).

I’m not an owner, but doesn’t look like a great response from Ford…

One of the later paras is a new one on me...

"According to the Association of British Insurers, failure to inform a car insurance provider of a recall notice could invalidate their cover if they need to make a claim."

Our Disco Sport has just been subject to a "non-safety related recall" notice to check steering rack bolts and there is a long wait for a garage slot.
