- This problem was the subject of a FoMoCo recall recently. It is
- apparently the computer itself that causes the problem. Since this is
- an emissions related part, if your car has less than 50,000 miles on
- it the dealer should do it for free.
-
- Call (800) 392-3673 to find out if your car is part of this recall.
- Have your VIN handy.
