Got a call from my ford dealer yesterday advising me that my MD Titanium wagon needs to come into the shop for about an hour to replace the battery harness. A quick google has found that:
“ models manufactured from January 2014 to January 2019. Potential leakage of battery acid around the battery negative terminal could cause the battery monitoring sensor to fail. Over time growth of copper sulphate may accumulate. This could provide a conductive layer underneath the Battery Monitoring Sensor, creating a low resistance to ground. The increased current flow, due to low resistance, could cause the surrounding material to heat up to a point where it ignites, resulting in a fire.” Can only find references to this in Europe and USA. Doesn’t seem to be on the Australian recall website, but did show up on the Ford owners page when I searched my VIN. Just a heads up for other Mondeo owners.
