Ford Motor Co. is recalling 64,038 2013- to 2017-model year Ford Focus and Ford Focus RS vehicles with manual transmissions and rear hatchbacks, so dealers in the U.S. can update the hatchback interior release software, the automaker said.
In these vehicles, the rear hatchback can be unlocked and unlatched with a single press of the interior latch release when the vehicle is traveling under 4 mph. The latch release button is located on the left side of the steering column. Federal safety standards require two separate actions to unlock the door and operate the interior latch release control mechanism.
