Program Timing

Affected cars are eligible for this program through December 31, 1995 regardless of mileage. (After December 31, 1995 a car is still eligible for this program if it is within the 36 month/36,000 mile Bumper-to-Bumper warranty).

Affected Vehicles

* All 1993 and 1994 Model Year Base Ford Probe Cars equipped with 2.0L engines, and produced from April 16, 1992 through January 3, 1994, (the SE 2.0L model is not affected).

* All 1993 Ford Probe GT Cars equipped with 2.5L engines, and produced from April 16, 1992 thorough December 8, 1992.

Reason For This Program

The fresh air intake duct on some of these vehicles does not provide adequate sealing to prevent water from being ingested into the engine. If significant water enters the engine, such as when driving through deep standing water, the internal components may be damaged, rendering the vehicle inoperative.

Service Action

To prevent water from being ingested into the engine, the fresh air intake duct on the affected vehicles will have a seal kit installed.

Refunds

Only for owner-paid repairs made before the date of the Owner Letter or after the date of the Owner Letter if an emergency repair was made away from the selling dealer.
