wonder what the actual build date problems were, think mine was built either Dec06 or Jan07. already got it booked in for next week because the driver window is catching the seal when it goes up.

least Ford are doing something about it, anyone see watchdog with those Clio bonnets :| omg.

Well mine was built around the beginning of March 05 so if I've got a letter then I should think you might too

Thanks for the heads up. I'm off to Australia for three weeks so it'll have to wait till after Easter. If I don't find a letter on the mat when I get back I'll go asking questions.

The clutch pedal on mine makes a noise, but it sounds like the return spring is vibrating as the pedal rises.

And I'll check the piston rod pivot bolt is tight before I drive home!

It only affects right hand drive vehicles.
Guess what it's a TVM cost down that's gone wrong!!
Just like all your rattling doors and windows and seats!!

Well done TVM.

The squeaky clutch pedal is a seperate issue that is not on a recall.
Some grease on the spring will sort it

my mums fiesta (sept build06) has been recalled...
my car (nov/dec build06) hasnt had a letter yet. but my post is always slower than their house's


could this be the washer that means i seem to have a 2 speed gearbox? ie... it either stalls or takes off like a rocket!

Mine was may/June 05 and so far nothing.

I looked at the pedal assembly and there's no bolt, just a short rod on the pedal arm that the clutch piston rod eye fits over. So there's nothing to stop the piston rod end eye moving off the end of the rod except the fact it would have to be seriously distorted out of line to do it. I expect this washer thingy is just one of those with fingers round the inside of the hole that pushes on but grips hard when you want to take it off.

Mine was snug up against the pedal arm. I'll keep an eye on it till I hear from Ford.

I recieved my letter this morning. Good timing actuall as Ive booked mine in this tuesday for its first service and to finally sort this clunking sound out from the n/s front!! (car been in 4 times to get fixed and they couldnt find the problem!!)... so they can also carry out the recall at the same time.
