Ford Kuga recall extends to Botswana

According to Barloworld Motor Botswana’s managing director, Ian Utting, following the reports from South Africa they have also recalled all the 24 sold Kugas while the four they use in-house will also go through an assessment. The recall is limited to 1.6 litre models manufactured in Valencia, Spain, between December 2012 and February 2014. “Even though we have not yet received any report of a burning Kuga in Botswana, we have decided to recall all of them for assessment and have been busy trying to contact all the owners of the 24 Kugas we have sold,” he said.

Utting said they intend to check the faulty parts in the engine and replace them immediately.
