Ford recall Focus for clutch cracks

I've been sent a letter from Ford advising me that my car would need to go into a registered Ford garage to have the clutch looked at as there have been about four instances of the clutch plate cracking whilst in motion.

Booked it in this afternoon and went for a stroll for a couple of hours while they repaired it.
Turns out they have fitted a brand new clutch plate and cleaned my car including valeting all for nothing.

Very impressed with their service

Yes Barry, it's nice to get some decent after-sales service for a change.

It must have cost Ford millions to sort this problem out. It affects just the Focus Ecoboost from 2014 on.
Didn't have a coffee though mate, I decided to walk into the town of Beverley and quaffed a pint of Wainwright ale instead

My fiesta had a recall a couple of months ago, apparently the drivers seat could come loose or something, all sorted now..
