FORD issued a recall on the TEMPO and TOPAZ models

THE ATTACHMENT SCREWS FOR THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR COULD LOOSEN AND BACK OUT ALLOWING THE THROTTLE SENSOR TO MOVE AWAY FROM THE THROTTLE SHAFT. A LOOSE SENSOR COULD PREVENT THE THROTTLE FROM RETURNING TO THE IDLE POSITION WHICH IN TURN COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT VEHICLE CONTROL. CORRECTION: ATTACHMENT SCREWS WILL BE REPLACED USING SCREWS WITH PRE-APPLIED ADHESIVE THAT WILL BE TIGHTENED TO A HIGHER TORQUE SPECIFICATION.
