Ford has recalled almost 5000 vehicles in Australia fitted with its EcoBoost engines, due to the risk of an engine fire.

For Australia, the recall targets the Kuga SUV and the Fiesta ST hot hatch, with 4850 and 400 vehicles respectively on the recall list locally.

The problem has reared its head in various Ford models around the world, causing the global carmaker to act.

Affected Kuga models were built between December 2012 and July 2014, while Fiesta STs on the recall list were made between March 2013 and November 2014. All are fitted with the 1.6 litre four-cylinder EcoBoost petrol engine.

The problems stem from a lack of coolant circulation around the cylinder head, which may lead to localised overheating.
