    They’re not fixing the leaks, they’re making the car detect when it starts spraying gasoline inside the engine compartment so it will enter limp mode before a fire starts.

    The driver can then push their disabled car to the side of the road, and assuming they weren’t killed in traffic, then Ford will replace the faulty injector.

        Are you sure? It’sa Ford after all. Limp mode could mean a hammer drops from under the dash, smashes one of your knees, and puts you in limp mode.
