| Recurring |
unknown |
<Article 128921> The article does not mention any software failure incident related to either one_organization or multiple_organization. Therefore, the information about the software failure incident happening again at a specific organization or across multiple organizations is unknown in this context.</Article> |
| Phase (Design/Operation) |
unknown |
The article does not mention any software failure incident related to the development phases of design or operation. Therefore, it is unknown whether the reported Ford Bronco engine failures were due to contributing factors introduced during system development, system updates, procedures to operate, or maintain the system ([128921]). |
| Boundary (Internal/External) |
within_system |
The software failure incident related to the Ford Bronco engine failures is within_system. The issue is specifically related to a faulty valve within the engine, which is a component of the system itself. The failure is attributed to a potential supplier issue where a bad batch of valves made it into production engines, leading to engine failures [128921]. |
| Nature (Human/Non-human) |
unknown |
The article does not mention any software failure incident related to non-human actions or human actions. Therefore, the information related to software failure incidents in the article is unknown. |
| Dimension (Hardware/Software) |
hardware |
(a) The software failure incident related to the Ford Bronco engine failures is not directly attributed to hardware issues but rather to a faulty valve that can lead to catastrophic engine failure. The issue is specifically mentioned as a potential supplier problem where a bad batch of valves made it into production engines, which can become brittle under the stresses of the combustion chamber [128921].
(b) The software failure incident is not explicitly mentioned to be originating from software issues in the articles provided. The focus is on the faulty valve causing engine failures rather than any software-related contributing factors. |
| Objective (Malicious/Non-malicious) |
non-malicious |
The software failure incident related to the Ford Bronco engine failures mentioned in Article 128921 is non-malicious. The issue is attributed to a faulty valve in the engine, specifically a bad batch of valves that can become brittle under the stresses of the combustion chamber. This problem is likely a supplier issue, indicating a non-malicious failure caused by a manufacturing defect rather than intentional harm to the system [128921]. |
| Intent (Poor/Accidental Decisions) |
unknown |
The articles do not mention any software failure incident related to poor decisions or accidental decisions. Therefore, the intent of the software failure incident in this case is unknown. |
| Capability (Incompetence/Accidental) |
unknown |
The article does not mention any software failure incident related to development incompetence or accidental factors. Therefore, the information related to these specific types of software failure incidents is unknown in this context. |
| Duration |
unknown |
The software failure incident reported in the article is not related to a permanent or temporary software failure. Instead, it is related to engine failures in Ford Bronco vehicles due to a faulty valve issue [128921]. |
| Behaviour |
other |
(a) crash: The software failure incident in this case is not related to a crash where the system loses state and does not perform any of its intended functions. The issue reported is related to engine failures in Ford Bronco vehicles, specifically a loss of power due to a faulty valve [Article 128921].
(b) omission: The software failure incident is not due to the system omitting to perform its intended functions at an instance(s). The reported issue is specifically related to engine failures in Ford Bronco vehicles, caused by a faulty valve leading to a loss of power [Article 128921].
(c) timing: The software failure incident is not due to the system performing its intended functions correctly but too late or too early. The issue reported is related to engine failures in Ford Bronco vehicles, specifically a loss of power due to a faulty valve [Article 128921].
(d) value: The software failure incident is not due to the system performing its intended functions incorrectly. The reported issue is related to engine failures in Ford Bronco vehicles, specifically a loss of power due to a faulty valve [Article 128921].
(e) byzantine: The software failure incident is not related to the system behaving erroneously with inconsistent responses and interactions. The issue reported is specifically related to engine failures in Ford Bronco vehicles, caused by a faulty valve leading to a loss of power [Article 128921].
(f) other: The software failure incident in this case is related to a hardware issue involving a faulty valve in the engine of Ford Bronco vehicles, leading to a loss of power. It is not directly attributed to a software failure [Article 128921]. |
