Details

Issue: On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the powertrain control module (PCM) to reset while driving.

If this happens, the parking pawl could become damaged.

As a result, when the transmission is shifted to Park, the vehicle could move if the parking brake is not applied.

Additionally, under certain conditions, there could be a loss of power to the wheels.

Note: This recall only affects certain vehicles equipped with a 2.3 L engine.

Safety Risk: A parked vehicle that rolls away could create the risk of an injury or a crash.

A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the powertrain control module (PCM) software.

The dealer will also inspect and, if necessary, replace the transmission.
