The short version
Ford Motor Company reported a problem with the automatic transmission control module (tcm/pcm/tecm). Here is what owners need to know.
The affected vehicles may detect an incorrect Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor (EGT) fault indicating that the vehicle is too hot, causing the engine management system to shut down the engine and prevent its immediate restart.
Engine shut down and a subsequent cool down period may delay medical treatment or assistance to those needing it, increasing their risk of injury.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will update the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) software, free of charge.
