Ford affected vehicles may have been built with an incorrect Park-Reverse-Neutral-Drive-Manual (prndm) steering column, instead of Reverse-Neutral-Drive-Manual (rndm) steering column.
The short version
Ford Motor Company reported a problem with the automatic transmission gear position indication (prndl). Here is what owners need to know.
The affected vehicles may have been built with an incorrect Park-Reverse-Neutral-Drive-Manual (PRNDM) steering column, instead of Reverse-Neutral-Drive-Manual (RNDM) steering column. If the vehicle has the incorrect steering column, is parked on a hill, and the PRNDM placed in "P", park pawl may fracture due to being overloaded.
If the park pawl fractures, the vehicle may unexpectedly move, increasing the risk of a crash.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the PRNDM steering column with the correct RNDM steering column, free of charge.
