The short version

Ford Motor Company reported a problem with the lever and linkage floor shift. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The bushing that attaches the transmission shifter cable to the transmission may degrade over time and cause the bushing to detach from the transmission. The condition could allow the driver to move the shift lever to Park and remove the ignition key, while the transmission may not be in Park, with no warning message or audible chime.

WHY IT MATTERS

If the vehicle is exited without the transmission being in Park and without the parking brake being applied, the vehicle may unexpectedly move, increasing the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the shifter cable bushing, free of charge.
