Ford bushing that attaches the shifter cable to the transmission may degrade or detach.
The short version
Ford Motor Company reported a problem with the power train shift linkage/cable/rod. Here is what owners need to know.
The bushing that attaches the shifter cable to the transmission may degrade or detach.
A damaged or missing bushing may prevent the vehicle from shifting into the intended gear, and cause the vehicle to move in an unexpected direction. Additionally, the vehicle may roll after the driver selects the 'Park' position.
Take it to a dealer — they will replace the under hood shifter bushing and add a protective cap over the shift cable bushing, free of charge.
