What is being recalled
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2022-2023 F-150, Mustang, Explorer, Bronco, and 2023 Lincoln Aviator vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions. The transmission may contain a loose bolt which could prevent the transmission from engaging the park gear, although the gear shifter position may indicate that the vehicle has been shifted to "PARK."
Why it is dangerous
The inability to secure the vehicle in the park position can result in a rollaway, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the transmissions, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 25, 2023. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 23S06.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 23V-070 when calling a dealer.
