Transport Canada Recall - 2019225 -
Brand(s)
Summary
Affected products
2019 | FORD | RANGER
Issue
On certain trucks, the transmission shift cable bracket may detach. This could cause the transmission not to shift gears when the shifter is moved. As a result, the transmission could be in a different gear than the gear shifter indicates. If a driver attempts to exit the truck while the transmission is not in Park, and the parking brake is not applied, the truck could move suddenly.
Safety risk
Sudden and unexpected movement of the truck could increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective actions
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their truck to a dealer to inspect the transmission shift cable bracket bolts. The bolts will be tightened as necessary and the technician will ensure the shifter operates properly.
