NHTSA recall 10V222000
Power Train · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: The park rod guide retention pin may not have been properly installed which fails to conform to the requirement of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 114, "theft protection and rollaway prevention".
Why it matters: A vehicle parked without an engaged park pawl and without an applied parking brake may have unintended movement which may cause a crash.
The fix: Ford will notify owners and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge. The safety recall began on May 28, 2010.
