Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Ford is recalling certain 2018 F-650, F-750, F-150, and Expedition vehicles with automatic transmissions because the gear shift cable clip may become unseated or dislodged. When this occurs, the gear shift lever position may indicate the transmission is in 'Park' when it is actually in a different gear. Additionally, if a driver selects 'Park' but does not apply the parking brake before exiting the vehicle, the vehicle may roll. Both situations increase the risk of a crash.

Ford will notify affected owners, and authorized dealers will inspect the shift cable locking clip and properly seat it if necessary at no charge. The recall began on April 13, 2018. Owners of recalled vehicles can contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 for more information. Ford's recall number is 18S10.
