What happened

Ford Motor Company is recalling certain 2019 Ranger vehicles with 10-speed automatic transmissions due to a defect in the transmission floor shift selector interlock assembly. In affected vehicles, the transmission shift lever can be moved out of Park without the key in the ignition and without pressing the brake pedal. This failure to prevent unintended shifting creates a risk that the vehicle may move unexpectedly, potentially causing injury or crashes.

Ford began notifying owners in February 2019 and will repair the transmission floor shift selector interlock assembly at no cost to owners. Affected consumers should contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 to have their vehicle inspected and repaired. Ford's recall number for this issue is 19C02.
