 Description of the problemVin: [xxx] recall date: apr 25, 2016 recall title: powertrain control module reprogramming nhtsa recall number: awaiting# ford recall number: 16s19 recall description: some vehicles may experience an intermittent loss of the transmission output speed sensor (oss) signal to the powertrain control module, potentially resulting in a temporary, unintended downshift into first gear. In some cases, the oss signal could recover while driving and the vehicle will resume normal function; in other cases the vehicle may need to be stopped and restarted to regain normal transmission operation. Ford is aware of three reports of accidents and no injuries related to this condition on the affected vehicles. Risk to safety: depending on vehicle speed at the time of the downshift, an unintended downshift into first gear may occur causing the rear tires to slide or lock up until the vehicle slows. This may result in a loss of vehicle control without warning, increasing the risk of a crash. Remedy program: owners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a ford or lincoln dealer to have the powertrain control module reprogrammed with updated software. There will be no charge for this service. Ford is excluding reimbursement for costs because the original warranty program would provide for a free repair for this concern. Ford will forward a copy of the notification letters to dealers to the agency when available. Status: 12 - recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available. Manufacturer notes: to check for non-safety-related programs applicable to your vehicle, see http://www. Ford. Com/ or call your ford dealer. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
