| Description of the problem | Recall 19s07: recall description: on your vehicle, an intermittent failure of the output speed sensor (oss) in the transmission may result in an unintended downshift to first gear. Risk to safety: an unintended downshift into first gear can cause an abrupt wheel speed reduction, which could cause the rear tires to slide until the vehicle speed slows down. This condition could result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash. Remedy program: ford motor company has authorized your dealer to reprogram the powertrain control module with software that will prevent an unintended downshift into first gear in the event of an intermittent oss failure. This service will be performed free of charge (parts and labor). F-150 3. 5l, 5. 0l, and 6. 2l vehicles: ford motor company is working as quickly as possible to develop the software for this repair.
