REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL

In some of the affected vehicles, due to a calibration error, if the driver moves the transmission shifter from Park to Drive very quickly, the vehicle may exhibit a loss of PRNDL gear indication in the instrument cluster and momentary (about one second) vehicle movement in Reverse before the vehicle achieves forward Drive function.  This could result in unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of accident or injury.  A driver could alternatively experience momentary Neutral operation rather than Reverse.

 

SERVICE ACTION

Dealers are to reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) with IDS Release 107.04 (expected to be released on October 25, 2017) or higher level.  This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.

When operating affected vehicles prior to this repair, make sure to carefully shift into the desired gear, and confirm intended gear selection in the PRNDL instrument cluster display.

 

OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE

Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of November 20, 2017.  Dealers should repair any affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter.

PLEASE NOTE:

Federal law requires dealers to complete this recall service before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee.  Violation of this requirement by a dealer could result in a civil penalty of up to $21,000 per vehicle.  Correct all vehicles in your new vehicle inventory before delivery.

 

SOLD VEHICLES

  • Owners of affected vehicles will be directed to dealers for repairs.
  • Immediately contact any of your affected customers whose vehicles are not on your VIN list but are identified in OASIS. Give the customer a copy of the Owner Notification Letter (when available) and schedule a service date.
  • Correct other affected vehicles identified in OASIS which are brought to your dealership.
  • Dealers are to prioritize repairs of customer vehicles over repairs of new and used vehicle inventory.

 

STOCK VEHICLES

  • Correct all affected units in your new vehicle inventory before delivery.

 

DEALER-OPERATED RENTAL VEHICLES

The Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act law effective June 2016 prohibits a rental company from selling, renting or leasing vehicles subject to a safety or compliance recall.  Please consult your legal counsel for legal advice.

OVERVIEW

In some of the affected vehicles, due to a calibration error, if the driver moves the transmission shifter from Park to Drive very quickly, the vehicle may exhibit a loss of PRNDL gear indication in the instrument cluster and momentary (about one second) vehicle movement in Reverse before the vehicle achieves forward Drive function.  This could result in unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of accident or injury.  A driver could alternatively experience momentary Neutral operation rather than Reverse.  Dealers are to reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) with IDS Release 107.04 (expected to be released on October 25, 2017) or higher level.

When operating affected vehicles prior to this repair, make sure to carefully shift into the desired gear, and confirm intended gear selection in the PRNDL instrument cluster display.

 

SERVICE PROCEDURE

Module Reprogramming

NOTE:  Reprogram appropriate vehicle modules before performing diagnostics and clear all DTCs after          programming.  For DTCs generated after reprogramming, follow normal diagnostic service procedures.

  1. Connect a battery charger to the 12V battery.
  2. Reprogram the PCM using Integrated Diagnostic Software (IDS) release 107.04 or higher.

NOTE:  Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraftservice.com.

NOTE:  Follow the IDS on-screen instructions to complete the reprogramming procedure.

  1. Disconnect the battery charger from the 12V battery once the reprogramming has completed.

 

Important Information for Module Programming                                                                                                                

NOTE:  When programming or reprogramming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes without errors.

  • Make sure the 12V battery is fully charged before carrying out the programming steps and connect IDS/scan tool to a power source.
  • Inspect Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) and cables for any damage. Make sure scan tool connections are not interrupted during programming.
  • A hardwired connection is strongly recommended.
  • Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC system, etc.) and close doors.
  • Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio, etc.).
  • Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully.
  • Disable IDS/scan tool sleep mode, screensaver, hibernation modes.
  • Create all sessions key on engine off (KOEO).  Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause errors within the programming inhale process.

 

Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module:
NEVER DELETE THE ORIGINAL SESSION!

a. Obtain the original IDS that was used when the programming error occurred during module reprogramming (MR) or programmable module installation (PMI).

b. Disconnect the VCM from the data link connector (DLC) and the IDS.

c. Reconnect the VCM to IDS and then connect to the DLC.  Once reconnected, the VCM icon should appear in the corner of the IDS screen.  If it does not, troubleshoot the IDS to VCM connection.

d. Locate the original vehicle session when programming failed.  This should be the last session used in most cases.  If not, use the session created on the date that the programming failed.

NOTE:  If the original session is not listed in the previous session list, click the Recycle Bin icon at the lower right of the previous session screen.  This loads any deleted sessions and allows you to look through them.  Double-click the session to restore it.

e. Once the session is loaded, the failed process should resume automatically.

f.  If programming does not resume automatically, proceed to the Module Programming menu and select the previously attempted process, PMI or MR.

g. Follow all on-screen prompts/instructions.

h. The last screen on the IDS may list additional steps required to complete the programming process. Make sure all applicable steps listed on the screen are followed in order.

Ford Issues Four Safety Recalls in North America

DEARBORN, Mich., Oct. 25, 2017FordeBay logo Motor Company is issuing four safety recalls in North America. Details are as follows:

 

2015-17 FordeBay logo Transit vehicles equipped with trailer tow module

  • FordeBay logo is issuing a safety recall for approximately 73,000 2015-17 FordeBay logo Transit vehicles equipped with a trailer tow module for water intrusion into the module and connector resulting in potential wiring corrosion and damage to the module.
  • In affected vehicles, water intrusion into the module may result in rapid flashing of the turn signals, loss of the instrument cluster display, loss of heater and air conditioning controls, and loss of multimedia including radio, screens and SYNC. Wiring corrosion from prolonged water intrusion could also result in an electrical short to the ground, which could cause uncommanded seat belt pretensioner deployment, a burning smell and/or increased risk of fire, including when the vehicle is parked and the ignition is off.
  • FordeBay logo is not aware of any accidents or injuries associated with this issue. FordeBay logo is aware of two reports of vehicle fires on Canadian fleet vehicles potentially related to this condition.
  • Affected vehicles include 2015-17 FordeBay logo Transit vehicles built at Kansas City Assembly Plant, Feb. 3, 2014 to Aug. 2, 2017.
  • The recall involves approximately 73,443 vehicles in North America with 65,206 in the United States and federalized territories and 8,365 in Canada. The FordeBay logo reference number for this recall is 17S34.
  • Until the final repair is performed, customers will be instructed to park their vehicles outside. As an interim repair, until parts are available for the final repair, customers may have dealers disable the trailer module. For the final repair, dealers will add a drainage hole to the driver’s door stepwell and incorporate a fuse into the vehicle wiring harness. All of these services and repairs will be performed at no cost to the customer.

 

2018 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles with 3.3-liter engine, six-speed transmission and column-mounted shift lever

  • FordeBay logo is issuing a safety recall for approximately 15,000 2018 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles with 3.3liter engines, six-speed transmissions and column-mounted shift lever for inaccurate gear selection that could result in unintended vehicle movement.
  • In affected vehicles, rapid movement of the transmission shifter from park to drive may cause loss of PRNDL gear indication in the instrument cluster and momentary engagement of reverse operation before the vehicle achieves forward drive function. An operator could alternatively experience momentary neutral operation rather than reverse. Unintended vehicle movement may increase the risk of accident or injury.
  • FordeBay logo is not aware of any accidents or injuries associated with this issue.
  • Affected vehicles include:
  • 2018 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles built at Dearborn Assembly Plant, Jan. 12, 2017 to Oct. 9, 2017
  • 2018 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles built at Kansas City Assembly Plant, Jan. 30, 2017 to Oct. 9, 2017
  • The recall involves approximately 15,031 vehicles in North America with 12,429 in the United States and federalized territories, 2,023 in Canada and 579 in Mexico. The FordeBay logo reference number for this recall is 17S35.
  • Dealers will reprogram the powertrain control module with the latest level calibration software at no cost to the customer. Prior to completion of repairs, customers and dealers will be instructed to carefully shift into the desired gear and confirm intended gear selection in the PRNDL instrument cluster display.

 

2017 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles with 10-speed automatic transmission

  • FordeBay logo is issuing a safety recall for approximately 15,000 2017 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles with 10-speed automatic transmissions for an inability to shift the transmission using the shift lever.
  • In affected vehicles, the pin attaching the transmission shift linkage to the transmission may come out. If this happens, movement of the shift lever by the driver will not change the transmission gear, which will remain in the gear it was in when the pin came out regardless of the position of the shift lever. The shifter indicator could display inaccurate information and the key can be removed even if the vehicle is not in park; however, a warning chime will sound and a message will be displayed in the instrument cluster indicating “Transmission not in park.” If the transmission is not in the park or neutral position, the driver would not be able to restart the vehicle. If a vehicle cannot be shifted to park and the parking brake is not applied, unintended vehicle movement may occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
  • FordeBay logo is not aware of any accidents or injuries associated with this issue.
  • Affected vehicles include:
  • 2017 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles built at Kansas City Assembly Plant, Sept. 16, 2016 to Aug. 9, 2017
  • 2017 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles built at Dearborn Assembly Plant, Aug. 23, 2016 to July 2, 2017
  • The recall involves approximately 14,952 vehicles in North America, including 11,783 in the United States and federalized territories, 3,169 in Canada and 701 in Mexico. The FordeBay logo reference number for this recall is 17S36.
  • Dealers will remove the roll pin and replace it with an updated part at no cost to the customer. Prior to getting their vehicle repaired, customers and dealers will be instructed to make sure the parking brake is applied whenever the vehicle is parked.

  • FordeBay logo is issuing a safety recall for approximately 30 2018 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles with 3.5-liter engines for possible loss of motive power and engine failure.
  • In affected vehicles, certain cylinder heads manufactured for 3.5-liter engines are missing machined holes intended to supply lubrication to the camshaft-bearing journals. Lack of proper camshaft lubrication will result in premature engine failure and loss of motive power without warning while driving, increasing the risk of accident or injury.
  • FordeBay logo is not aware of any accidents or injuries associated with this issue.
  • Affected vehicles include:
  • 2018 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles built at Dearborn Assembly Plant, Sept. 3-16, 2017
  • 2018 FordeBay logo F-150 vehicles built at Kansas City Assembly Plant, Sept. 5-17, 2017
  • The recall involves approximately 30 vehicles in North America with 22 in the United States and federalized territories, seven in Canada and one in Mexico. The FordeBay logo reference number for this recall is 17S37.
