Summary

SUBJECT: NEW VEHICLE DEMONSTRATION / DELIVERY HOLD
Safety Recall 20S33 – Supplement #1
Certain 2020 Model Year Super Duty Vehicles
10R140 Transmission Replacement
New! REASON FOR THIS SUPPLEMENT
- Updated part status – All parts are available through normal order processing channels.
- Updated Parts Retention, Returning, and Scrapping Policy
AFFECTED VEHICLES
Vehicle | Model Year | Assembly Plant | Build Dates |
Super Duty | 2020 | Kentucky Truck | January 13, 2020 through February 19, 2020 |
Super Duty | 2020 | Ohio Assembly | January 29, 2020 |
Affected vehicles are identified in OASIS, FSA VIN Lists, and Attachment IV.
REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL
In some of the affected vehicles, the torque converter may break internally potentially causing the engine to stall and require increased brake pedal pressure while coming to a stop (similar to coming to a stop in a manual transmission without depressing the clutch). If the driver shifts to neutral or park the engine can be restarted and mobility may be regained but with an unexpected, aggressive reengagement upon selection of drive or reverse and the potential for re-stalling. This condition can increase the risk of a crash.
SERVICE ACTION
Before demonstrating or delivering any new in-stock vehicles involved in this recall, dealers are to replace the transmission. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.
OWNER NOTIFICATION AND MAILING SCHEDULE
Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of July 6, 2020. 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.

MOTOR COMPANY ISSUES A SAFETY COMPLIANCE RECALL AND A SAFETY RECALL IN NORTH AMERICA
Jun 25, 2020 | DEARBORN, Mich.
DEARBORN, Mich., June 25, 2020 – Ford Motor Company is issuing a safety compliance recall and a safety recall in North America.
Safety compliance recall for select 2020 Ford Expedition and Lincoln
Navigator vehicles
In affected vehicles, the attachment bracket for the second-row driver’s side headrest may not have been sufficiently welded to the seat frame.
An improperly welded headrest bracket may have reduced strength and may not adequately restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Ford is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition.
This action affects 2,620 vehicles in the United States, 159 in Canada and 19 in Mexico.
Affected vehicles were built at Kentucky Truck Plant as follows:
- Ford
Expedition vehicles from Feb. 26 to March 18, 2020
- Lincoln
Navigator vehicles from Feb. 27 to March 16, 2020
Dealers will inspect the seat structure and replace, if required. The Ford reference number for this recall is 20C12.
Safety recall for select 2020 Ford F–Series Super Duty vehicles with 6.7-liter engine and 10R140 transmission
Affected vehicles were built with a transmission torque-converter damper plate that was not tempered, resulting in a brittle damper plate that may fracture.
A fractured damper plate could cause the engine to stall and require increased brake pedal effort when coming to a stop. The engine can be restarted, and mobility may be regained if the driver shifts to neutral or park. However, there could be an unexpected, aggressive reengagement when shifting to drive or reverse and the potential for another engine stall. The vehicle will continue to exhibit these symptoms until the service fix is completed.
This condition can increase the risk of a crash. Ford is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition.
This action affects 13 vehicles in the United States and two in Canada.
Affected vehicles were built at Kentucky Truck Plant from Jan. 13 to Feb. 19, 2020, and at Ohio Assembly Plant on Jan. 29, 2020.
Dealers will replace the transmission. The Ford reference number for this recall is 20S33.

and Description:

What is the
issue?
On your vehicle, a transmission torque converter damper plate that was not tempered, may
result in a brittle damper plate that may fracture. The brittle damper plate may cause the
torque converter inside the transmission to break.
A broken torque converter may result in the engine stalling and require increased brake pedal
pressure while coming to a stop. If you shift the vehicle to neutral or park the engine can be
restarted and mobility may be regained but with an unexpected, aggressive reengagement
upon selection of drive or reverse and the potential for re-stalling. This condition can increase

20S33 – 10R140 CONVERTIDOR DE PAR
¿Cuál es el
problema?
Si una placa de amortiguación del convertidor de torsión de la transmisión de su vehículo no
fue templada, podría provocar fragilidad de la placa de amortiguación e incluso esta se
podría fracturar. Una placa de amortiguación frágil podría provocar el rompimiento del
convertidor de torsión en el interior de la transmisión.
Un convertidor de torsión averiado podría traducirse en un paro del motor, además de
requerir una mayor presión del pedal del freno mientras se detiene. Si cambia el vehículo a
neutral o a estacionamiento, el motor puede volver a arrancar y se podría recuperar la
movilidad pero con un reacoplamiento inesperado y agresivo al seleccionar manejo o
reversa y la posibilidad de un nuevo paro. Esta condición puede aumentar el riesgo de sufrir
un choque o lesiones.
