Ford recall: Power train

What is wrong

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2016 F-650 trucks manufactured July 29, 2015, to September 3, 2015. The affected vehicles may have been built with an incorrect Park-Reverse-Neutral-Drive-Manual (PRNDM) steering column, instead of Reverse-Neutral-Drive-Manual (RNDM) steering column. If the vehicle has the incorrect steering column, is parked on a hill, and the PRNDM placed in "P", park pawl may fracture due to being overloaded.

What could happen

If the park pawl fractures, the vehicle may unexpectedly move, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the PRNDM steering column with the correct RNDM steering column, free of charge. The recall began on January 5, 2016. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 15S35.
