NEW VEHICLE DEMONSTRATION / DELIVERY HOLD
Compliance Recall 19C02
Certain 2019 Model Year Ranger Vehicles
Brake Transmission Shift Interlock Override - Wire Routing
Affected Vehicles:Compliance Recall 19C02
Certain 2019 Model Year Ranger Vehicles
Brake Transmission Shift Interlock Override - Wire Routing
Vehicle: Ranger
Model Year: 2019
Assembly Plant: Michigan
Build Dates: June 04, 2018 through January 09, 2019
Reasons for this Compliance Recall:
Some of the affected vehicles may not conform to the requirements specified by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 114, theft protection and rollaway prevention. On some vehicles, improperly routed transmission floor shift selector wiring may interfere with the brake transmission shift interlock override plunger. This may prevent the shifter from locking in the park position allowing the shifter to move without the key in the starting system and without depressing the brake pedal. If the park brake is not applied on the vehicle, this can result in unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of injury or crash.
Service Action:
Before demonstrating or delivering any new in-stock vehicles involved in this recall, dealers are to inspect the brake transmission shifter interlock functionality for proper operation by attempting to move the shifter out of "park" without starting the vehicle and without pressing the brake pedal. If the vehicle can be shifted out of "park", the shifter will be inspected for wiring interference with the interlock plunger and misrouted wires will be repositioned off the plunger. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.
Owner Notification Mailing Schedule:
Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of February 18, 2019. Dealers should repair affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter.
