Ford is recalling approximately 890 model year 2019 Expedition vehicles that were previously repaired incorrectly under a prior recall. The "Transmission Not In Park" warning message and the accompanying alert chime do not stay active for the intended length of time. Ford dealers will provide a free software update for the instrument cluster panel to ensure the warnings function correctly.
If the warning message and chime are too short, a driver may exit the vehicle without realizing the transmission is not in park. This can lead to unintended vehicle movement, which increases the risk of a crash or injury to the driver, passengers, or bystanders.
Free instrument cluster panel software update.
Specifically affects vehicles previously repaired under recall 20V263.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
