Wasn't Ford and GM in some kind of partnership with this transmission?
If so, I bet I can guess who made the case.... and who made the gears!

And I wonder if this will affect GM vehicles as well?

It's a clip on one, and a roll pin that locks the trans in park. Wouldn't be an issue if everyone used their parking brake.

I ran my vin through the ford recall checker and it did not come back as applicable to mine. I guess it’s not all the 2018s.

Isn’t this at least the third safety recall for the 2018 Expedtion?

Why can’t Ford get it right on a new vehicle?

It also wouldn’t be an issue if the vehicles were built right the first time.

They haven't in 115 years, but one could dream!

I hope everyone has to deal with this crap. Another reason to stick with 16-17 Ex. Total redesign and they still can’t get shit right

Ford lead engineering on the ten speed, GM on the 9 speed. Can’t blame this one on GM lol.
