Defect:
Ford motor company (ford) is recalling certain model year 2015 f-250, f-350, f-450, and f-550 super duty trucks manufactured september 13, 2013, through march 28, 2014, and equipped with 6.2l gasoline or 6.7l diesel engines and 6r140 transmissions. an error with the transmission control software may be such that while shifting from "park" to "drive" the vehicle may display "drive" but possibly engage "reverse" for 1.5 seconds before engaging "drive." therefore, the vehicles do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) number 102, "transmission shift lever sequence, starter interlock, and transmission braking effect."
Consequence:
If the vehicle is in "reverse" while the while the gear selection shows "drive," unexpected movement could occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
