Category: Light Vehicle · Supplier: Ford Motor Company of Australia Limited
Recall date: 21 December 2016
There is a possibility that an intermittent Output Shaft Speed Sensor failure may result in an unintended downshift into first gear.
If the failure occurs while the vehicle is in use, it could cause an abrupt wheel speed reduction. This may cause the rear tyres to slide or lock up until the vehicle speed slows, which could result in a loss of vehicle control.
Until the Safety Recall Service is completed it is recommended that the vehicle be driven with caution and at moderate speed. Consumers will be contacted by direct mail. Consumers should contact their local Ford dealer to arrange for an inspection and repair. For further information, consumers can contact any authorised Ford dealer or Ford's Customer Relationship Centre on 1800 503 672.
