(WDNews) – Ford is recalling several of its popular vehicles due to a transmission issue that could cause them to unexpectedly move forward—even when in reverse or neutral.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the problem is linked to a potentially faulty transmission valve body that may have been machined incorrectly. That flaw can cause the reverse gear to fail or lead to unintended forward movement, creating a serious safety risk.
The recall affects a range of 2024 and 2025 models, including:
-
Ford F-150 (2024–2025)
-
Ford Bronco (2024–2025)
-
Ford Ranger (2024)
-
Ford Mustang (2025)
-
Ford Explorer (2025)
-
Lincoln Aviator (2025)
Ford will replace the transmission main control valve body at no cost to the owner. Concerned drivers can contact Ford’s customer service line at 1-866-436-7332 and mention recall number 25S19 for more information.
