Per ford recall 18s20 7/18/2018, the bushing that attaches the shifter cable to the transmission detached from the transmission. the degraded shifter cable bushing that detached from the transmission allowed the transmission to be in a gear state different than the gear shift position selected by the driver. the condition allowed the driver, me, to move the shift lever to 'park' and remove the ignition key, while the transmission was not in 'park', in this case "neutral", with no warning message or audible chime. while brakes or the parking brake was not applied, this condition resulted in unintended vehicle movement, the vehicle was free wheeling. fortunately this condition did not result in an injury or crash. ford claims that my particular vehicle, (xxxxx), is not cover by ford recall 18s20, and that repairs will not be covered even though the failure happen exactly as stated in the recall language found here https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2018/07/18/ford-issues-two-safety-recalls-in-north-america.html at the time of the failure the vehicle was backing out of a flat residential driveway, front wheels turning left, making the transient to drive forward down a residential street (25mph speed limit). the vehicle was stuck in "neutral", and putting the shift selector in "park" did not stop the vehicle. instead the vehicle rolled forward down the slight incline of the street until stopped using the brakes. the vehicle then need to be held in place by either applying the brakes or using the emergency brake. the ignition could be turned off, and steering locked while the vehicle was in "neutral", essentially free wheeling unless using the brakes. the vehicle engine could be started and emergency brake released without indication or warning that the transmission was in "neutral". parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Update to nhtsa complaint # 11153163. diagnostic on vehicle has been done by auto nation ford in south fort worth texas. it was determined that the intercooler was defective leaking coolant into air intake and into turbo. the same thing that ford has recalls on all the other ecoboost engines to include the 1.0, 1.6, 2.0 and the 3.5. mechanism advised it needs to be replaced or the vehicle could overheat and cause vehicle to burst into flames while driving down road. service writer bret advised auto nation will not repair vehicle until a recall is announced. that it's a customer pay. vehicle has 61,140 miles on it. vehicle overheated on highway in july 2018 and we found a firestone open. firestone ase mechanic tested for leaks and found non. this mechanic advised that the intercooler was more than likely leaking coolant into the intake and was being burned up inside the motor. he advised to watch the coolant level and see if vehicle continues to disappear with no leaks seen. he advised if it continues to disappear take it to a ford house to check because it could catch on fire. coolant continued to disappear so we took it to auto nation ford. i'm assuming this vehicle needs to catch on fire like the other ecoboost tend to do or is there a possibility for someone to be procative before a tragedy. this vehicle had 56,300 miles on it when it was at firestone. well under the power train warranty but it appears auto nation does not want to be proactive. the overheating issue is documented on firestone customer invoice # 082399 on 7/29/2018. firestone store #351338 san marcos tx.

July 29 2018 driving north on i35 near san marcus texas. vehicle overheated and went into limp mode. made it to firestone store. ase certified tech. diagnosed and found no leaks and determined that anti-freeze was more than likely being dumped into turbo which may possibly cause engine fire like the ecoboost 1.0, 1.6, 2.5 and 3.5 ecoboost has done and has been recalled. also found that air filter was full of anti-freeze. vehicle is currently at auto nation ford in south ft worth waiting for diagnostic after thanksgiving. i'm afraid to let my wife drive the car not knowing if it's going to burst into flames. can you please let me know if a recall is soon coming on the 1.5 ecoboost. thanks for your time, jeremy
