NHTSA Complaint #11523294 — 2010 FORD TRANSIT CONNECT

The car can roll/move after the automatic transmission has been put in PARK. There are no warnings or indication of a problem and the ignition key can be removed after the transmission is in PARK. But the car can roll away and injure people or damage property if the emergency brake is not engaged. The transmission shift linkage has been examined and it appears to be fine, with no slop or mis-adjustment, and the linkage bushing (that is the subject of a recall of several other Fords of other model years) seems to be fine and not deteriorated. So, it's not the same problematic part but the vehicle roll away risk and danger to people and property is the same. This problem happens every time the vehicle is put in PARK and been independently verified by the vehicle service maintenance department of Somerset County of the State of New Jersey. This problem has been reported to Ford Motor Company and is documented as Case # CAS42939534.
