Description of the problem | After stopping to park the car in a street parking spot (the vehicle was stationary), i placed the gear shifter in park, however the vehicle went into reverse. The shifter cable bushing degraded and fell off the cable which detached the cable from the transmission. I know that other ford vehicles have the same issue, but there is no recall issued for ford edge vehicles even though they have the same problem. The dealership replaced the whole cable (claimed that the bushing is part of the cable) and charged me $700. The dealership invoice and a couple of pictures of the missing bushing are attached as a pdf document. |
