Transmission Failure And Loss of Drive Power

NHTSA #19V432000 · Power Train — Clutch Assembly · NHTSA notice

Reported June 10, 2019 · Ford Motor Company

Potentially affected: 3,868 vehicles

Repair completion: 53.49% (latest rate the manufacturer reported to NHTSA; dataset updated November 3, 2026)

Ford campaign 19S20 · Owners notified August 19, 2019 · Vehicles built May 11, 2009 – October 12, 2015 (per NHTSA) · Recall influenced by NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation

Defect description

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2009-2016 Ford Econoline vehicles equipped with a 5R110W transmission, 5.4L engine, and a school bus or ambulance preparation package. A weld within the coast clutch may fail, causing an unexpected loss of drive power.

Safety consequence

A sudden loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash. Transferring occupants of a disabled school bus or ambulance to another vehicle increases their risk of injury.

Manufacturer remedy

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the single-engaging coast one-way clutch with a new dual-engaging one-way clutch, free of charge. The recall began August 19, 2019. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 19S20.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
