## What the record says

- **Product**: FORD ESCAPE (2015) - Recall 22V254000
- **Reason**: Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2015 Escape vehicles equipped with 2.0L engines. The bushing that attaches the shifter cable to the transmission may degrade or detach. A damaged or missing bushing may prevent the vehicle from shifting into the intended gear, and cause the vehicle to move in an unexpected direction. Additionally, the vehicle may roll after the driver selects the 'Park' position. Either scenario increases the risk of a crash or injury.
- **Classification**: Not supplied
- **Recalling firm**: Ford Motor Company
