Reuters reported that Ford dealers will update the software and inspect and replace any damaged transmission components for free, according to the NHTSA.
The agency said that interim letters notifying owners of potential safety risks will be mailed beginning Aug. 3, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once the remedy is available, the NHTSA said.
The remedy is anticipated in April 2027, the agency said.
