If you are not handy go to AutoZone and by the Dorman part and take it to your mechanic to install. If you take it to Ford they will want to replace the entire shift cable assembly and it is expensive!

The screen is slanted and I was brushing my hand on the controls causing the symptoms.

May 2015 12000 mi	Memory seats did not work with Intelligent Access key fobs. TSB 14-0039 was applied to fix the issue with a reprogramming of the Body Control Module (BCM).

Ambient lighting would sometimes change color by itself back to the default color. TSB 14-0175 was performed to update the APIM (Sync Module) to fix this. Trunk was installed with incorrect torsion bars from factory, trunk lid would not stay up. TSB 13-05-18 was performed and correct torsion bars were installed.

Center console not fitting properly - caused by service to the car by another dealer - this dealer did not replace the trim properly.

Jun 2017 73000 mi	One Saturday, my wife started the car and got a zillion lights: Check engine, ABS failure, Advanctrac failure, and others. No brakes at all, pedal went all the way to the floor.

Brakes were unreliable, but the pedal would pump up enough to stop the car. Monday morning the dealer called to say the ABS unit was bad, and possibly another module but they'd need to replace the ABS module to be able to tell. Diagnostics showed 8-10 trouble codes including fatal failure of the ABS module. Luckily, our warranty still had about 2 weeks left, so it was covered. The other suspected module (HCU??) tested OK once the ABS was replaced. Shop time was 2-1/2 days.
