Defect Summary:
ZF Group North America Operations (ZF Group) is recalling certain 9-Speed Automatic Transmissions. The automatic transmission parking pawl may have been contaminated during manufacturing and the park rod may become dislodged or broken. This may prevent the transmission from shifting into the Park position.

Consequence Summary:
The shift indicator may show that the vehicle is in Park but the park lock may not be engaged, allowing the vehicle to roll away unintentionally, increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Summary:
ZF Group has notified the vehicle manufacturers that purchased these transmissions. The vehicle manufacturers that installed these transmissions in their vehicle products will notify the affected vehicle owners and perform a free remedy on those vehicles. Owners may contact their vehicle manufacturer for more information. Owners may contact ZF Group customer service at 1-734-416-6200.
