# Recalls that may apply to the 2017 Ford C\-max

A recall listed here may apply to a vehicle of this year, make and model. Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle: check the VIN with the official lookups.

## United States (NHTSA), as of 2026-10-19

- [22V413000](/recalls/nhtsa/22V413000.md), 2022-06-10: POWER TRAIN:SHIFT LINKAGE/CABLE/ROD; POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:GEAR POSITION INDICATION \(PRNDL\). Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2013\-2019 Escape, 2013\-2018 C\-Max, 2013\-2016 Fusion, 2013\-2021 Transit Connect, and  2015\-2018 Edge vehicles.  The bushing that attaches the shifter cable to the transmission may degrade or detach.

## Canada (Transport Canada), as of 2026-10-19

- [2022311](/recalls/tc/2022311.md), 2022-06-13: Powertrain. Issue: On certain vehicles, the shift cable may detach from the transmission. This could cause the transmission not to shift gears when the shifter is moved. As a result, the transmission could be in a different gear than the gear shifter indicates. If a driver attempts to exit the vehicle while the transmission is not in Park, and the parking brake is not applied, the vehicle could move suddenly.  Safety Risk: Sudden and unexpected movement of the vehicle could increase the risk of a crash.  Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the transmission shifter cable bushing and install a protective service cap. Ford advises that you should apply the parking brake each time the vehicle is parked.
