## What is wrong

Ford Motor Company \(Ford\) is recalling certain 2017 F\-150 trucks equipped with an eight\-inch productivity screen.  In these vehicles, the instrument cluster may lose power after the initial vehicle start\-up in cold ambient temperatures.  Several gauges, including the transmission gear position indicator, may not illuminate.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicles Safety Standard \(FMVSS\) number 102, "Transmission shift position sequence, starter interlock, and transmission braking effect."


## What can happen

If the transmission gear position indicator fails to illuminate, the driver may be unable to tell the transmission shift position, increasing the risk of a crash or injury from unintended vehicle movement.


## The remedy

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the instrument cluster, free of charge.  The recall began February 20, 2017.  Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1\-866\-436\-7332.  Ford's number for this recall is 17C01.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
