21S54/21V978
Description
On your vehicle, the mounting bolts that connect the rear driveshaft to the transmission transfer case may become loose
Safety Risk
Loose mounting bolts may cause rear driveshaft separation from the transfer case. This separation will result in loss of motive power, or unintended vehicle movement in park without the parking brake being applied.
Remedy
Ford Motor Company has authorized your dealer to inspect the mounting bolts that connect the rear driveshaft to the transmission transfer case. If one or more bolts are loose, the dealer is to replace the driveshaft, all driveshaft bolts, center bearing bracket bolts, driveshaft to rear axle companion flange bolts, transfer case flange kit, and transfer case seal. On vehicles that do not have a loose bolt, the dealer will replace all driveshaft bolts at the transfer case interface free of charge parts and labor.
