Automaker Ford is recalling more than 2.9 million vehicles due to their potential to roll away while in park.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a bushing that attaches the shifter cable to the transmission could degrade or detach.If the car is shifted into park, the vehicle could be in a different gear, causing it to roll unexpectedly. According to CNN, a similar problem occurred in the 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee that caused the 2016 death of actor Anton Yelchin.
