ALL REAR WHEEL DRIVE (RWD) VEHICLES WITH AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSIONS:
• Place the transmission in N (Neutral).
• Maximum speed is 56 km/h (35 mph).
• Maximum distance is 80 km (50 miles).
If a distance of 80 km (50 miles) or a speed of 56 km/h (35 mph)
must be exceeded, you must disconnect the driveshaft. Ford
recommends the driveshaft be removed/installed only by a
qualified technician. Improper removal/installation of the
driveshaft can cause transmission fluid loss, damage to the
driveshaft and internal transmission components.
