I am the owner of a 2000 Navigator. I bought it from a private owner about a year and a half ago. When go to change gears, the vehicle sometimes won't go into gear or if I put it in park, it sometimes won't go. Then I tried to use my emergency brake when parking, which is what I had to resort to due to the vehicle not staying in gear, it also would not work. I went to get my vehicle safety inspection and of course it did not pass. So that prompted my online research as to how to fix the problem. Then I came across the recall in formation for this vehicle and similar models and I see that some recalls were made, but not for my vehicle's year. I was wondering if my vehicle's year model should be included in some of the other recalls because I have the exact same problem but my vehicle is a 2000 and the recall was for a 1998 and so on. Thank you.
