Ford Vietnam is recalling 2,566 Ford Ranger pickups produced between June 2015 and February 2016 and imported to Vietnam from Thailand, the Vietnam Register said on Thursday.

The vehicles slated for recall may have a defect relating to the gearshift cable-retaining clip. The clip may not be securely fastened, which could lead to the gearshift cables making contact with the driveshaft.

Continued contact between the gearshift cables and drive shaft can damage both components. This could result in difficulty in changing gears or loss of drive.

There have been no reported accidents relating to the defect, Ford Vietnam stated.
