Official summary
Some 2016 mkx vehicles equipped with a 2.7l engine and 6f50/6f55 transmission may exhibit a buzz, hum or moan noise from the engine compartment at 40 kph (25 mph) and above or at engine speeds from 2000 to 3500 rpm. This may be due to the transmission fluid cooler tube. Follow the service procedure steps to correct the condition.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
