Transmission Range Sensor

Asked by Guru2X1WJ Feb 25, 2020 at 12:33 PM about the 2016 Ford Explorer XLT

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2016 Ford Explorer that I bought in August. About a month ago it
wouldn't start. I took it to the dealership and they said it was the throttle body
and they replaced it. Here we are a month later and it wouldn't start again.
Took it to the dealership and now they are saying a transmission range
sensor... My questions are... 1. How long are the range sensors supposed to
last (years/miles)? 2. Do they have to drop the transmission to replace it? 3.
Did they replace the wrong part a month ago??
