A worn, peeling, loose, or sticking shift knob can be replaced without blaming the transmission when the selector itself still works normally. This version must match the Ford console shifter, connector, finish, and trim restrictions listed below.
The replacement restores the hand-control portion of the shifter. It will not repair a shift-lock solenoid, cable, range sensor, or internal transmission fault.

Compatibility Notice
Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application not shown.
The source details identify Escape 2013-2015 and specific non-leather / non-paddle configurations. Match the part number, underside, connector, release linkage, trim, and transmission before ordering.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why does leather or paddle-shifter equipment matter? A: Ford used different knob and control layouts. The researched listing calls for the matching non-leather configuration and identifies Fusion applications without shift paddles.
Q: Does this repair a shifter that will not leave Park? A: Not necessarily. A shift-lock solenoid, brake switch, cable, wiring, or selector fault must be diagnosed separately.
Q: Which part numbers should match? A: Compare DG9Z-7213-EA, CJ5Z-7213-FA, or a listed interchange plus the underside and electrical connector.
Q: Is the 2016 Escape included? A: The source details specifically identify Escape 2013-2015. A 2016 Escape should be independently verified before ordering.
