ooops!
Back around 2013, Subaru had the opposite problem with their electronic parking brake mechanism, namely that it could fail to release. As a result, Subaru issued a lifetime warranty, with no mileage limit, on that mechanism. Mine worked w/o problems of any kind for the 11 years that I owned my Outback, but it was comforting to know that I wouldn’t have to pay for repairs if it failed.
In addition to the recall, it would be a good public relations gesture if Ford gave the owners of the affected vehicles a lifetime warranty on that mechanism.

The good news is that they seem to know how the failure occurs and can reduce the possibility of harness shorting.
