1 Transmission Fluid Leaking problem

Failure Date: 12/07/2020

Ptu is leaking. The fluid is bad and needs seals installed. I smelled gas and hot motor. Type smell. This happened to another 2015 Ford Explorer owner by friend - it was not discovered as early. This is a hazard to the driver. Sounds like it's an issue for many Explorer owners. Should be recall? would I be reimbursed?.
