A driveshaft that separates can also cause damage to nearby components, including brake and fuel lines. Note: cutaway chassis models with a 156" or 178" wheelbase are not involved in this recall. Safety risk: a loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, unintended vehicle movement could increase the risk of injury and/or a crash. Corrective actions: ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a ford or lincoln dealer to replace the front driveshaft section and install a universal joint (to replace the flexible coupling).

• Recall 2018216 [Canada]: Electrical
  On certain vehicles equipped with a trailer lighting control module, or that had a trailer lighting control module installed as an aftermarket accessory, water may enter the module and connector, and could cause wiring corrosion and damage to the module. This could result in an electrical short to ground, which could cause an uncommanded seat belt pretensioner deployment, a burning smell and/or an increased risk of fire, even when the vehicle is parked and the ignition is off. This may also cause turn signals to flash rapidly as well as cause a loss of the instrument cluster display, heater and air conditioning controls, and multimedia system (radio, screens, sync). An electrical short could increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will add a drainage hole to the driver’s door stepwell and incorporate a fuse into the vehicle wiring harness. Note: this recall is an expansion of recall 2017-516.

• Recall 2017320 [Canada]: Powertrain
  On certain vans, chassis cabs and cutaway chassis', the driveline operating angle may affect the long term durability of the flexible coupling between the transmission and driveshaft. If the flexible coupling were to crack, it would result in vibration and noise from underneath the vehicle. Continued driving with a cracked flex coupling may cause separation of the driveshaft, resulting in a loss of motive power while driving, or unintended vehicle movement in park without the parking brake applied. In addition, separation of the driveshaft from the transmission can result in damage to surrounding components, including brake and fuel lines. A loss of motive power may increase the risk of a crash, and unintended vehicle movement may result in property damage and/or injury to bystanders. Correction: as an interim remedy, for vehicles with more than 48,000kms, dealers will replace the driveshaft flexible coupling every 48,000kms until the final repair is available. Upon the final remedy being available, dealers will either install a redesigned flexible coupling, modified driveshaft bracket and shield, or revised driveshaft equipped with a universal joint. Note: cutaway chassis’ with a 156" or 178" wheelbase are not involved in this campaign.

This recall is a safety concern as ford describes in their own words: https://ford.Oemdtc.Com/4634/safety-recall-19s38-driveshaft-flexible-coupling-2015-2017-ford-transit "if the coupling fails, the vehicle will not be able to move under its own power and the disconnected driveshaft may impact and damage the brake and fuel lines. Additionally, the separated driveshaft may allow the vehicle to roll if the vehicle is exited when the transmission is in ‘park’ but the parking brake is not applied. These scenarios may increase the risk of a crash or injury." there are no warning lamps to identify there is an issue. The vehicle is available for inspection. Ford is requesting a diagnostic fee to address the issue that should be covered under recall as my vehicle's build date and location fall well within the recall window.
