• Recall 2021509 [Canada]: Brakes
  Issue: this recall affects a small number of vehicles equipped with dual rear wheels that were repaired with an incorrect driveshaft torsional damper service kit. As a result, there may not be enough clearance for the parking brake cable, and it could become damaged. If this happens, you may not be able to set the parking brake, and the vehicle could roll away. Safety risk: a parked vehicle that moves unexpectedly could increase the risk of an injury or a crash. Corrective actions: ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the passenger side parking brake cable with one that provides clearance to the driveshaft torsional damper shield.

• Recall 2021396 [Canada]: Visual system
  Issue: on certain vans, the pivot points for the side mirrors could rust. If this happens, the mirrors could become loose or fall down. Note: this recall only affects vans equipped with short arm, manual fold, power-adjustable outside rearview mirrors. The recall applies to vehicles originally sold or currently registered in areas of heavy road salt usage (ontario, quebec, new brunswick, nova scotia, prince edward island, and newfoundland & labrador). Safety risk: a side mirror that loosens or separates could reduce rear visibility and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective actions: ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the side mirrors.

• Recall 2019538 [Canada]: Powertrain
  Issue: on certain vehicles, the flexible coupling between the transmission and driveshaft may crack over time. If this happens, you may notice vibrations and noise from under the vehicle. If you continue driving with this problem, the driveshaft could separate, resulting in a loss of power to the wheels. If the driveshaft separates, and the parking brake is not used when parked, the vehicle could move suddenly. 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). Note: ford does not recommend driving your vehicle if the driveshaft flexible coupling has travelled over 64,000 km.

• 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 2017516 [Canada]: Electrical
  On certain vehicles equipped with a trailer lighting control module, 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.

• 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.

• Recall 2016432 [Canada]: Structure
  On certain vehicles, the pawl spring tab in the side door latch could break. This condition typically will prevent the door from latching. In certain situations where the door is able to be closed, the door may be partially latched and could unlatch while driving. This could increase the risk of injury to a vehicle occupant seated next to the door, or result in damage to property. Correction: if a door will not latch, dealers will replace all four door latches with a more robust part. Note: a door that is partially latched can cause the courtesy light to remain on, set a door ajar message in the instrument cluster and sound a door ajar chime to alert the driver that there is a door latch problem.

• Recall 2016412 [Canada]: Fuel supply
  On certain vehicles equipped with a 3.2l diesel engine, defects in the high pressure fuel pump could result in excessive wear, leading to metallic wear particles. These particles could clog fuel volume control valves and/or fuel injectors, potentially resulting in the engine stalling or failing to start. A loss of motive power could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will replace the fuel injection pump and inspect the fuel system for metallic contamination. If metallic contamination is present, dealers will also clean/flush the fuel system and replace the fuel filter and fuel injectors.

• Recall 2016137 [Canada]: Airbag
  On certain vehicles equipped with side curtain airbags, the side curtain airbag assemblies may not have been manufactured and installed with the intended design fold orientation. If the side curtain airbag fold is not oriented properly, it could prevent the airbag from deploying as intended. A side curtain airbag that does not deploy as intended during a crash (where side curtain airbag deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants. Correction: dealers will inspect the side curtain air bags on both sides of the vehicle, and will re-orient them if required.

• Recall 2016090 [Canada]: Seats and restraints
  A heavy impact to the top of a rear seat belt buckle (high end load) may result in damage causing the buckle cover to displace downward and/or rotate relative to the latch mechanism. If a rear seat belt buckle is damaged, the buckle cover may interfere with the normal function of the buckle, which may ultimately prevent the buckle tongue from becoming latched or potentially remaining latched, increasing the risk of injury in a crash or other emergency situations. Correction: owners will be provided instructions to inspect their rear passenger seat belt buckles, or alternatively dealers will provide this inspection if customers have questions or concerns. When repair parts become available, owners will be notified to take their vehicle to a dealer to have the rear passenger seat belt buckles repaired or replaced, as required.

Engine dies without warning. Stalled in the middle of traffic, luckily this did not result in an accident. This has happened twice in the span of one month. April 25th 2021 and may 14th 2021. Ford dealer (ford of montebello) could not figure out why it does this (it has been doing this intermittently since the vehicle was purchased new in 2016. It has done this in the past. I am taking the vehicle back to dealer (again) to see if they can figure it out this time around. Scan tool produces no engine fault codes. Vehicle drives perfectly fine after each incident.

I was notified for a **recall** on the drive shaft sometime early this year ( feb / march 2021)... I have about 24,000 miles on the van. I also reported humming noise after reaching 35 to 40 mph... And then more noise ( humming noise ) after reaching 65 mph on the expressway. I took my van to northgate ford, where i purchased new. They said they had the parts ordered etc. I left the van there for several days...Then i was notified that they put on the new replacement driveshaft,,,, assuming it was correct and balanced.... The service manager notified me that the replacement driveshaft installed was not balanced and was causing all kinds of vibration problems / issues... Steering wheel, driving, etc.... Upon taking the van back several times.... And getting a new corrected balance driveshaft, installed that. However,,, still more problems,,, humming and vibrations, etc. They looked at the differrencial ,,,, and found that all the bearings were bad,,, had to wait 4 to 6 weeks to get replacements......I told them that anything that spins... And not balanced is causing more vibration problems through out the van,,, engine, transmission, exhaust system, brakes, name it,,, etc. I picked up the van on june 28, 2021.. Note... They gave me an extended warranty until 2024 ( 3 years ) and milage of 75,000 miles... Looks like expecting more major problems, etc..... I still have the **humming noise over 35 mph... And getting louder... I have seen articles about possible exhaust / muffler baffles going bad, etc... Now that they did the recall, etc.. My van is an accident waiting to happen... And with the humming noise... Now all i need to do is lose my hearing... Bull ssssss... Thanks

3/11/2021, took transit to dealer on march 9, 2021,,, for humming coming from radio when turned on, for recall on drive shaft coupling. And additional noise when driving on expressway over 60 mph plus... Goes away when letting off the accelerator and exiting expressway. Dealer had vehicle since 3/9/2021. Told me today they fixed the drive shaft coupling, then they came up with issue on front tires and had to rotate them.. Only 24k on vehicle since new... Now new issue about some sort of rattle with the front end... Etc..And that car pulls to right? And that they cannot fix problem as of today,,, working with ford,, looks liike they want to keep vehicle....Until ?? Fixed???

Possible issue related to same front end problems... When ford ships the transit to dealers,,,assume that vehicle is being tied dowm to delivery carrier flat bed auto carrier,,, in nose down position and with extream tie downs... That when the carrier his the highway, and the vehicles start bouncing, and all the weight is on the front end... Causing all this damage... Front end alignment cannot fix it...

One of the rear seatbelts will not latch, rendering that seat unusable. There is already a recall for this vehicle made at the same assembly plant, assembled during the listed time period, yet my vehicle does not show that it is covered by this recall. The description in that recall matches exactly the problem that i am experiencing. When attempting to call ford motor company, multiple attempts resulted in being hung up on despite this ocurring during their listed business hours.

The driveline broker from it's holding mount while driving and tangled up the fuel line and brake lines going to the rear of the van. Making the van lose power and not be able to be driven anymore. This happened while driving on the freeway. This is extremely dangerous. Also they have a recall on the rear flex joint which the ford dealership has recognized but are refusing to pay for the total repair. How is that fair? It is ford's design flaw that made this happen.

The overall noise level while driving is way above normal. Humming sound while driving at 40 to 50 mph plus. The **decibel** level is high. Noise coming through all the doors and door seals, the floor, etc., noise from the tires. I measured the decibel levels on the local expressway doing 65 to 70 mph. The decibel level at the *dog house* was running between 75 and 80 decibels. I have been trying to put additional self sticking door seals on all doors, 100% around, complete, etc. This has been happening for the past several years. Shortly after i bought the vehicle.

The vehicle has had the ford's final fix for 17v408000. I periodically inspect the flexible coupling and during the inspection today i observed a crack in the flexible coupling.

And have bought 4 of these vehicles regretfully we are so overwhelmed with all the issues they have had , a number of major issues like speed sensors going bad throttle body have been replaced transmission replacement with only 60,000 driven... Loss of power while on the road you name it. Currently have 2 of the vehicles at the dealership waiting on transmissions we have contacted ford for some sort of assistance , we are losing money by having our vehicles sit at the dealership waiting to get serviced all the time, is one issue after another its gotten to the point that we cross our fingers everyday hoping for our drivers to make it back with no issues and always thinking where is the next van going to break down and how we are going to deal with it. Very frustrating having to deal with this everyday headache.

When i collided with a ford truck all my air bags deployed as they should, i could not move without intense pain in my lower back so i sat in place until removed by ems. After partial recovery i examined the vehicle and saw that the seat belt anchor bolt over my shoulder had bulled out of the pillar behind my seat (not the floor). I was on a city street moving at about 45 mph. A truck turned in front of me and we collided head to head. Damage on my vehicle was primarily on the front drivers side.

If you opened either front window while driving, hot air would blow from under the front passenger seat at a high volume on the back of the front passengers legs. The van was taken to the dealer who stated they could duplicate the problem, but said that this was normal. I looked under the seat and saw a @3"x 4" oval hole in the floor and i could see the ground. Ford had not installed the plug that is supposed to be in that hole. That hole is directly above a heat shield and the exhaust pipe and there is also a connection at that location on the pipe. After i discovered the hole, i returned to the dealer, who said that there was supposed to be a plug installed there, and they ordered the part(s). After a recent 12 hour trip in this vehicle family members had complained of headaches, and a couple complained of nausea and vomited. Although on that trip we had the windows closed and the air conditioning on, i wonder if we were actually suffering from being exposed to exhaust fumes.

Took it to have the front wheel balance checked and each wheel has +2 oz (06-08-17 1025 miles) the wheel balance fixed the steering wheel vibration problem. Then i noticed unsafe handling characteristics, unsafe swaying and possible loss of control when affected by the smallest amount of wind, passing larger vehicles and road conditions. Not safe to drive over 55 mph on the highway due to excessive swaying that could lead to loss of control. Had ford dealer confirm that there is no mechanical problem. It is not a intermittent problem but rather a problem that occurs every time it is driven in the above conditions. It is a problem that became evident right after taking possession of the vehicle and fixing the wheel balance issue.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 ford transit. When the vehicle was taken to the sunland ford dealer for inspection, the dealer noticed that the drive line coupler was fractured. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to another dealer (shattuck's automotive) where the drive line coupler was replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact emailed the manufacturer to notify them of the failure. The failure mileage was 92,410.

After arriving home in our 2016 ford transit van, we parked in our driveway and placed the transmission into the park position and set the emergency brake. Our family opened the doors and proceeded to exit the vehicle. Our four year old son, however, had unbuckled and twisted around in his seat such that he became trapped in his seat belt. The more he struggled to get free the more it ratcheted tight... To the point that he couldn't breath. Despite us trying everything to free him, the seat belt would not release him. Fearing that he was in real medical danger, i cut him free thereby rendering that seat belt unusable. I am concerned that the seat belts are defective in that they failed to release properly when the van was placed in park and the doors were opened.

Tl* the contact owned a 2016 ford transit. While driving approximately 15 mph, the contact heard a banging sound and the vehicle pulled to the right. The contact had to force the vehicle to the left to avoid striking two parked vehicles. The vehicle traveled approximately 60 yards and came to a stop. In addition, the brakes failed to operate. The contact exited the vehicle and noticed that the passenger side wheel collapsed and was under the vehicle. A police report was filed and there were no injuries. The manufacturer was notified and transferred the contact to nhtsa for further assistance. The vehicle was destroyed. The approximate failure mileage was 353.

Flex coupling between transmission and drive shaft routinely fails between 30,000 - 35,000 miles. This can create a dangerous situation where the drive shaft could be forced into the passenger compartment when it comes into contact with the road. Additionally, the failure of the flex coupling could cause loss of control of the vehicle. There are numerous reports of these failures on ford vehicle forums as well as the failure that i have personally experienced. After reading of the numerous failures, i inspected the flex coupling on my vehicle at 30,000 miles and found that the flex coupling had visible cracks. A failure of a drive line component, which could cause great bodily harm, at 30,000 miles, is unacceptable in a modern vehicle.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 ford transit. The contact stated that the driver was driving at 30 mph when the vehicle suddenly stalled.

The failure mileage was 25,000.

We purchased 14 ford transit vans from the u.S. Four of the 14 are not in driving condition now due to a problem losing speed [more details for each vehicle are needed]. The fault in all of them shows code P2111. The vins are: [xxx] broken in jan/feb 2017 with less than 4500km; [xxx] broken in march 2017 with less than 5200km ; [xxx] broken in august 2017 with less than 3000km ; [xxx] broken in november 2017 with less than 4600km (broken down in the motorcade for potus visit!). At this rate, we expect that our entire fleet of large vans which are ford transits to be inoperable. We have received the service from one of local transit dealers in beijing called [xxx] , but it seemed the problem is not included in the "recall notice" from ford . We would greatly appreciate all assistance in repairing or replacing these vehicles as soon as possible. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.S.C. 552(b)(6). *tr

Ford transit is designed to allow the ignition key to be turned off while it's in any gear including while it's in drive on the highway. Turning this key while on the highway will cause the power steering to go out causing a dangerous situation for the driver. My van has turned itself off while i was driving on the highway at 60 miles an hour four times because my knee touched the key. To make matters worse, the steering column is adjustable but it adjust itself without activating the leever causing the steering column with the ignition key to constantly come closer to my knees. Two ford dealership said that it's working as designed. The design needs to be changed because it's unsafe. *tt *dt consumer stated design flaw with not having an interlock installed.

Dash warning lights came on, van stalled on highway, no forward motion. Van restarted but was in "limp mode". Throttle body issue.

Dash warning lights came on vehicle stalled while driving on city street, vehicle restarted but was in "limp mode". Throttle body failure.

The vehicle will stop accepting accelerator commands randomly. It will refuse to accelerate when the accelerator is depressed. There have been 4 of these vehicles in our fleet do this. Ford is aware of the problem but refuses to do anything about it to accommodate the drivers even going so far as to state it could be weeks before even diagnosing the problem. This is to cover the fact hat they have the throttle bodies needed to repair this complaint on backorder. If on a freeway this is a dangerous failure that would compromise the safety of all on board. The vehicle was in motion at the time of the failure on a city street.

The vehicle's side airbags deployed while parked. The vehicle was parked at a staging area near a demolition range. The airbags deployed due to the sound waves from the blasts.

When driving down the freeway the dash dinged and said engine fault service now. The vehicle lost acceleration and had to coast to the shoulder while vehicles were going around him. Ford says this is a safety feature when a part goes bad so the engine doesn't get damaged. The throttle body had to be replaced. It is very dangerous for the vehicle to lose all acceleration when driving on the freeway with no warning. This should not happen.

Our passenger sliding door does not securely latch/close. Ford refuses to repair it. This defect was reported to them shortly after our purchase. We now drive with a non-secure passenger door.

There are 2 recalls16s06 and 16s13 back from may 2016 and the ford garage cant get parts after a year. One of the recalls is a seat belt issue and we need them fixed before someone gets hert.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 ford transit. While driving approximately 15 mph, a burning odor was present inside the cabin of the vehicle. Whenever the vehicle was driven, the burning odor was present and the contact's breathing became difficult. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was kept for approximately one week. The dealer diagnosed that the exhaust pipe was designed not to extend all the way to the rear bumper. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure occurred for the last ten days. The approximate failure mileage was 16.

The rear left brake pad in the outside(wheel side) reduce running clearance do to misalignment of the caliper housing, producing unsafe excessive heat, poor mpg's, metal to metal noice and expensive mantaining costs ford know the problem and emit tsb 15-0190, but doesn't correct their defect free cost on vehicles over 36,000 miles and doesn't comunicate to the vehicles owners that they are at risk.

Unsafe handling characteristics 2016 ford transit t350 144"wheelbase with the extended length, high roof, single rear wheel. Unsafe swaying and possible loss of control when affected by high winds, passing trucks or uneven road conditions. Not safe to drive over 55 mph on the highway due to excessive swaying that could lead to loss of control. Had ford dealer confirm that there is no mechanical problem and that it was performing as designed. Ford engineers have no fix available at this time. It is not a intermittent problem but rather a problem that occurs every time it is driven in the above conditions. It is a problem that became evident right after taking possession of the vehicle (it did not develop or worsen with time but rather seems to be a design flaw).

Seat belt latch failure. The plastic cover on the seat belt latch receiver detaches from the assembly during normal use. This renders the seat belt unable to latch completely, and renders the seat belt inoperable. The passenger may not be aware that the latch is not secured. This was noted on two separate belts in the rear seats of a rented 12-passenger transit. Based on my interview with the passenger, it most likely occurred by sitting on the lower receiver while having a mobile phone in their back pants pocket. On one occasion, the passenger stated she heard a "crack" or "pop." it should be noted that both occupants were less than 150 lbs. The plastic covers did not completely fail, but were shifted towards the anchor of the lower assembly. This did create a situation where the passenger was unprotected.
