30 Vehicles Affected
Recall Date: Aug 11, 2021

NHTSA Campaign: 19V767000 SAFETY RECALL
293.6K Vehicles Affected
Recall Date: Oct 25, 2019
Safety Issue:

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Transit vehicles. This recall includes all full-size Transit vehicles previously recalled under 17V-408 except ones that received mechanical universal joint (u-joint) as a remedy and any 156" or 178" wheelbase Chassis Cab and Cut-Away bodies models. The flexible coupling connecting the transmission to the driveshaft may prematurely fail.

Potential Risk:
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.
FREE Recall Solution:
Ford will notify owners, and as an interim repair, dealers will replace the flexible coupling every 40,000 miles until the final remedy is available. The final remedy will consist of installation of a driveshaft front section equipped with a mechanical u-joint in place of the flexible coupling. These repairs will be made free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on April 1, 2020. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 19S38.

Defect Description:

STRUCTURE:BODY

Potential Consequences:

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.
