30 Vehicles Affected

Recall Date: Aug 11, 2021

Safety Issue:

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2015-2020 Transit vehicles. An incorrect driveshaft torsional damper service kit may have been installed, which can allow the damper shield to contact the parking brake cable, possibly resulting in parking brake failure.

Potential Risk:

Parking brake failure can result in unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash.

FREE Recall Solution:

Dealers will replace the passenger side parking brake cable with a cable that provides sufficient clearance to the damper shield, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters were mailed on September 24, 2021. Owner notification letters were mailed on March 14, 2022. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.

Ford Motor Company

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:

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION

Potential Consequences:

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.
