“There was a recall for potential engine fire issues. I took the van to for several time to ask about this and was told the vehicle I had was not part of the recall. I eventually sold the van to a friend of mine with about 106,000 miles on it. I also advised him of the recall info and told him Ford said it was not part of the recall.

I just find it heard to believe that every recall Ford has had for the Transit Connect . My vehicle was not involved in any of the recalls.”
