“This van had a drive shaft recall before we get the service it broke and caused lots of damages include transmission. It took more than 3 months during that time we paid the rent car and Ford said it will reimburse it but when we claim it, Ford refused pay for it and later did not respond our email or phone call.”

“On or about 4/8/2020 my ambulette with a passenger completely stalled. It was towed to our nys DOT shop in westbury that regulates ambulettes. This vehicle , a 2015 Ford Transit 150 is supposed to circulate transmission fluid coming from transmission and coolant from the radiator at the same time. Coolant circulation is supposed to cool transmission fluid without being mixed. When the service is compromised and mixes together, it will contaminate both fluids-coolant in the transmission.transmission fluid,cooling system(radiator and thermostat). …”

“On an entrance ramp to a highway I heard a loud explosion followed by what sounded like heavy rain. I immediately pulled over and discovered that small flip-out window on the passenger side cargo door had shattered into a million pieces that were inside and outside the vehicle. There was no evidence that this damage was caused by anything hitting it. For this reason my theory is that this was caused by some internal stress caused by the design or material. I was thankful that there were no passengers that may have been injured by the flying glass. …”

“I have a 2015 Ford Transit 15 passenger vehicle that was purchased in nov 2016 with 20,000 miles. April 2019 the driveshaft flexible coupling was replaced under warranty. In july 2019 we began hearing a noticeable vibration / subwoofer drone / hum in the vehicle.the drone doesn't happen at a specific speed but is prevalent when we're running 50-70 MPH and between 2000 and 2500 RPM. This drone sound is not consistent but now vibrates the entire cabin when it does appear. I can stop the sound by pulling foot off the gas pedal. However it just re-appears at a later time. …”

“This vehicle, along with explorers and Transit connects, has day running lights (drls) that are bright enough to act as headlights. In addition, the gauge cluster is always illuminated, which doesn't alert the driver to the fact that the taillights are off, decreasing nighttime visibility. The older gauge clusters were better. This is not a specific incident, but a design flaw.”
