What owners report
Complaints on the 2020 Ford Transit are dominated by driver's seat problems reported at very low mileage, with many vans affected almost immediately after purchase. A second cluster concerns the automatic transmission, which owners most often describe at higher mileage (roughly 80,000-160,000), where hard or delayed shifts and loss of power led to transmission replacement. Camera, electrical and power-steering complaints appear throughout the sample, often at low miles.
- Seats
Driver's seat cushion collapses or sags
- 22 complaints (26%)
- typically at 2.1 yrs old
- filed 2023
Owners of several vans describe the driver's seat cushion sinking into the springs until it becomes uncomfortable or, in some accounts, the seat frame gives way so the driver cannot see over the wheel or reach the pedals. Some report the seat movement or collapse damages the wiring and airbag connectors under the seat, setting off the airbag warning light, and that a swivel seat can chafe the wire bundle. Complaints say dealers often declined repair as out of warranty or reported parts unavailable, while some owners bought replacement cushions or seat tracks themselves. Reported at very low mileage, often within the first few thousand miles and sometimes within months of purchase.
What to check: Sit in the driver's seat and press down to check for sagging or a sunken cushion, and look under the seat for chafed or taped wiring. Ask whether the seat cushion or track has been replaced.

“seat collapse. Available to be inspected. Unable to see over wheel or reach the acceleration and break pedals. Airbag light comes on due to the collapsed seat either cutting the airbag electrical cable, or puncturing the airbag itself. Vehicle has only been inspected by our fleet manager, our in house mechanic, and the dealership. No prior warning(s) before the failures.”

NHTSA complaint #11522886, filed 2023-05 - Transmission and drivetrain
Harsh or delayed shifts, transmission failure
- 12 complaints (14%)
- median 91,000 mi at 4.0 yrs old (6 state mileage, few)
- 1 mention a crash, fire or injury
- filed 2021–2026
Owners describe delayed or harsh shifting, hesitation when pulling away, slipping on the highway, and in some cases sudden loss of power or a van that would not move in any gear. Complaints say dealers diagnosed internal transmission failure and recommended replacement, and in one account a dealer cited a service bulletin for the symptom. A few owners mention fluid leaks found at the dealer without visible evidence of a leak. Mostly reported between roughly 30,000 and 160,000 miles, with several accounts in the 80,000-90,000 mile range.
Recall 21V9780006 related service bulletins
What to check: Test drive from a stop and at highway speed, feeling for delayed or hard shifts, and ask whether the transmission fluid has been serviced. Have a shop scan for stored gear-ratio codes before buying.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“We started experiencing slight transmission shifting issues in early-mid 2024. More issues in December 2024/January 2025 - this time it was really hard and jerky shifting. It was sporadic at this time, but it was often. My wife and I have 7 children. This vehicle is usually driven by my wife to pick up kids from school, run errands, etc. At the beginning of March 2025, my wife was merging onto the highway, but it didn't want to shift. She stated that a big rig was coming behind her and the van was not shifting and picking up speed. …”

Started making light grinding noise while shifting gears. After cooling, van would shift gears but not move, including reverse. Took to dealership and they said van had a transmission leak. Van did not have any evidence of leakage, from puddles under vehicle to any trail of fluid or mess when inspecting under vehicle. Had the van for less than 30 days and they say 10 quarts of oil leaked! …”

- 1 mention a crash, fire or injury
- filed 2021–2025
Owners report the backup camera intermittently showing a blue or static screen, a 'camera unavailable' message, or failing entirely, sometimes after checking for a software update and sometimes permanently. Some complaints describe the camera being replaced or a dealer unable to duplicate the fault, and one owner described reversing into a pole after a distorted image. Several vans had recall work for the camera not completed because parts were on backorder. Reported from a few thousand miles up to around 28,000 miles, usually with no particular weather or driving condition noted.
Recall 20V575000Recall 25V4420001 related service bulletin
What to check: Ask whether the rearview camera recall (20V575000) or related programs have been completed for this van, and check that the camera works in reverse before purchase.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“Mid 2023 the backup camera would sporadically stop working and produce a blue screen and a message camera is unavailable contact your dealership . I would check for an update and then it would start working. This has happened 8 times since 2023- 2024, in August 2024 it has quit working completely.”
NHTSA complaint #11656962, filed 2025-04“Rear camera (back up camera) will stop working. Also, rear (right-side) and side sliding door door open alert false indicates, beeps horn while driving but is sporadic.”
NHTSA complaint #11509288, filed 2023-02 - Steering
Intermittent loss of power steering assist
- 6 complaints (7%)
- median 23,814 mi at 1.2 yrs old (2 state mileage, few)
- filed 2020–2026
Owners describe the steering suddenly becoming very heavy or nearly locked, sometimes right after starting the engine and sometimes while driving, and in some cases returning after the van is restarted. Complaints mention a steering assist warning in the information display and a stored diagnostic code, and one owner reported the dealer keeping the van for inspection. Another complaint describes a steady pull to the right and vibration at highway speed. Reported from very low mileage up to around 46,000 miles, often on initial start-up.
What to check: On a cold start, check that the steering feels normal and no steering assist warning appears. Ask whether the power steering control module software update described in a service bulletin has been applied.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“While riding through a Walmart parking lot the power steering went out. I managed to manuever to a nearby Ford service station. While there awaiting service I read online that this make and model looses power steering. The Blog suggested turning off the vehicle and restarting it. I went back to my vehicle and started it and the power steering had returned. I was 5.5 hours away from home but when I got home I parked it until I could get it to the dealership. …”
NHTSA complaint #11427754, filed 2021-08“Since purchasing the van, the steering wheel has occasionally felt sluggish and heavier to turn at certain times than others. The final time it was nearly impossible to turn and felt almost locked, which is obviously a huge safety issue. This has occurred while starting the engine at random times and impedes driving and overall safety as it seems to come and go as an issue. This has occurred both while stationary and while in motion.”
NHTSA complaint #11384353, filed 2020-12, 1,000 miles - Brakes
Rear brakes dragging, overheating or locking
- 5 complaints (6%)
- median 33,000 mi at 5.7 yrs old (1 states mileage, few)
- filed 2024–2026
A fleet owner reports repeated rear brake trouble across several vans, describing calipers that do not retract and overheat until the rear brakes seize, leaving a driver stopped on the roadside. Another complaint describes the ABS warning light staying on, the ABS activating during a hard right turn without brake input, and brake lights staying lit. Complaints say dealers inspected the vans and the issue was reproduced. Reported from around 33,000 miles upward, with several accounts involving vans used in year-round fleet service.
What to check: After a test drive, feel each rear wheel for unusual heat or drag, check for a lit ABS or brake warning light, and ask for recent brake service records.

“The bolts holding the axle together to the driveshaft failed on the rear right wheel, nearly causing an accident but fortunately it was 6am with little traffic on the interstate. The axle came out and destroyed our driveshaft, requiring a full replacement. We have had the vehicle serviced regularly since our purchase.”
NHTSA complaint #11744442, filed 2026-06“We own a fleet of these vans and 5 out of the last 7 purchased from 2020-2023 have had total rear brake system failure. The calipers are not retracting and are overheating and freezing up the rear brake system. In some cases leaving our employee(s) stranded on the side of the road in the middle of winter storm waiting to get towed putting their safety at risk. The problem has been reproduced as it has happened on 5 of the last 7 vehicles we purchased. …”
NHTSA complaint #11595368, filed 2024-06
Buying note. Check the driver's seat carefully and confirm whether any recall or service program work on the rearview camera and driveshaft has been completed, since owners report these early and often. A thorough transmission test drive and a scan for stored codes is worthwhile, as transmission complaints tend to appear at higher mileage.
