13- Visual System#2021396
36,496 units affected
Issue: On certain vans, the pivot points for the side mirrors could rust. If this happens, the mirrors could become loose or fall down. Note: This recall only affects vans equipped with short arm, manual fold, power-adjustable outside rearview mirrors. The recall applies to vehicles originally sold or currently registered in areas of heavy road salt usage (Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland & Labrador). Safety Risk: A side mirror that loosens or separates could reduce rear visibility and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the side mirrors.
- Powertrain#2019538
22,960 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the flexible coupling between the transmission and driveshaft may crack over time. If this happens, you may notice vibrations and noise from under the vehicle. If you continue driving with this problem, the driveshaft could separate, resulting in a loss of power to the wheels. If the driveshaft separates, and the parking brake is not used when parked, the vehicle could move suddenly. A driveshaft that separates can also cause damage to nearby components, including brake and fuel lines. Note: Cutaway chassis models with a 156" or 178" wheelbase are not involved in this recall. Safety Risk: A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, unintended vehicle movement could increase the risk of injury and/or a crash. Corrective Actions: Ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to replace the front driveshaft section and install a universal joint (to replace the flexible coupling). Note: Ford does not recommend driving your vehicle if the driveshaft flexible coupling has travelled over 64,000 km.
- Electrical#2018216
753 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with a trailer lighting control module, or that had a trailer lighting control module installed as an aftermarket accessory, water may enter the module and connector, and could cause wiring corrosion and damage to the module. This could result in an electrical short to ground, which could cause an uncommanded seat belt pretensioner deployment, a burning smell and/or an increased risk of fire, even when the vehicle is parked and the ignition is off. This may also cause turn signals to flash rapidly as well as cause a loss of the instrument cluster display, heater and air conditioning controls, and multimedia system (radio, screens, SYNC). An electrical short could increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will add a drainage hole to the driver’s door stepwell and incorporate a fuse into the vehicle wiring harness. Note: This recall is an expansion of recall 2017-516.
- Electrical#2017516
8,361 units affected

Correction: Dealers will add a drainage hole to the driver’s door stepwell and incorporate a fuse into the vehicle wiring harness.
- Powertrain#2017320
26,183 units affected
On certain vans, chassis cabs and cutaway chassis', the driveline operating angle may affect the long term durability of the flexible coupling between the transmission and driveshaft. If the flexible coupling were to crack, it would result in vibration and noise from underneath the vehicle. Continued driving with a cracked flex coupling may cause separation of the driveshaft, resulting in a loss of motive power while driving, or unintended vehicle movement in Park without the parking brake applied. In addition, separation of the driveshaft from the transmission can result in damage to surrounding components, including brake and fuel lines. A loss of motive power may increase the risk of a crash, and unintended vehicle movement may result in property damage and/or injury to bystanders. Correction: As an interim remedy, for vehicles with more than 48,000kms, dealers will replace the driveshaft flexible coupling every 48,000kms until the final repair is available. Upon the final remedy being available, dealers will either install a redesigned flexible coupling, modified driveshaft bracket and shield, or revised driveshaft equipped with a universal joint. Note: Cutaway chassis’ with a 156" or 178" wheelbase are not involved in this campaign.
- Structure#2017179
120 units affected
On certain cargo trucks built on a Ford Transit 350 chassis, the brackets securing the cargo body to the chassis may crack. As a result, the cargo box may not be secured to the chassis and could shift or separate during operation, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Revised brackets will be installed.
- Fuel System#2016412
457 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with a 3.2L diesel engine, defects in the high pressure fuel pump could result in excessive wear, leading to metallic wear particles. These particles could clog fuel volume control valves and/or fuel injectors, potentially resulting in the engine stalling or failing to start. A loss of motive power could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel injection pump and inspect the fuel system for metallic contamination. If metallic contamination is present, dealers will also clean/flush the fuel system and replace the fuel filter and fuel injectors.
- Airbag#2016137
839 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with side curtain airbags, the side curtain airbag assemblies may not have been manufactured and installed with the intended design fold orientation. If the side curtain airbag fold is not oriented properly, it could prevent the airbag from deploying as intended. A side curtain airbag that does not deploy as intended during a crash (where side curtain airbag deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will inspect the side curtain air bags on both sides of the vehicle, and will re-orient them if required.
- Seats And Restraints#2016090
1,781 units affected
A heavy impact to the top of a rear seat belt buckle (high end load) may result in damage causing the buckle cover to displace downward and/or rotate relative to the latch mechanism. If a rear seat belt buckle is damaged, the buckle cover may interfere with the normal function of the buckle, which may ultimately prevent the buckle tongue from becoming latched or potentially remaining latched, increasing the risk of injury in a crash or other emergency situations. Correction: Owners will be provided instructions to inspect their rear passenger seat belt buckles, or alternatively dealers will provide this inspection if customers have questions or concerns. When repair parts become available, owners will be notified to take their vehicle to a dealer to have the rear passenger seat belt buckles repaired or replaced, as required.
- Powertrain#2015608
95 units affected
Certain vehicles equipped with dual rear wheels may have been manufactured with defective rear drive axle shafts. Under certain conditions, these axles could fracture and break without warning. This could result in a loss of motive power or cause unintended vehicle movement when the transmission shift lever is placed in the Park position, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace both rear axle shafts.
- Fuel System#2014500
3 units affected
On certain long wheel base Jumbo Van vehicles equipped with a diesel engine, the fuel filter mounting bracket may detach from the frame crossmember, causing a knocking noise. This could limit fuel supply to the engine, potentially resulting in reduced power, engine stalling and inability to restart the engine after a stall. These issues could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the fuel filter attachment point and install a reinforcement plate.
- Brakes#2014334
29 units affected
On certain vehicles, leaks could develop where the rear brake hoses connect to the rear calipers. This would cause a loss of brake fluid and illuminate the brake warning lamp in the instrument panel. If operated in this condition, brake system function could be affected, potentially increasing stopping distances and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the rear caliper to hose joint.
- Structure#2014333
18 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with windowless sliding doors, reinforcing epoxy may have been omitted from the sliding doors at time of assembly. This could increase the likelihood of the doors unlatching during a side impact, which could increase the risk of injury to unbelted occupants. Correction: Dealers will install a door reinforcement plate.
