TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD TRANSIT VAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE HAD A TEMPORARY FIX FOR A RECALL REPAIR FOR A DRIVE SHAFT FLEXIBLE COUPLING DONE BACK ON 11/2017. THE REPAIRS WERE DONE AT THE DEALER WYATT JOHNSON FORD 646 THOMPSON LN, NASHVILLE, TN 37204 (615) 244-3615. THE ISSUE RECURRED AGAIN IN 09/2018 WHEN THE PART WAS DISCOVERED TO BE CRACKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANOTHER UNKNOWN DEALER TO DO ANOTHER TEMPORARY REPAIR SINCE THE PERMANENT RECALL REPAIR PARTS WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE YET. THE TEMPORARY REPAIRS WERE COMPLETED. THE ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN YESTERDAY 12/07/20 AND THE DEALER STATED THAT THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE SHOWN TO BE COMPLETED AND THEY WOULD NOT COMPLETE THE REPAIRS AT NO COST. THE PERMANENT REPAIR SOLUTION CAME OUT IN 10/2019 BY THE MANUFACTURER AND THE CONTACT'S CASE WAS CLOSED OUT. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE RECALL WAS COMPLETED AND WOULD NOT ASSIST IN THE PERMANENT REPAIR FOR THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS UNREPAIRED AS A RESULT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,412.

STRIPPED OFF LUG NUTS THAT RETAIN THE TIRES / WHEELS ON THE CAR. THESE SEEM TO BE MADE OF A SOFTER MATERIAL LIKE ALUMINUM. ON MY VEHICLE THEY HAVE BEEN STRIPPED OUT AND RENDERED USELESS. I AM GOING TO HAVE TO SEE IF I CAN HAVE THEM REPLACED. THESE SHOULD BE MADE OF STEEL. THESE ARE OFTEN ON AND OFF THE CAR FOR WHEEL MAINTENANCE AND TIRE REPLACEMENT / ROTATION. YOU SHOULD MAKE THE MANUFACTURERS MAKE THEM OUT OF STEEL, TO BETTER HOLD UP. COULD BE DANGEROUS.

DEALERSHIP (WICKSTROM FORD LINCOLN) IN BARRINGTON IL REFUSES TO REPAID MY VEHICLE SAFETY RECALL (CODE: GEUXOIM). I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT ON 9/22/2020 AND THE DEALERSHIP SENT ME HOME BECAUSE THE PART NEEDS TO BE ORDERED. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WOULD CALL WHEN PARTS ARRIVE. DEALERSHIP NEVER CALLED, I CALLED TWICE ON 11/25/2020 AND LEFT A MESSAGE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT CALLED.

2016 FORD TRANSIT CONNECT. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PANORAMIC ROOF SAFETY RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THAT SHE WAS UNABLE TO GET INTO CONTACT WITH ANYONE TO HAVE THE REPAIRS COMPLETED.*JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD TRANSIT. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V767000 (POWER TRAIN) HOWEVER THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE LOCAL DEALER FULLERTON FORD LOCATED AT 1044 U.S. ROUTE 22 EAST, SOMERVILLE, NJ 08876 WAS CONTACTED AND IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

THE DRIVELINE BROKER FROM IT'S HOLDING MOUNT WHILE DRIVING AND TANGLED UP THE FUEL LINE AND BRAKE LINES GOING TO THE REAR OF THE VAN. MAKING THE VAN LOSE POWER AND NOT BE ABLE TO BE DRIVEN ANYMORE. THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. ALSO THEY HAVE A RECALL ON THE REAR FLEX JOINT WHICH THE FORD DEALERSHIP HAS RECOGNIZED BUT ARE REFUSING TO PAY FOR THE TOTAL REPAIR. HOW IS THAT FAIR? IT IS FORD'S DESIGN FLAW THAT MADE THIS HAPPEN.
