5 common questions answered
NHTSA recall information describes risks involving fuel-system blockage and engine stalling, unlatched seat belts, pretensioners or side curtain airbags that may not work as intended, degraded stability control, doors that may open, and driveshaft failures that can cause loss of power or vehicle roll. Trailer tow wiring can create fire or crash hazards, while modified seats and wheelchair lifts can increase injury risk. A panoramic roof may leak or separate. Waiting leaves these risks unresolved, so check your VIN and schedule service promptly, even if your 2016 Ford Transit Connect appears to operate normally.
