Ford Transit: Visual System

Affects Ford Transit · 2015–2020 — about 36K vehicles.

The hazard

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.
