2016 Ford Transit Engine

I am a victim of odometer tampering, the odometer has been rolled back and I traded my truck for it under the premise that it had 57000 miles. I am currently taking the perpetrator to civil court to recuperate the money that is owed me by the low mileage fraud, in Cincinnati OH, Hamilton County. I would like to see this scum prosecuted because of this horrible crime. I have talked to the local police but they did nothing at all about it and said they couldn’t, I was trying to look at other outlets and hopefully I have found the right one because it seems like nobody can do anything about it and even though a crime happened people want to sweep it under the rug, I want justice and to see this scum go to jail.

I was driving for approximately 6 hours in the rain. When I returned to my home location and filled my vehicle,I only got 14 mpg. Nirmally 17-19mpg. So I figured its been a while since Ive changed thecair filter. So I proceeded to change the air filter. It was completeky saturated with water.I am surprised I made it back through the mountanious area w no cell phone connectivety w passengers. I research what I believe is the oroblem The air intake is located directly behind the front grill next to passenger side headlamp. It has a plastic tube (as a air tunnel) that goes into the botton of the air intake bosmx, in which the filter is on to, letting aur to get through to the engine. From the firce of driving, raining and the engine sucking in air. It almost cacumed the rain into as well. The air intake needs to be revised. Befire a engine stall occurs and loss power and control.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Transit. The contact stated while driving 40-45 MPH, the message "High Temperature - Pull Over Safely" was displayed. The contact stated that upon decelerating, the temperature gauge dropped, then started fluctuating from normal to high temperature. The contact was able to drive to the nearby residence. The contact stated while driving to the dealer the following day, the check engine warning light illuminated. The dealer diagnosed that the EGR was fractured. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer informed the contact of Ford Campaign Number: 18M06; which the contact related to the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the campaign had expired. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.

Freeway driving at rush hour, engine light came on suddenly, no other previous warning, with catastrophic engine failure, pull over immediately. I was able to coast to shoulder. No injuries. Could have caused an accident. Van is now at dealer, diagnosis unknown.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Transit. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed in a parking lot, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and diagnosed as an engine stall due to the fuel pump failure. The vehicle was not repaired and remained at the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The failure mileage was approximately 74,000.

While on a road trip with my 6 kids, I had a brake issue with my 2016 Ford Transit. The first time it happened, I was driving about 55 mph, hit the brakes and the engine revved & accelerated. I pumped the brakes, engine stopped revving. Honestly thought I did something wrong. Same thing happened again two days later. I stopped and cleaned the sensors hoping that would resolve the issue. The next day the same thing happened making it hard to stop. I went straight to Ford and had two Ford dealerships tell me the vehicle was fine. Brakes were checked and was told no problems. I asked if it could be a leak in brake booster and was told no. No lights were coming on. I took the van to Les Schwab and was told the same thing. Unsure what to do, my brother came to the rescue and took the van. He started driving it home to California from Colorado. I rented an RV and continued our road trip. 80 miles later, the engine on the van made a loud bang and ceased. No engine lights. My brother said the engine started having acceleration problems so he stopped and checked all of the fluids. Everything was fine and engine was not overheated. But, complete engine failure at 79,000 miles. This was July. Since then, we paid to have a new engine installed. My husband flew out to pick up the van and new engine started having problems. He had to fly back home. Ford has said that the new engine is bad so they are paying for rental car and getting another new engine installed. Still do not have van. It's been three months. My concern is something else is going on...just seems extremely strange. I am still worried about the braking and revving bit and wonder if anyone else has had a similar issue.

Exhaust manifold leaking. According to the Ford dealership at Encinitas California (see attached report by the service dept) my ford transit has a leaking exhaust manifold. Apparently, this is not an uncommon failure with these 3.5 eco-boost engines. It appears to be a design flaw in the bolt pattern which allows the manifold to warp. I noticed this problem with approximately 75,000 miles. The vehicle developed a loud chirping or ringing sound but no warning lights. This leaking and failed exhaust system is allowing noxious gas to build up in the engine compartment and possibly leaking into the passenger compartment.

I HAVE A 5 TRANSIT VANS AND ALL OF THEM ARE GIVING ME CATALYST PROBLEMS , I CAN UNDERSTAND MAYBE ONE VEHICLE WITH A PROBLEM BUT WHEN ALL HAVE THE SAME SYMPTOMS SOMETHING IS NOT WORKING RIGHT,MY TRANSIT 3.5 HAS GONE THROUGH 2 OF THEM ALREADY, THEY HAVE ISSUES WITH THE CATALYST SYSTEM AND IT'S VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX I JUST PAYED $2,500 TO REPLACE THE SECOND ONE ON MY TRANSIT 350 3.5 . THIS HAS TO BE LOOKED AT

THE VAN STALLED WHILE DRIVING AND LOST POWER WHILE CROSSING AN INTERSECTION AT APPROX 25MPH. THE ELECTRONIC PANEL DISPLAYED AND ERROR MESSAGE STATING, "ENGINE FAULT SERVICE NOW". WHEN RESTARTED THE VAN STARTED SHAKING WHEN PRESSING THE EXCELERATOR. VAN WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED WITHOUT ANY ISSUES

WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY THE DASH DINGED AND SAID ENGINE FAULT SERVICE NOW. THE VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATION AND HAD TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER WHILE VEHICLES WERE GOING AROUND HIM. FORD SAYS THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE WHEN A PART GOES BAD SO THE ENGINE DOESN'T GET DAMAGED. THE THROTTLE BODY HAD TO BE REPLACED. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR THE VEHICLE TO LOSE ALL ACCELERATION WHEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WITH NO WARNING. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.
