FORDeBay logo MOTOR COMPANY ISSUES THREE SAFETY RECALLS IN NORTH AMERICA

OCT 29, 2019 | DEARBORN, MICH.

DEARBORN, Mich., Oct. 29, 2019 – FordeBay logo Motor Company is issuing three safety recalls in North America.

Safety recall for select 2015-17 FordeBay logo Transit vehicles for driveshaft flexible coupling issue

FordeBay logo Motor Company is issuing a safety recall for select 2015-17 FordeBay logo Transit vehicles. In affected vehicles, the driveshaft flexible coupling may crack with increasing mileage, resulting in driveline noise and vibration. Continued driving with a cracked flexible coupling may cause separation of the driveshaft, resulting in a loss of motive power, or unintended vehicle movement in park without the parking brake applied. In addition, separation of the driveshaft can result in secondary damage to surrounding components, including brake and fuel lines. A driveshaft separation may increase the risk of injury or crash.

FordeBay logo is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition.

This action affects 293,558 vehicles in the United States and federal territories, 22,960 in Canada and 2,744 in Mexico.

Affected vehicles were built at Kansas City Assembly Plant, Jan. 17, 2014, to June 15, 2017.

FordeBay logo does not expect the enhanced driveshaft flexible couplings previously installed per recall 17S15 to deteriorate sufficiently to result in driveline separation before 40,000 miles. For affected vehicles with flexible couplings with more than 40,000 miles, the interim repair will consist of replacing the driveshaft flexible coupling every 40,000 miles until the final repair is available and completed.

Once permanent repair parts become available, dealers will install driveshaft front sections with mechanical U-joints to replace the driveshaft flexible couplings. The FordeBay logo reference number for this recall is 19S38.
