Service bulletins for the 2025 Ford Transit
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

| SSM 54181 | 2025-09-02. Service bulletin. UNKNOWN OR OTHER; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Some 2022-2025 E-Transit vehicles may exhibit an unsuccessful programmable module installation (PMI) and/or software updates on the GWM using the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System (FDRS) scan tool. FDRS may also show the GWM in the toolbox topology view as having diagonal lines through it, indicating that there is a data error for the GWM. This may be due to missing module configuration data in the Ford database. To correct this condition, select the envelope icon at the top right corner of FDRS, select "Refresh Vehicle Files", then click "Continue". Once the "Refresh Vehicle Files" completes, start a new FDRS session and then reattempt GWM programming. Engineering is working to correct this module data. The concern is expected to be resolved by October 2025. |

| SSM 54137 | 2025-08-19. Service bulletin. UNKNOWN OR OTHER; VISIBILITY/WIPER. Various 2021-2025 Ford and Lincoln vehicles equipped with the rear camera on demand feature may exhibit "Please Check Surroundings For Safety" or "Full View Not Available" messages when the rear camera button is pressed and the vehicle is not in reverse. Inform customers this condition is considered normal operation and does not affect vehicle durability because the full rear view camera image can only be shown when the vehicle is in reverse. No additional diagnosis or service is required for this condition. |
| TSB 25-2361 | 2025-08-07. Service bulletin. ENGINE. Some of the vehicles listed in the Model statement above may exhibit oil consumption and blue smoke from the tailpipe. This may be due to the sealing process of the PCV baffle which is part of the valve cover assembly. |
| SSM 54094 | 2025-08-04. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Some 2025 Transit vehicles may exhibit a parking aid warning message in the instrument panel cluster (IPC) after parking aid sensor replacement. This may be due to parking aid sensor part numbers listed incorrectly in the parts catalog. |
| SSM 54090 | 2025-08-04. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Some 2021-2025 Ford and Lincoln vehicles equipped with SYNC4/Digital Experience may exhibit an unsuccessful telematics control unit module (TCU) software update or software activation during a universal serial bus (USB) update. This may be due to the vehicle connectivity setting being disabled. |
| SSM 54054 | 2025-07-24. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; POWER TRAIN. Some 2025 Transit vehicles with gasoline or flex fuel engines may exhibit an illuminated powertrain malfunction (wrench) indicator with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0773 and/or P097E stored in the powertrain control module (PCM). These vehicles may also exhibit various other powertrain related DTCs setting in the PCM. This may be due to pushed out pins and/or poor terminal crimping at connector C1280. Refer to Wiring Diagram Cell 30-5 for location information. |
| SSM 53983 | 2025-07-02. Service bulletin. UNKNOWN OR OTHER; POWER TRAIN; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Some 2022-2025 Transit vehicles may experience an unsuccessful programmable module installation (PMI) on the body control module (BCM) using the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System (FDRS) diagnostic tool. This may be due to a software to hardware correlation issue. This correlation issue has been fixed on the Ford servers. To correct this condition, download and run the "BCM-Body Control Module Installation (PMI)" application using the FDRS scan tool. If the PMI fails with an error stating "check valid application failed" and the self test shows the BCM responds negatively (purple color coding), replace the BCM with service part number NK4Z-15604-E or NK4Z-15604-F. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 419-10. For claiming, use causal part 15604 and labor operation numbers 12651D and 12651D4 if BCM replacement was not required, 12651D and 12651D5 if BCM replacement was required. |
| TSB 25-2268 | 2025-06-19. Service bulletin. SERVICE BRAKES. Some of the vehicles listed in the Model statement above may exhibit an illuminated brake warning lamp while driving through high altitude areas with diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P050F stored in the anti-lock brake system module (ABS). This may be due to the ABS software level. |
| SSM 53894 | 2025-06-19. Service bulletin. UNKNOWN OR OTHER; VISIBILITY/WIPER; BACK OVER PREVENTION: REARVIEW SYSTEM BRAKING. Some 2022-2025 Transit vehicles equipped with a 360 degree camera may exhibit one camera display inoperative with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) B12BE:31, B148E:31, B12BF:31 and B115E:31 stored in the image processing module B (IPMB). These DTCs will set when only one camera has the condition. Replacement and/or reprogramming of the IPMB will not resolve this condition. To properly identify which camera/circuit has the condition and requires repair, visually confirm which camera display is inoperative (grayed out/blank/blue). If the condition is intermittent, interview the customer to find out more details and/or review the DTCs stored in the IPMB. The DTC with a status byte of 2F (example: B12BF:31:2F) indicates which camera/circuit has the condition. Repair as necessary. Refer to the Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 413-13C. |
| SSM 53764 | 2025-05-21. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN; ENGINE. Some 2020 Continental, 2020-2024 Edge/Nautilus, 2020-2025 Explorer/Aviator/Escape/Corsair/F-150/F-Super Duty/Ranger/Transit/E-Series, 2021-2025 Bronco, and 2022-2025 Maverick vehicles may require an engine cooling system flush to be performed for various concerns. Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-03 has been updated to eliminate the need to remove and install the radiator assembly to perform a radiator flush. |
| SSM 53530 | 2025-03-31. Service bulletin. UNKNOWN OR OTHER. Some 2021-2025 Ford vehicles may exhibit a condition where heated/cooled seats, heated steering wheel and/or front/rear defrost features will not turn on after a remote start is performed through the FordPass application or the key fob. |
