What is wrong
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.

| SSM 48130 | 2019-09-06. Service bulletin. Some 2010-2020 vehicles may exhibit distorted glass with a subtle orange peel pattern or streaking etched into the surface. This is caused by hydrofluoric acid which is used in some car wash solutions as a cleaning agent. Hydrofluoric acid can attack the glass and cause visual distortion and/or discoloration on the outer surface which cannot be removed by further cleaning. If this type of distortion is found, inspect the area of the glass that is covered by the cowl and/or molding. The portion of glass that is covered by the cowl or molding will not be affected by the acid. Hydrofluoric acid damage is not a defect in material or workmanship and is not a warrantable condition. |
| SSM 48018 | 2019-07-08. Service bulletin. Some 2015-2019 Transit vehicles may exhibit inoperative power door locks and/or power windows due to water intrusion in the door to body harness connector C339 (left) or C340 (right). If corrosion is found, service pigtails JU2Z-14S411-RA (gray) and JU2Z-14S411-PA (black) are released to service the body harness (female) side of the connector, without replacing the entire 14401 body harness. Service the pigtail(s) and replace the door harness as needed, while making sure the door to body accordion grommet ends and surrounding body plugs are properly seated to prevent future water intrusion. For claiming use causal part 14631 and applicable labor operations in Section 10 of the Service Labor Time Standards (SLTS) Manual. |
| SSM 47964 | 2019-06-06. Service bulletin. Some 2019 Transit vehicles equipped with power folding mirrors may exhibit the mirror housing vibrating while driving, moving freely, or not moving to the desired position.

Refer the operator to the Loose Mirror detail found in the Windows and Mirrors section of the Owner's Manual to reset the power-fold feature and correct the condition. Transit vehicles equipped with power folding mirrors contain a symbol representing the folding motion, on the mirror switch bezel. |
