Defect

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2014-2017 Transit Connect vehicles equipped with a Panoramic Fixed-Glass Vista roof. An improper bond may exist between the panoramic roof and the vehicle body and may result in wind noise, water leak, and in some cases, separation from the vehicle.

Consequence

If the panoramic roof panel separates from the vehicle while it is being driven, it may increase the risk of an injury or crash.

Corrective Action

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will remove, clean, and reinstall the panoramic roof panel, free of charge. Ford issued owners an interim notification on May 26, 2020. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 20S22.

Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Protect Every Journey

NHTSA recall information identifies two safety concerns for the 2017 Ford Transit Connect. A Panoramic Fixed-Glass Vista roof may have an improper bond, creating wind noise, water leaks, or possible panel separation that could increase the risk of injury or a crash. A separate seat belt recall involves front pretensioner initiators that may prevent the pretensioners from deploying in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Waiting to verify an open recall leaves a known safety concern unresolved. A free VIN check and prompt service can help you understand your vehicle’s status and take the appropriate next step with confidence.
