We are a transportation company. And have bought 4 of these vehicles regretfully we are so overwhelmed with all the issues they have had, a number of major issues like speed sensors going bad throttle body have been replaced transmission replacement with only 60,000 driven... loss of power while on the road you name it. Currently have 2 of the vehicles at the dealership waiting on transmissions we have contacted Ford for some sort of assistance, we are losing money by having our vehicles sit at the dealership waiting to get serviced all the time, is one issue after another its gotten to the point that we cross our fingers everyday hoping for our drivers to make it back with no issues and always thinking where is the next van going to break down and how we are going to deal with it. Very frustrating having to deal with this everyday headache.

Flex coupling between transmission and drive shaft routinely fails between 30,000 - 35,000 miles. This can create a dangerous situation where the drive shaft could be forced into the passenger compartment when it comes into contact with the road. Additionally, the failure of the flex coupling could cause loss of control of the vehicle. There are numerous reports of these failures on Ford vehicle forums as well as the failure that I have personally experienced. After reading of the numerous failures, I inspected the flex coupling on my vehicle at 30,000 miles and found that the flex coupling had visible cracks. A failure of a drive line component, which could cause great bodily harm, at 30,000 miles, is unacceptable in a modern vehicle.
