1. 10 SPEED ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION - When traveling at a lower speed when approaching a turn (10, 15, 20, 25mph); when you release the accelerator to make the turn, and then begin to apply pressure to the accelerator to move forward, the transmission has not selected a gear and no acceleration occurs. This leaves the transmission between gears (neutral momentarily) and the vehicle has no power to move forward. It has happened on several occasions and I believe it places the driver in a dangerous position to not maintain power to the drive train. 2. FRONT SEAT ADJUSTMENT RAILS - The two rails on each seat are irregular shaped heavy metal rails which the seat assembly slides back and forth on. When getting into the truck (stepping up and moving your legs around the outside corner of the seat), the sharp metal end (painted) scrapes, scratches, or lacerates your calf, as you get in. This has happened on several occasions to me as the driver, and more than several occasions to my wife; who has the seat adjusted further back, thus exposing more of the metal rail to contact with her leg. In my owner's manual, diagrams show an plastic end cap on the front portion of the rails. They are not installed on the 2020 (actually 2021) model. I spoke to the Ford parts department. They are available for earlier model vans (2017, 2018 as an example) but, they are not available for the 2020 model. The price for me to purchase the "plastic" injection molded end caps to prevent future injury are $96 FOR EACH END CAP! Plus tax, over $414. If they were installed on previous models, why not the 2020 model? Injuries are minor but, they are injuries because of a part deletion/omission by Ford Motor Company.

Driving vehicle on the road and experience transmission slipping, about an hour later it started making whining noise, then gear shifted and vehicle skid. Started making light grinding noise while shifting gears. After cooling, van would shift gears but not move, including reverse. Took to dealership and they said van had a transmission leak. Van did not have any evidence of leakage, from puddles under vehicle to any trail of fluid or mess when inspecting under vehicle. Had the van for less than 30 days and they say 10 quarts of oil leaked! there is no transmission fluid on my driveway at all!

When starting the car, I hear popping noises sounding like a spark plug and or a tap/pop noise. I hear the noise every couple of days during startup, driving, and at idle.
