Summary

Some 2015-2017 transit vehicles may exhibit trim issues that are not warrantable by ford. Transit vehicles are equipped with interior and exterior trim which are not painted and have a grained appearance. Concerns related to trim paint peeling, overspray, fading, or discoloring, are likely the result of modification. Modified vehicles may be identified by aftermarket badging, labels near the safety decal in the door jamb, and/or names in the ship to field on the window sticker. Other indicators of modification may include custom or two tone exterior paint, smooth and/or body colored exterior trim such as mirrors, bumpers or body side moldings, custom wheels, unique seat cover stitching, or custom trim/moldings. Modifiers typically provide product care and warranty literature with the completed vehicle or on their website.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 27 complaints in the body category.
