What is being recalled

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.

Why it is dangerous

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

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

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 repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 20V-260 when calling a dealer.
