Four problems related to steering have been reported for the 2015 Ford Transit Connect. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2015 Ford Transit Connect based on all problems reported for the 2015 Transit Connect.
Steering knuckle developed a crack through what appears to be defective casting of the part. Crack was noticed prior to separation of steering assembly. This could have created and extreme hazard if not noticed prior to total failure.
The steering rack is not moving freely. Struts, tie rods and u joint are moving freezing but the steering rack is not. This is a huge safety concern because if the steering rack were to lock up and then allow me, the driver, to turn the wheel, that would absolutely cause me to crash. My local automotive service has diagnosed the problem.
The vehicle is hard to turn directions. I was leaving a customer home and the vehicle power steering just stop operating. This vehicle has electrical power steering.
We've only had this vehicle for 6 months and have had tire replacements, transmission issues, pedal recall, and the doors unopening twice (recall).
