Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The provided federal record does not include data for 2025—it jumps directly from 2020 to 2026—making it impossible to draw conclusions about that specific model year from this dataset. However, the trend across the generation is clear: complaints peaked dramatically in 2015 (188 complaints, 26 recalls, 1 investigation) and declined each subsequent year through 2018 (55 complaints, 14 recalls), indicating Ford addressed early Transit issues. A slight uptick occurred in 2020 (82 complaints), but 2026 shows minimal activity (5 complaints, 0 recalls), suggesting the model matured substantially. Since 2025 is not represented in the record, there is no data to indicate whether it inherits the improved quality trajectory or experiences a resurgence of issues. Without any federal record for 2025, it is not possible to determine whether this is a good year to buy based solely on the provided data.
