The 2021 Ford Transit has 6 recalls, the most serious being a fuel leak risk on vans equipped with an Onan QG 2800i generator, where an unsecured fuel hose near the injection pump can leak gasoline and create a fire hazard.
Two separate recalls cover this generator fuel hose issue, affecting vans modified by different upfitters. On the occupant safety side, the front passenger seatbelt's automatic locking retractor can deactivate too early, preventing a child safety seat from being held securely in a crash. A separate recall covers vans modified with QRT-Deluxe or QRT-Max wheelchair restraints, where the securement system can fail to hold a wheelchair in place during travel. Rounding out the list, a software issue can cause the rearview camera to display a blank image when reversing, reducing the driver's view behind the vehicle.
