2020 Ford Transit Cargo Van 250 Medium Roof 3dr Van w/148" WB (3.5L 6cyl 10A)
Transmission issues since purchased.
Steering failure after 600 miles. Took 6 weeks in the shop to fix.
Intermittent radio issues like defaulting to FM after leaving off for more than 10 min and listening to AM before..
Doors need to be slammed to lock/latch in the back.
Sliding door needed rubber filler for the door stop open position.
Just really bad initial quality.
Dealer said … trani is fine. Slam the doors it’s a work truck.
Radio was worked on but same issue.
I live in it!

2020 Ford Transit Cargo Van 250 High Roof 3dr Ext Van w/148" WB (3.5L 6cyl 10A)
The only 3 things that are a con: 1) no swivel front seats, 2) there is some type of "thing" or pump or motor that grumbles intermittently - I know its "normal" because every owner remarks about it yet nobody can give an answer as to what it is. It may grumble once or twice, sometimes 20 times before being quiet for the night. 3) When you take off and put it in drive (so you think) it … passes "D" and goes into a manual gear which makes you hesitate or bog down until you click it back a notch to Drive. Other that that- zero glitches at 50k miles
From Cargo Van to Class B Camper!

2020 Ford Transit Cargo Van 250 High Roof 3dr Ext Van w/148" WB (3.5L 6cyl 10A)
We had test driven several competitors' vehicles, and by far, the Ford Transit Cargo Van was the smoothest, comfiest, and in our opinion, safest vehicle for us to purchase for the purpose of converting into a Class B Camper.
