Check recall 18S20. That’s exactly how mine acted when the bushing was bad

Scroll down 7 topics to “had I only known…….”. See if that takes care of your problem.

Well, Ford finally agreed to a recall on the shifter cable bushing that was posted years ago on this forum regarding the defective bushing on the 2013 - 2016 Ford Fusion. I just received my recall notice in the mail for my 2015 Transit Connect. Get it done as it will save you time and money in the future and you ,know it will happen to you at the most in opportune time. Not an expensive part and very easy install after you know what you are doing, but let Ford do it.

Look back to a post regarding cell phones from April or May 2019. I replied to a similar post them and use a Steelie Ball. Still the best thing I have found.

Did you recently have your wheels off the vehicle for any reason. This happened to me once when I had my tires rotated and the technician nicked the wire on my left front brake. It was an error code from the ABS brakes.

I was just sitting at an ATM machine and it stalled. no warning whatsoever, completely lost data link. I do the same type of work that JLing does. These are great dependable vehicles.

Hey John, we haven’t talked for a while. How are you doing? I’m slowly catching up to you. I’m at 296,000 on my 2015 bought new spring of 2016. Only issues I’ve had with mine were the compressor pulley at 200,000, struts at 220,000 and computer at 290,000 (ouch). Change oil every 8,000; like you trans at 150,000 and a few bulbs and blades. I lost the info on the headlights you’re using. Jim H.

I use an iphone with an Otter Box cover. I mounted the orange and silver ring that comes with the Steelie Ball to the Otter Box cover. You could stick it directly on to the back of your phone. You will also see a brown furniture pad to the cover to prevent slipping or sliding of the phone. Works great for me.

Try a Steelie Ball. Been using one for years. Never comes loose.

Just purchased a new 2015 Transit /Connect van. I can't seem to find a manufacturer for a leather bra. Any suggestions? Thanks, Jim
