SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
PREMATURE BREAK WEAR...FRONT BREAKS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT JUST UNDER 30,000 MILES INCLUDING NEED FOR NEW ROTORS. AT 39800, TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT FRONT BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. FORD IS SAYING THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH PREMATURE BREAK WEAR, BUT THIS IS VERY, VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD RESULT IN BRAKE FAILURE. *LN

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM
THE FORD TRANSIT CONNECT NEEDS A WAY TO TURN OFF THE TRACTION CONTROL IN SNOW AND ICE. I GOT STUCK IN THE SNOW TODAY AND BECAUSE I CAN NOT TURN THIS FEATURE OFF I COULD NOT ROCK THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE SNOW, CREATING A TRAFFIC JAM UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO BE TOWED OUT. PLEASE MAKE FORD CREATE A WAY THAT CAN ALLOW THIS SYSTEM TO BE TURNED OFF. *TR
