Transit V6 (gas): failure modes and parts

Check a specific truck: enter its VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls for open safety recalls, and ask a dealer about emissions recalls and coverage programs, which NHTSA's lookup does not always show. Recall repairs are free on an eligible VIN.

Safety recalls (NHTSA)

Newest first. NHTSA's own summary and remedy text, for the models and years this engine was sold in.

No NHTSA safety recall in our pull names this engine. That does not rule out recalls on the rest of the truck (brakes, airbags, bodies), which this engine registry leaves out; check the VIN at NHTSA.

Bulletins, programs and coverage

Manufacturer service bulletins, special coverages, programs and emissions recalls that bear on this engine's documented failures. Identifier, date and scope only; bulletin text is the manufacturer's.

No manufacturer bulletins are documented in our records for this engine yet. That is a gap in our records, not proof that none exist.

Method: safety recalls come from NHTSA's recall database, pulled for every make, model and year this engine covers; a recall is listed when its NHTSA text names this engine (fuel type, displacement or engine family) and left out when it names no engine. Defect investigations come from NHTSA's investigations file by the same rule, or when the investigation cites a recall listed here. Bulletins and programs come from the failure-mode records on this site, each with its source. Pulled 2026-10-26. How we tier and source facts.
