NHTSA Complaint #11302124 — 2020 FORD TRANSIT

NOTICED THAT A PUMP (FUEL???) WAS CYCLING ON WHEN DRIVER DOOR WAS OPENED AND WHEN KEY WAS INSERTED IN IGNITION. PARKING LIGHTS ALSO TURN ON WHEN DOOR IS OPENED. THE PUMP HAS ALSO CYCLED ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON AFTER ENGINE HAS BEEN TURNED OFF. CHECKED BATTERY WHICH IS LOCATED UNDER DRIVER SEAT AND FOUND THAT ELECTRICAL CABLES THAT LEAD TO SEAT HAVE BEEN DAMAGED BY RIVETS HOLDING SWIVEL SEAT WHEN THE SEAT IS MOVED FORWARD AND BACK. CAREFULLY MOVED THE SEAT BACK GUIDING THE CABLE BUNDLE UNDER THE RIVETS. THE PUMP NOW DOES NOT TURN ON WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED BUT STILL CYCLES WHEN THE IGNITION KEY IS INSERTED. HAVE MOVED THE TRANSIT OUT OF THE GARAGE DUE TO POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. PHOTOS OF WIRE CABLE ARE INCLUDED. TRANSIT WAS JUST PURCHASED ON 1/20/2020 AND THE SWIVEL SEATS ARE NEW FOR THE 2020 MODEL.
