What owners wrote
The ford 2014 interior dashboard lighting is always on, and very often at night due to this condition I forget to turn on my driving lights, making for a hazardous situation. Because the instruments (speedometer, tachometer, fuel and temp gauge) are nested in deep bezels ford had to illuminate them during the day to make them visible in daylight. Ford transit connect without auto-headlights have this unsafe condition that fools the driver into thinking that the headlights are on at night when in fact they are not.
Sensors and rearview camera start going off for no reason when in motion on a city street or highway. This has happened several times most recent is 10/18/2016. Note if vehicle is put into park. And you wait 30 seconds it will stop. But starts up again, after 20 seconds.
