Carvana is attempting to sell this vehicle in Lehi, Utah. After speaking with the Ford dealership that worked on it for an “internal transmission repair” they told me the the vehicle’s engine is bad (full long block replacement is recommended and the dealership told me it’s dangerous) and needs a new engine. The previous owner was told this and then turned around and sold it to Carvana. I told Carvana this and they did nothing about it and it is still for sale. Please protect anyone looking to purchase this vehicle as it is not safe.

I WORK FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO FLEET SERVICES. WE HAVE SEVERAL 2014 FORD E-350'S IN OUR RENTAL FLEET. SOME TIME A FEW YEARS BACK MICHELIN RECALLED MANY OF THE LTX TIRES ON MANY OF OUR VANS. THE DOT CODE ON THE TIRES ON THIS VAN DID NOT FALL UNDER THE MICHELIN RECALL. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTO THIS TIRE HAD A TREAD SEPARATION ON A REAR TIRE, VAN FULL OF PASSENGERS. WE ARE REALLY LUCKY THIS VAN DID NOT ROLL OVER. THIS HAPPENED TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS WITHIN THE POSTED LIMIT. THE TREAD AS IT CAME SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE DAMAGED THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE VAN & PULLED A LOOSE HEATER HOSE WHICH CAUSED COOLANT TO LEAK AND THE VAN OVER HEATED & LEFT A GROUP STRANDED IN THE DESERT. WE BELIEVE MICHELIN MAY WANT TO TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT THE DATE CODES THAT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. THE TIRE IN THE PHOTOS THAT STILL HAS TREAD WAS REMOVED FROM THE SAME VAN (SPARE POSITION) BEFORE IT FAILED. YOU CAN SEE IT WAS GETTING READY TO LOOSE THE TREAD AS WELL AND IT WAS NOT ON THE ROAD AND NOT EXPOSED TO EXCESSIVE SUN LIGHT. WE WILL SEND THESE TIRES BACK TO A MICHELIN DEALER & SEE WHAT THEY WILL DO FOR US.

I AM A REPRESENTATIVE FROM AN AUTO REPAIR FACILITY IN CHARGE OF THE REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE OF A FLEET OF EMERGENCY VEHICLES. THIS IS AN AMBULANCE CONVERSION AND AT 38,323 MILES, IT WAS FOUND TO HAVE EXCESSIVE VERTICAL PLAY IN ALL FOUR TIE ROD ENDS UP TO 1/4" AND IN THE STEERING GEAR OUTPUT SHAFT. THERE IS NO LATERAL PLAY AS IN NORMAL WEAR OVER A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME. IT IS BELIEVED THIS IS A DEFECT IN MANUFACTURING AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD.
