What are the most common mechanical problems in a Ford S-Max?

I have noticed some strange noises coming from my Ford S-Max lately. I am concerned that it may have some mechanical issues. Can anyone suggest what could be the potential problems and what should I do to prevent them?

A common mechanical problem in Ford S-Max is the transmission failure. It is important to regularly check the transmission fluid to avoid this issue.

Another issue to watch out for is the engine misfiring, indicated by a shaking or vibrating sensation while driving. This can be caused by worn spark plugs or a faulty ignition coil. Make sure to get them checked and replaced as needed.

One advice I can give is to pay extra attention to any unusual noises or vibrations while driving. Ignoring them can lead to bigger problems down the road.
