What are the most common maintenance issues with Ford S-Max and how can they be prevented?

I have recently purchased a Ford S-Max and want to make sure that I am aware of any potential maintenance issues. What are some of the things I should keep a close eye on and how can I prevent them from becoming major problems?

One common issue with Ford S-Max is transmission problems, specifically with the automatic transmission. To prevent this, make sure to regularly check and change the transmission fluid as recommended by the manufacturer.

Another common issue is with the coolant system, which can lead to overheating and engine damage. To prevent this, always check and top off the coolant as needed and have the system flushed according to the recommended schedule.
