Before you buy

  1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
  2. Verify VIN recall completion for steering, block heater, wiring, and engine valves.
  3. Check camera operation and windshield recall repair records.
  4. Ask about visibility problems, engine symptoms, and brake repairs.
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
