Before you buy
- 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.
- Confirm completed vehicle configuration and VIN-specific recall applicability.
- Check seat back locking and backup camera image orientation.
- Verify brake light operation and ask about power train repairs.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
