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.
- Verify fuel filter cap and all applicable fuel pump recall repairs.
- Request steering column, windshield, and driveshaft repair records.
- Identify any Icon stabilizer kit and test wipers and the reversing camera.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
