Buying a used 2022 Ford F-250 SD? Check these 17 recalls first
Towing hardware stands out on the 2022 F-250: three separate recalls address trailer brakes, or trailer brakes and lights, that may fail. Airbags appear twice — faulty side airbag sensors and a driver airbag cover that may break apart — alongside diesel fuel pump failures and a driveshaft that may break. No recall here is rated critical. Complaint volume is high for this group: 121 unverified NHTSA reports citing two crashes, four fires and four injuries, led by powertrain, electrical, engine and fuel.
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.
- Hook up a trailer if possible and verify the integrated brake controller and lights work
- Confirm the side airbag sensor and driver airbag cover recalls were completed
- For diesels, ask about fuel pump history and any stalling or fuel smell complaints
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
