Buying a used 2024 Ford F-450 SD? Check these 3 recalls first
A short recall list for this year — one covering trailer brakes and lights that may fail, and two for rearview cameras that can freeze, blank or fail from water intrusion. What stands out is the complaint side rather than the recall side: eight unverified reports to NHTSA include three fires and one injury, with the largest groups in vehicle speed control and forward collision avoidance. Those driver-assist areas are not addressed by any recall listed for this model year.
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.
- Ask whether the truck has shown unexpected braking, cruise control or collision-warning behavior
- Test the rearview camera after a wash or in rain for water-related dropouts
- Verify trailer brake and light function before relying on it for towing
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
