Buying a used 2022 Ford F-550 SD? Check these 12 recalls first
Ten recalls, headed by a stop-driving notice for front wheels that can detach. Three separate recalls address trailer brakes or trailer brakes and lights that may fail, which matters if the truck will tow, alongside fuel pump failures that can stall the engine, breakable wiper arms, and a backup camera that can fail. Nine owner complaints are on file with NHTSA — unverified reports — across electrical, suspension, and engine, including one fire and one injury.
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 the front wheel detachment recall was completed before driving the truck
- Hook up a trailer, or at least test the trailer brake controller and lights
- Ask about electrical and suspension repairs, the two largest complaint areas
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
