Buying a used 2024 Ford F-550 SD? Check these 2 recalls first
A short list for a Super Duty: one high-severity recall for trailer brakes and lights that may fail, and one medium recall for rearview cameras that can freeze or go blank. Neither was issued with a stop-driving or park-outside instruction. Two owner complaints are on file with NHTSA — unverified reports — touching steering, wipers, electrical, and forward collision avoidance, with no crashes, fires, or injuries reported. The record is thin partly because the year is recent.
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.
- Test trailer brake and light function with an actual trailer if the truck will tow
- Cycle the rearview camera several times looking for a frozen or blank image
- Run the VIN yourself, since a recent truck may still have unperformed remedies
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
