4 NHTSA recalls · 244 owner complaints on file

The 2019 Ford Flex has 4 recalls in this group, covering a power cable fire risk, blank rearview camera images, and door trim detachment. Camera visibility and exterior trim attachment are distinct inspection priorities. The record includes 244 owner complaints filed with NHTSA, which are unverified reports. Leading categories are back over prevention with 136, structure with 55, unknown or other with 49, and electrical system with 22. These categories do not establish a diagnosis for an individual vehicle.

Before you buy

  1. 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.
  2. Verify VIN-specific power cable recall completion.
  3. Test the rearview camera for blank images.
  4. Ask for door trim recall repair documentation.
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
