| Aug 2025 | WHEELS | To Whom It May Concern: RE: 2022 Ford F-150 – VIN: [XXX] Safety Recall Notice: 25S75 / NHTSA Recall 25V455 I am writing to formally express my deep concern and disappointment regarding ongoing and serious safety issues with my 2022 Ford F-150, which I purchased just over a year ago with 29,000 miles from Big Star Ford in Pearland, TX. From the beginning, my ownership experience has been marred by dangerous oversights and inadequate dealership service: •At the time of purchase, the vehicle was sold to me with a punctured sidewall tire, an issue that was never disclosed. I had no choice but to replace all four tires out of pocket shortly after purchase. •One year later, during my final complimentary Advantage Care oil change, the situation escalated dramatically. Immediately after leaving the dealership and merging onto a major Houston freeway, all lug nuts on the front driver’s side wheel came off, causing the wheel to partially detach. The truck swerved violently, and I narrowly avoided what could have been a catastrophic accident. I returned on foot to the dealership and notified them. To their credit, they retrieved the vehicle and provided a loaner. However, their follow-up response was alarmingly inadequate: •Initially, they only offered to repair one side of the vehicle, and I had to insist that both sides be serviced for safety. •I had to demand replacement of all four tires, which they reluctantly agreed to. •No goodwill services, warranty extension, or formal apology were offered, despite the clear risk to life and property. Now, I’ve received a safety recall notice (25S75 / NHTSA Recall 25V455) related to potential loss of fuel pressure, which could cause the engine to stall unexpectedly while in motion. Ford currently has no available remedy for this serious issue, which again jeopardizes the safety of myself and my family. As a [XXX], husband, and father, I am deeply concerned about the safety and INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,LANE DEPARTURE | I recently ought a 2022 Ford F-150 off of a private seller. It had a clean Carfax when I bought it. About a month after I bought the truck, on July 24, 2025, the following warning lights appeared on my dash all on the same day. Blind Spot Assist Not Available, Cross Traffic Assist Not Available, and Reverse Brake Assist Not Available. Also, my drivers side window would not roll down, and my drivers side lock/unlock buttons would not work. There were not any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. So I took my truck into Gary Smith Ford in Fort Walton Beach, FL. on July 25, 2025 and they came back with the file I have uploaded below with the diagnosis and estimate. Of course the warranty has just expired a few months ago. We tried to make a claim with our insurance company and that was denied. I have also reached out to Ford Customer Service and they refused to help in any way. We were also never offered a loaner vehicle and my truck has been at the dealership for three weeks now. I am currently Active Duty Military and this is now effecting my ability to report for duty, and causing my leadership to question me. It is also effecting my family as we now only have one vehicle. As you can see in the link below, the estimate is quite high. and it is extremely frustrating that Ford has refused to help in any way, and will not provide any logical reason as to why except that the warranty is expired. Especially since this isn't my fault at all. Any help in rectifying this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank You. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | SUSPENSION,POWER TRAIN | Issue #1 Transmission while going up steep incline and gears go from gear 10th to 9th gear there is a hard thump, dealership says they will not do anything if it passes their clutch pack test. Issue #2 rear driver shock absorber was replaced at 38,000 miles due to leakage. 4k miles(1month) later the new shocks paint is wore off and has the same markings the old one has, this will cause premature failure and premature rusting. The sock absorber on the other side has no markings and paint is fine (42k Miles old) This may be due to a defective bolt Bolt (w720200 S440 nut I had to have replaced as it was missing..Then few months later the shock absorber went out and was charged ($358 for repair) now I have a premature wearing part installed again seems to be an overall issue with back end suspension | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Aug 2025 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | The contact owns a 2022 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while her son was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle almost stalled. The contact stated that her son was not aware of any warning lights being illuminated. The vehicle was driven back to the residence. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V455000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The dealer was contacted to schedule an appointment, and the contact was informed that parts were not yet available for the recall repair.

The failure mileage was unknown. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The 8" digital cluster has gone blank. I cannot see any gauges, mileage, fuel or warnings messages. This is a major safety issue that should not be on the owner and should be covered by a recall. I brought it to the dealer to perform a test on the cluster and they came back saying it would need a replacement for $1800. A digital cluster should last the life of a vehicle not go out in the first 3 years just out of warranty. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Rear passenger window stopped working due to switch failure. Unsafe for passengers in rear as road debris and outdoor weather was able to get in. Issue was resolved by replacing master switch | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE | While proceeding through a four-way stop, my vehicle unexpectedly lost driveline engagement. The engine began free-spinning while still in "Drive," and the truck stopped accelerating, leaving me stranded in the middle of the intersection. I had to shift repeatedly between Park and Drive before the vehicle would respond and move again. This is not an isolated incident. The same failure occurred previously in early 2024. The vehicle has also exhibited persistent transmission issues, including gear hunting and harsh downshifts, particularly a hard clunk during the 4–3 shift on deceleration. The dealer has dismissed these symptoms in the past, stating it was due to the transmission being "cold." However, the intermittent loss of driveline engagement presents a serious safety risk to myself and others, especially when it occurs in active traffic situations. This is the second time the vehicle has left me stranded without warning. I’m extremely concerned that Ford has not addressed this recurring safety issue. The condition is unpredictable and dangerous. Immediate investigation and corrective action are needed. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | POWER TRAIN,WHEELS | Have contacted 2 different Ford dealers starting from November 2024, when I bought the truck, to get this recall repaired. Dealers tell me they'll order the parts and get back to me, but never call me back. When I call them they tell me there's nothing they can do. This recall was issued in August of 2023. I've recieved 4 different recall letters since November of 2024 for different probmems related to my truck. It's been 2 years that have gone by with no remedy to repair this recall of the axle bolts breaking...I guess they're waiting until I'm in an accident and sue them before they'll do anything....This is BS...! | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | We were told, our truck had a loss of fuel pressure and flow from the fuel tank due to fuel pump failure. This can cause a lack of fuel delivery to the engine and result in an engine stall while driving. That’s what happened to us. Prior to fuel pump failure, we experienced poor engine performance (misfiring or running rough), a check engine light, and a reduction in engine power. The engine stalled while driving on the highway and increased the risk of a crash being stuck on the side of the road up a hill like we were. I was reaching out to see if we are able to get a refund. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | My truck is/has been experiencing engine power issues on occasions when its hot. There are no engine light warnings. I believe issues is the fuel pump and there is a recall about this exact issue. I spoke to dealership and they said they have no remedy. I chatted with a Ford company customer service associate and he would not help either despite this is a major safety issue. We are afraid to drive the vehicle and no one at Ford will help us. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | PARKING BRAKE,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | The contact owns a 2022 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked in the driveway and attempting to start the vehicle, the brake pedal was pumped approximately four times and the contact pressed the push-to-start button, but the vehicle failed to start. Additionally, there was an unintended activation of the electric parking brake. The contact stated that the battery seemed to be completely discharged. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V509000 (Parking Brake); however, the VIN was not included. The local dealer mobile service technician arrived at the residence and jumpstarted the vehicle, and the technician was able to disengage the electric parking brake. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where the contact was informed that the battery was in good condition, and a system check was completed. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, but there was a language barrier, and no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 24,700. | Crash: No Fire: No | 24,700 |
| Jul 2025 | STRUCTURE | The passenger door does not open from the outside. It only opens from the inside. It is unclear what caused this, as there has been no accident or slamming of the door. There is already a technical safety bulletin for this issue, but this needs to be a recall as it poses a significant safety risk and does not appear to be caused by negligence or collision. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER | This is regarding ford's known issue with their evaporator cited in TSB 22-2089. The evaporator caused a compressor to fail, which caused a power train failure notification in sync and on the phone app. The compressor is under warranty, but the evaporator is not, which causes a $3600 repair (parts and labor). According to the bulletin, the evaporator known issue is NOT considered a threat to life, even though it certainly is a threat to life to not have air conditioning in hotter states. The part is currently being replaced at our local dealership. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | Day time running lamp (DRL) failure. The driver's side DRL is not working anymore on my 2022 Ford F150 XLT with LED light package. The vehicle has 37,000 miles on it. The DRL is a vertical and horizontal strip of white LED's that stay on during the daytime for visibility. I took it to the dealer and they changed the module that runs the light and it would not fix it. They said that the lights are broken in the headlight assembly and it will cost $2,009 to fix the light that is not covered by my extended warranty. Apparently you have to get the "light" package on the extended warranty, when I was told I have a bumper to bumper warranty. How do the LED's burn out that fast. Ford built them into the headlight assemble and they cannot be replaced without buying a whole new assembly. I have seen other vehicles like this on the roadway with only one light working. As an accident reconstructionist, I cannot believe Ford would not take the initiative to fix this for safety reasons. I have done research on the topic and several Ford trucks of this year model are experiencing the same issues. I am surprised this has not become a recall issue due to safety issues. Also, I do not have any aftermarket lighting or attachments that would affect the lighting. Some Ford dealerships use that excuse when the light assembly fails. It is stock lighting with stock bumper and grill and has not been in a front end collision. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
