2025 FORD F-250 SD

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2025-2026 F-550 SD, F-450 SD, F-350 SD, F-250 SD, and 2025 F-150 vehicles. The Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) may fail at startup.

Risk: An instrument panel display that does not show critical information, such as warning lights or vehicle speed, increases the risk of a crash.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:PEDALS AND LINKAGES

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2025 F-550 SD, F-450 SD, F-350 SD, and F-250 SD vehicles. The brake booster pushrod retaining spring may not have been installed, which can allow the pushrod to disconnect from the brake pedal and cause a sudden loss of brake function. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems" and 105, "Hydraulic and electric brake systems."

Risk: A sudden loss of brake function increases the risk of a crash.

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain F-250 and F-350 vehicles. Cracked fuel return line connectors may leak fuel into the engine compartment.

Risk: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source such as hot engine components, can increase the risk of a fire.

VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY

The contact owns a 2025 Ford F-250 SD. The contact stated that while driving approximately 70-75 MPH, there was an abnormal sound coming from the sunroof, and the contact discovered that the sunroof glass had shattered. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the contact was informed that the vehicle could be repaired; however, the vehicle had to be left with the dealer for seven to ten days. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 6,200.

SERVICE BRAKES

I purchased a brand-new 2025 Ford F-250 Super Duty on April 1, 2025. The truck has an intermittent and ongoing issue where the dashboard displays “Park Brake Limited Function” or “Park Brake Service Required.” I took the vehicle to the authorized Ford dealer, but they told me the problem cannot be repaired. However, when I contacted Ford corporate customer service, they claimed the issue is known and can be repaired, and referred me to safety department complain This contradiction between Ford and the dealer is unacceptable. The issue affects the functionality and safety of the vehicle, and it remains unresolved. I request that NHTSA investigate this issue and pressure Ford to provide a consistent, repairable solution

SUSPENSION

When driven the vehicle approximately 60 miles I had to fight to keep it on the road. Hoffman found suspension was out, the vehicle is chasing the road when driving highway speeds (I upload the findings). This started from the time I purchased the vehicle until now. I purchased the truck from Mark Ficken Ford Lincoln, 7601 South Blvd., Charlotte, NC on [XXX], and left for Middletown, CT the day after. I had to drive at a low speed to keep the Truck on the road. I didn't test drive it because it was new. It is still in the shop for the 3rd time for the same problem. It is not safe to drive. It is dangerous for me and others. The shop does not seem to know how to fix the problem. Ford Motor Company has been notified but has not corrected the problem. I took it to Hoffman Ford in CT and it is there now. The Truck has been in the shop more than I use it. The first two times it was in the shop, they didn't even authorize a rental vehicle for me to drive. It's in the shop now and they did authorize a rental this time. The case # with Ford Motor Company is [XXX], Melanie Krupa, case manager, phone 866-631-3788 ext.79412 email: MKrapa4@ford.com. I uploaded the bill of sale, finance agreement and the repair statements from Hoffman. I greatly appreciate your help. I am paying for a vehicle that is in the shop and is not safe to drive.
