Crash reported
I have more files and receipts Vehicle Information: •Make: Ford •Model: F-550 Super Duty •Year: 2020 Issue Summary: After a recall service (22E04) for powertrain and transmission software updates, the vehicle experienced a complete power failure within 40 miles, leading to a stall and loss of control, resulting in the vehicle veering into a ditch. Incident Details: •Recall Service Date: ] •Mileage at Service: 63,993 •Incident Mileage: ~64,030 miles •Description: Post-recall, multiple warning lights activated, including powertrain malfunction and traction control off. The vehicle stalled, became unresponsive, and veered off the road. After multiple attempts coming after multiple attempts to call the dealership and corporate with no answer, forced to leave a bad survey and then someone contacted Follow-Up Actions: The dealership attributed the issue to a missing 10-amp fuse. However, prior warnings from the FordPass app indicated powertrain malfunctions since October 2024. A subsequent recall notice (24S78/24V957) in January 2025 highlighted potential high-pressure fuel pump issues leading to power loss. After multiple attempts coming after multiple attempts to call the dealership and corporate with no answer was forced to leave a bad survey and then someone they’ve let me leave the dealership twice now saying that there was nothing wrong with my truck and then to find out that there’s a recall a couple weeks later Safety Concerns: The unexpected power loss and control failure pose significant safety risks. The recurrence of issues post-recall raises concerns about the effectiveness of the initial repair and overall vehicle safety. Requested Action: I urge the NHTSA to investigate this matter to ensure driver safety and hold the manufacturer accountable for providing a reliable remedy.
