Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

Fuel system
Filed Jan 7, 2026

I am filing a complaint against Ford Motor Company regarding a known defect in my 2021 Ford F-600 truck that resulted in a catastrophic fuel system failure. The truck has only 110,000 miles and has been maintained appropriately. It is registered in the State of Illinois and is used for my woman-owned small business. A few weeks ago, the vehicle began running roughly. When the dealer inspected it, they reported that the entire fuel system was contaminated with metal and required complete replacement at a cost of $14,500. I later discovered that Ford has a documented history of CP4 fuel pump failures on 2020–2022 Super Duty trucks, including the F-600, which cause metal contamination throughout the fuel system. Many owners have received goodwill or warranty assistance for this exact issue. I opened a case with Ford Customer Care (Case #[XXX]) and provided all documentation. Despite the clear evidence of a known defect and the severe financial hardship this caused, Ford refused to provide any assistance at all—not even covering the parts cost. I was forced to put the $14,500 repair on a credit card at 21% interest simply to keep my business functioning. This situation is financially devastating for a small, woman-owned Illinois business, and Ford’s refusal to offer goodwill assistance for a known defect is unfair and unreasonable. I am requesting help obtaining reimbursement or appropriate relief from Ford Motor Company. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

This article supersedes TSB 22-2087 to update the Part List. Some 2020-2022 F-Super Duty vehicles equipped with a 10R140 automatic transmission may exhibit harsh reverse to drive engagements without diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). This may be due to sticking valves in the main control valve body or suspect input shaft seals (F9) and the output shaft seals (F10). To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure steps to perform the transmission accelerated main control break-in routine for the E and F clutches and if necessary, replace the input shaft seals (F9) and the output shaft seals (F10).
