4 recalls across 4 model years
The Ford E450 has 4 recalls spanning 2005 through 2026, with the most serious affecting 2021 models where a wire harness in the rear of the vehicle can chafe against the frame, potentially stalling the engine without warning and disabling both the anti-lock brakes and roll stability control.
The 2024 model year has a transmission recall limited to vehicles with a 6-speed automatic: an internal defect can prevent the park pawl from fully engaging when shifted into park, allowing the vehicle to roll away if the parking brake is not set. On 2026 incomplete vehicles, the electrical connector for the backup alarm can work loose and disconnect, silencing the reverse warning sound and removing an audible cue for people near the rear of the vehicle. Going back to 2005, certain cut-away incomplete vehicles have a compliance label that lists incorrect rear tire pressure, with no associated safety risk described in the filing.
