The 1992 Ford F-350 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a fire risk where the dash panel sound insulation can contact the exhaust manifold and ignite in the engine compartment. This affects both diesel and gasoline engine variants.
The remaining recall involves the door latch release cable, which can trap water and freeze in cold temperatures. When that happens, the latch mechanism can malfunction in one of several ways: the door may not re-latch after being opened, the inside door handle can stop working, or the door can swing open while driving.
