2020 Ford F-350 Owner Complaints

Powertrain and diesel fuel system complaints dominate what 2020 F-350 owners report. On the transmission side, owners frequently describe unexpected downshifts, loss of gear engagement, and the truck dropping out of drive without warning, several accounts mention this happening while merging or pulling into traffic. The diesel fuel and emissions system draws the second-highest complaint volume, with many owners reporting issues tied to the selective catalytic reduction system, including fault codes for NOx catalyst efficiency falling below threshold. Steering complaints round out the top three, though the narratives there are less concentrated around a single symptom. A recurring thread across the diesel complaints involves parts availability delays, with owners noting that repair attempts stalled because replacement components were on backorder.

2020 Ford F-350 Recalls

The 2020 Ford F-350 has two recalls, the more serious affecting trucks built with the 7.3L gas engine and an ambulance prep package, where a narrower rear axle than specified can allow the inner tires on the dual rear wheels to rub against the body and blow out, raising the risk of losing control.

The second recall covers vehicles equipped with manual front seat recliner mechanisms. The recliner can be improperly assembled, leaving the seat back without enough strength to hold an occupant in place during a crash.

What can fail

Some 2020 F-350 trucks with 7.3L gas engines and ambulance packages were built with narrower base rear axles instead of the wider axles ordered. The inner tires on the dual rear wheels may rub against the vehicle body.

What the fix does

Dealers will rebuild the rear axle to the wider specification. For unbuilt vehicles, body builders can accept the base axle with a different body design or rebuild the axle to the wider specification, both free of charge.
