The 2015 Ford F-450 SD has 3 recalls, the most serious affecting Life Line-modified emergency vehicles equipped with aftermarket Liquid Spring suspension kits, where a mounting bracket can fracture and allow the suspension fluid tank to fall from the vehicle and become a road hazard.
On emergency-vehicle-prepared trucks, a powertrain control issue can cause the engine to shut down unexpectedly and require a cool-down period before restarting, which can delay response times for ambulance and fire engine applications. The rearview camera can also display a distorted, inverted, or blank image when reversing, reducing the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle.
