The 2024 Ford F-450 SD has 3 recalls, the most serious involving trailer lighting and brakes that can stop working, reducing the trailer's visibility to other drivers and making it harder to control.
Two recalls affect rear visibility. A software issue can cause the rearview camera image to freeze or go missing when backing up. Separately, water can get into a sensor module in the tailgate and cause the camera image to display intermittently or appear as a solid blue or black screen. Both issues leave the driver with a reduced or absent view behind the truck while reversing.
