The 2016 Ford F-550 SD has 3 recalls, the most serious involving tires that may have been damaged during assembly and can lose air rapidly or rupture while driving, raising the risk of losing control.
A separate recall covers the driver's airbag: dust can build up in the steering wheel clock spring, disrupting the electrical connection so the airbag fails to deploy in a crash. There is also a rearview camera concern where the display can show a distorted, flipped, or completely blank image when the truck is in reverse, cutting off the driver's view of what is directly behind the vehicle.
