2017 FORD F-550 SD Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2017 Ford F-550 SD has 4 recalls, with the most serious risks including a potential fuel leak near ignition sources that can lead to a fire, and driveline components that can fracture at highway speeds and cause a sudden loss of power. The fuel concern involves a protective shield on the fuel conditioning module that can come loose, opening a drain valve and allowing fuel to spill near hot engine components. On the driveline side, highway vibration can crack the driveshaft or transmission housing, cutting drive power without warning. A third fire risk affects SuperCrew Cab models with carpet flooring: if a front seatbelt pretensioner fires in a crash, the sparks it produces can ignite carpet or insulation inside the B-pillar area. There is also a door latch concern where a bent cable or water-induced freezing can leave a door appearing closed but not fully latched, allowing it to swing open while driving.
