The 2025 Ford F-550 SD has 3 recalls, the most serious being a missing brake booster pushrod retaining spring that can allow the pushrod to separate from the brake pedal, causing a sudden and complete loss of braking.
A second recall covers the trailer wiring system: a fault in the towing electrical circuit can leave trailer lights and trailer brakes non-functional, reducing the trailer's visibility to other drivers and removing the trailer's ability to assist in slowing the combined vehicle. On the electrical side, the instrument panel cluster can fail to start up properly, leaving the driver without a speedometer or warning lights while the vehicle is in motion.
