The 2016 Ford F-650 SD has 3 recalls, the most serious involving two separate risks of unexpected vehicle movement: a potentially incorrect steering column that can fracture its park pawl and allow the truck to roll, and rear air brake hoses that can chafe against the axle housing, leak air, and reduce rear braking ability.
There is also a parking brake concern where the clip connecting the hand-operated parking brake cable to the intermediate cable can fail, leaving the truck free to roll when parked. The air brake and parking brake recalls only affect vehicles equipped with rear air suspension.
