The 2015 Ford F-750 SD has 4 recalls, with the most serious involving a steering tie rod that can loosen and disconnect, causing the driver to lose steering control, and a separate fuel system defect that can stall the engine without warning.
On the steering side, the castellated nut securing the tie rod to the steering knuckle may not be tightened to the correct specification, allowing the rod to work loose over time. If it disconnects entirely, the driver loses the ability to steer, particularly at lower speeds where there is less margin to react. The fuel system recall covers a separate condition where the engine can cut out unexpectedly while the truck is in motion, leaving the driver without power in traffic.
The two remaining recalls address a parking brake cable and a seatbelt anchor. A small clip that joins the hand-operated parking brake cable to the intermediate cable can fail, releasing the parking brake without the driver's input and allowing the truck to roll freely on a grade. On the seatbelt side, this recall only affects trucks equipped with a 70 percent fixed bench passenger seat: the floor anchors for the passenger seatbelt were installed in the wrong location, which means the belt may not restrain the passenger correctly in a crash and raises the risk of injury.
