open recall for paint peeling on the gas tank, could cause a fire. No Ford dealers in my area can take care of the problem.: I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a Ford dealership’s failure to properly support and address a safety recall on my vehicle. As you know, safety recalls are issued to protect consumers and ensure that potentially dangerous vehicle defects are corrected promptly and at no cost to the vehicle owner. When a dealership fails or refuses to properly handle a recall repair, it raises serious safety and compliance concerns. Despite bringing my vehicle to the dealership regarding the recall, the issue has not been properly addressed. I am requesting that this matter be reviewed and that appropriate action be taken to ensure the recall repair is handled in accordance with federal safety requirements. For reference, my vehicle information is as follows: Vehicle Make/Model: Ford VIN: [XXX] ___________Recall Number (if known): ___gas tank peeling______________Dealership Name & Location: ____5 dealerships in my area_____________ Date of Visit: __called all dealers so did ford customer support_________________ I respectfully request assistance in ensuring that the recall repair is completed properly and without further delay. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact owns a 2022 Ford E-350. The contact stated while driving 60 MPH and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle failed to stop as needed. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact desperately depressed on the brake pedal and the vehicle eventually came to a complete stop. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and the mechanic stated that the power steering pump needed to be replaced, and that the vehicle was previously repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V089000 (Steering, Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was contacted but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was 12,361.

Received a notice on a "Customer Satisfaction Program 24N03" Instead of issuing a recall for the Hydroboost power steering pressure and jumper lines they instead extended the warranty. People have had their braking and power steering go out while driving and this is simply unsafe and unacceptable. They need to replace their faulty "quick connector" to a hard connector before people are injured. My dealership refuses to do this as it is not a recall. Thank you for your consideration

Is 14 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2021 and 2026, roughly 3 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.

How does it compare with other years? The 2022 has 14 complaints on file, fewer than the 2021 (22). Of the 8 model years of the Ford E-350 we cover, the 2021 has the most (22). Older model years have had longer to collect complaints.
