2022 FORD F-350 SD Fuelpropulsion System Problems

NHTSA Complaint Draft Vehicle Information: Year/Make/Model: 2022 Ford F-350 VIN: [XXX] Recall Campaign: 25S75 / 25V455 Mileage: 38606 Problem Description: My 2022 Ford F-350 is subject to recall 25S75/25V455 (low-pressure fuel pump failure). Ford notified me on July 8, 2025, that no remedy is currently available. The recall states the fuel pump can fail, resulting in a loss of fuel pressure and engine stall while driving. This creates a serious safety risk of crash or injury. Despite acknowledging the defect, Ford has not provided a remedy, a timeline for repair, or safe alternative transportation. I feel unsafe driving this vehicle, and I am still financially responsible for it. Safety Concern: The risk of the engine stalling while driving, especially at highway speeds, creates an immediate danger to myself, passengers, and other motorists. Resolution Sought: Require Ford to provide a safe loaner or rental vehicle until a remedy is available, OR...

Sudden loss of acceleration at highway speed. Engine sputtered and died as I coasted to a stop on a two lane bridge. Very dangerous location. Was able to restart engine. Ford dealer at next exit. Checked out and no codes thrown. Advised to keep driving until recurrence. Took to hometown Ford dealership and after three days reported no codes, no recurrence, and no problems detected. Advised to keep driving until recurrence.

1 month ago my vehicle intermittently would not shut off. You could hit the Start/Stop button and from all dash board appearances the truck was off, but the truck was still running. I resorted to pulling a circuit breaker to get the truck off. I found NHTSA 10226938 and replaced the Battery Junction Box as prescribed. This fixed the vehicle for a few weeks, but now the issue is back. There is no water intrusion in the BSB junction box.

After the truck had been sitting in the driveway for a couple days I noticed a wet spot underneath the truck, I looked under the truck and noticed there was diesel on the fuel line and the top of the fuel tank was wet with diesel fuel.

The fuel lines are made of a plastic that attracts rodents. At 3000 miles on the odometer mine were chewed thru, I remote started it and saw the fuel dumping and spraying on the ground. Had I not seen or smelt the gas and got into the vehicle before starting it. It would have caught fire and burnt to the ground. Ford would not take ownership of this design flaw, rodent damage is not under their warranty, so I had to pay for the repair which included a 34 gallon fuel cell replacement. I would imagine many other vehicles including the recent SUV fires might have a similar issue. Once the fire starts, there's no way to establish root cause for the failure because all evidence would be destroyed.
