Ford Recalls 2015 F-650 and F-750 Trucks for Fuel Filter Defect

Ford is recalling 2015 F-650 and F-750 SD trucks because a fuel filter defect may cause the engine to stall without warning, increasing crash risk.

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect in the fuel system that can cause the engine to stall without warning, explicitly increasing the risk of a crash, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria for structural defects and significant injury risk.

Plain-English summary

Ford Motor Company is recalling certain model year 2015 Ford F-650 SD trucks manufactured between May 12, 2014, and July 22, 2014, and Ford F-750 SD trucks manufactured between May 12, 2014, and August 4, 2014. The recall involves 1,673 vehicles equipped with Cummins ISB or ISL engines that may have Fleetguard UFF-XT fuel filters (part number FF63009).

The defect involves the fuel filter shell potentially separating from the fuel filter nut plate. This separation can cause the engine to stall without warning. If the engine stalls unexpectedly, there is an increased risk of a crash.

Cummins will notify owners of the affected vehicles. Cummins service centers will replace the fuel filter with a non-defective one free of charge. The recall began in September 2014. Owners can contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 or Cummins customer service at 1-800-223-4583. Ford's recall number is 14V01. Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
