The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has recently opened an investigation into Ford F-250, 350, 450, and 550 Super Duty trucks with 6.7L diesel engines from model years 2015-2021. The investigation focuses on whether a fracture in the secondary fuel filter can lead to engine fires, which is a serious concern for the safety of drivers and passengers.
To date, the NHTSA has received 27 complaints, including 12 reports of fires and a total of four injuries related to this defect. The proximity of the fuel filter to high heat sources creates a potential for auto-ignition thermal events and fires, putting lives at risk.
